Title Design & Credits
Cinematic title sequences and credits that set the tone and create memorable first and last impressions.
Title design and credit sequences create the typographic and visual elements that open, close, and brand a production. From elegant main-on-end credits to elaborate animated title sequences, these elements establish tone, satisfy contractual obligations, and leave a lasting impression on audiences.
We connect you with title designers who create distinctive opening sequences and professionally formatted credits for your production. Our team coordinates design development, contractual credit requirements, and technical delivery to ensure your title work is visually compelling and meets all distribution and union obligations.

Feature-title and end-credit design in After Effects, Cinema 4D, and Houdini for Cartoon Saloon animation premieres, RTÉ broadcast brand, and the Galway Film Fleadh feature catalogue
Here is how this works in practice. Title design and end-credit design for productions finishing in Ireland spans the full range from cinema-feature opening title sequences to broadcast-series title cards, end-credit roll deliverables, and trailer-and-teaser title work. The Cartoon Saloon Kilkenny cinema-animation pipeline (Wolfwalkers, The Breadwinner, Song of the Sea. The Secret of Kells. Four Best Animated Feature Oscar nominations) has produced some of the most distinctive today's Irish feature-title sequences. With the hand-drawn cinema aesthetic carrying through every opening and end-credit frame.
Here is the short of it. Live-action features including Banshees of Inisherin, The Quiet Girl (An Cailín Ciúin), Belfast (Branagh 2021), Normal People, The Wonder, Sing Street (John Carney). Once (John Carney. Oscar-winning first song). Brooklyn (John Crowley, multiple Oscar noms), and the wider Element Pictures and Treasure Entertainment feature catalogue have shaped the today's Irish title-design vocabulary. RTÉ broadcast brand-and-title work (RTÉ News, RTÉ Sport, The Late Late Show, Prime Time. Reeling in the Years. Fair City) defines the country's broadcast title language. With TG4 Irish-language title cards covering the Gaeltacht broadcast catalogue.
Here is the breakdown. Title design pipelines run Adobe After Effects (the industry-standard motion-typography and title-design tool, specific for the 2D-driven and kinetic-typography end), Maxon Cinema 4D (the broadcast and feature-title 3D standard. With the C4D + AE integration powering the bulk of mainstream Irish broadcast and trailer-title work). SideFX Houdini (for the high-end procedural-typography and FX-heavy feature-title sequences). Adobe Illustrator + Photoshop for graphic-asset preparation, and bespoke font-licensing through Monotype, Adobe Fonts, and Type Network for the cinema-and-broadcast catalogue.
Here is what that looks like on the ground. End-credit roll preparation runs Endcrawl (the cinema-industry standard for end-credit roll deliverables with version-control and database-driven credit-management) and bespoke After Effects + Premiere Pro roll setups for the broadcast and indie-feature tier. Deliverables include cinema-grade title sequences as ProRes 4444 XQ + EXR sequences at the feature's native resolution and color space (ACES + Dolby Vision HDR for the streaming-sites tier). Broadcast-spec title cards for RTÉ + Virgin Media + TG4 + BBC NI + UTV at 1080i 50 / 1080p 25.
Sites-tuned title-and-trailer cutdowns for YouTube + Instagram + TikTok + LinkedIn + Facebook with bilingual English / Irish (Gaeilge) versioning where the production's distribution scope needs it.
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What's included in a title sequence package?
Our packages typically include concept development, style frames, storyboards, animation production, music synchronization guidance, and delivery in multiple formats. We work collaboratively throughout the process to ensure the final sequence perfectly captures your vision and enhances your production.
Can you handle union credit requirements?
Yes, we're experienced with guild and union credit requirements including WGA, DGA, SAG-AFTRA, and IATSE specifications. We ensure proper credit order, sizing, and timing while maintaining creative presentation. We can work with your legal team to verify compliance.
How long does title design take?
Timeline depends on complexity. A simple lower thirds package might take a week, while an elaborate main title sequence could require several weeks to months. We establish clear milestones and maintain communication throughout to meet your production schedule.
Do you create titles for international versions?
Yes, we design title systems that adapt to multiple languages and markets. This includes creating flexible templates, managing text reflow for different character counts, and ensuring cultural appropriateness. We can deliver localized versions for any territory.
