Journey across a frightening winter landscape with the first Winter Olympian.

This title sequence follows the epic quest by a legendary Inuit hero who has to draw on all his skills to restore light and peace to his dark and troubled world.

Director Marc Craste worked with designer and Illustrator Jon Klassen and a team of artists at Studio AKA to create the look for the 60′ title sequence – plus trails and cut-downs – for The BBC Winter Olympics, staged in Vancouver in 2010. The sequence was developed from an idea conceived by the creative team of Damon Collins, Tim McNaughton & Freddy Mandy at Ad agency RKCR and won a BAFTA for Title design and Two D&AD pencils.
