Sydney communications studio The Explainers launches new titles for Mythbusters series 10
Sydney communications studio, The Explainers, has reinvented the Mythbusters’ titles with a fresh ‘back-to-basics’ approach for the cult TV favourite in 2015.
With season 10 seeing the controversial exit of co-hosts Carey, Grant and Tori, The Explainers had the challenge of bringing the focus back to original hosts Jamie and Adam and with a beautifully shot opening sequence with graphics showing the precise data analysis needed for mythbusting as well as the love for blowing things up.
The titles were shot on a super high-speed Phantom camera and production was co-ordinated from The Explainers Sydney office with San Francisco (where the series is filmed).
Says Matt Taylor, managing director, The Explainers: We have had a long history with Mythbusters over the years and were so excited to have the opportunity to re-imagine the titles and create a bold new sophisticated tone for season 10.”
The new titles have just gone to air in the US and will hit Australian screens later this year.
