BAD SISTERS
TITLE SEQUENCE
This BAFTA award winning sequence, playfully entitled “The Prick Trap”, is a Rube Goldberg-style machine featuring items and props from the show as well as many handmade contraptions inspired by the drama. Our set feels like the house our sisters grew up in; it’s a space filled with family ephemera and in contrast, many of JP’s belongings (a model version of his boat “True Grace”, taxidermy, religious iconography). A dark yet comic chain reaction, as the sequence builds, the threat towards JP grows as more murderous objects are introduced and start to cause havoc (lighter fuel, an axe, a series of books titled ominously), ultimately culminating in a burning portrait of The Prick himself.
The sequence won the Titles & Graphic Identity category in the BAFTA Television Craft Awards 2023.
