Client: OWN/The Rosie Show
Description: For the Rosie Show title sequence, we decided to go with a fun colorful claymation/miniature Chicago environment. One of the reasons Rosie liked this look was because she envisioned this clay city changing throughout the season. So we ended up creating different versions of the open such as a Halloween and Christmas version. Andy Montag was the lead 3D modeller/animator, but the entire Harpo Design department ended up helping out in various ways. It was a lot of fun to work on and was a nice departure from the standard city footage montages so many talk shows use for their title sequence.
