Our design centred on two simple ideas: An elegant art deco font in light and bold weights representing ‘the thin one and the fat one’ and the use of a growing beautiful ampersand to represent the affection and magic that existed between the greatest screen partners of all time. Our work consisted of the main titles, a graphic map/journey sequence in the middle of the film and the end credits. All our design work followed director Jon S. Baird’s desire to have a nod to the period but utilising modern techniques and sensibilities when appropriate. The travelling sequence maps and theatre logos were based on the look and feel of contemporary designs that we researched and then recreated.
