Animation Company Devon | James Martin’s French Adventure | Pushed Ltd

This hand drawn animation title sequence was created for James Martin’s French Adventures series, which documents James’s travels through France as he experiences the varied landmarks and local places of interest, regaling viewers with his adventures and culinary experiences as he samples the wide variety of dishes from each of these regions. This short, introductory title sequence seeks to tie in the overarching themes of cheery adventure, culinary inspiration, and local eats as viewers join James on his adventures through other countries as well as in his own home for some personalised meal inspiration through his other series. The illustrations that were created help to advance the theme in a meaningful way and tie each individual episode into the overarching concepts of the light-hearted series.

For this 30 second title sequence, our team stylised the illustrations in order to give them a French feel, using typical French colours to further advance the theme and transport the viewers into the heart of James’s journey. We used After Effects and Illustrator to give life to these ideas and to tie all of the themes together in order to match and promote the feeling and heart of the program. The short clip allows viewers to get a light-hearted glimpse into the series as James journeys far and wide through France, taking in the best wine and vineyards, fresh fruits, good eats, and idyllic local scenery. Upbeat music, a quick pace, and cheerful illustrations all serve to promote Pushed’s goal of blending the reality and overarching brand of the series with the cheery ambiance of the title sequence as a way to both complement and advance the series itself.
