Charlie and Lola
This title sequence caught my eye because it flows really nicely from one scene to another. The composition of each shot leads into the next sequence of movement. For example the way charlie is on the straw and the pink milk flows past and leads you to lola's actions. It's the same style of animation as the tv show and I think this is relevant to my work.
I also like how they don't make it obvious that they are brother and sister in the title sequence but they use key recurring themes from the tv show such as the pink milk and the butterflies. These appear on all charlie and lola merchandise too.
I also really like the use of a plain background which emphasises the animation in the foreground, a lot of the backgrounds in the tv show are textured with crayon colouring and materials fill the background but I think it's really effective they've kept it black.
Charlie and Lola is a Bafta Winning tv show, and I believe this is primarily down to the fact due to the narrative, it is simply charming i believe the connection Charlie and Lola has is the stereotypical older brother younger sister one and oozes sweetness and love, much like the story of This Moose and Me.
