Elizabeth - The Unseen Queen

I teamed up with Peepshow Studio to create the Graphics, Visual Design & Title Sequence for ‘Elizabeth: The Unseen Queen’. The documentary released in honour of The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee reveals for the first time private home movies of The Queen as a young girl, and tell the real story of her life as a Princess - through her own eyes and in her own words from across her reign. The film features incredible unseen home movies of The Queen and family which have been beautifully restored by the BFI. We were tasked with producing a Title Sequence, Chapter Headings, photo sequences, diaries and letters. (Scroll down to watch a short behind-the-scenes film).
