Odyssey in Rome
designer: Joost Korngold • comment
The title sequence emulates the effect of images – texts and fragments of film – reflecting on bits and pieces of broken mirrors. Sometimes the fragments of text precurse the modest main credits, which are set in a basic sans-serif on top of the dynamically moving background. The result is a fascinating example of type in motion and, although there is a lot happening on the screen at the same time, designer Joost Korngold managed to keep the balance due to the calculated motion of the graphic elements. The warm, atmospheric song serves as the perfect counterbalance to the clean images.
Odyssey in Rome documents the life of director Abel Ferrara during the filming of his 2005 feature Mary.
