A single creative lead for the opening: idea, tone, rhythm, typography, image, and final delivery.
04 / Services
Title sequences for film + series.
A clearer way to begin: opening titles, motion-led identities and title design built around the world of the story.
04.1 / What we make
Openings that help the film arrive.
Main titles, episode openings, end titles, and title cards built around the world of the film or series.
Practical and digital motion systems for screen projects that need a memorable first signal.
Small, fast tests for commissioners who need to see the rule before committing to the full sequence.
04.2 / Why it helps
For commissioners, producers and directors.
The work is ambitious, but the process is legible. We find the visual rule, test it in public, and keep every decision attached to the story the audience is about to enter.
04.3 / Questions
Useful questions before the first frame.
When should a title sequence studio be brought in?
Early is best: while tone, world and rhythm are still being shaped. ROLL can also help later when a project needs a clear opening idea quickly.
Does ROLL work outside New Zealand?
Yes. ROLL is based in Aotearoa and works with film and series teams worldwide.
What does a title sequence include?
Creative direction, visual research, tests, typography, motion design, practical image-making, edit rhythm and final title delivery.
Can we start with a proof of concept?
Yes. A smaller test can help a commissioner, producer or director understand the opening before the full commission begins.
Bring us in while the opening can still change the room.
