(2006)

The BBC was pleased to enlist Filmgate’s expertise for their latest docu-drama Krakatoa – The Last Days. We were asked to create the title sequence, and were called on to tackle a compositing and animation task at the last minute – the dramatic drowning of a mother and her two children during a devastating tsunami. Though the jobs were brief, the BBC was pleased with the results, and Filmgate looks forward to working with them again in the future.

Krakatoa – The Last Days depicts the violent eruption of Krakatoa that took place in 1883, killing 36,000 people and unleashing a series of terrifying tsunamis. This spectacular docu-drama, starring Olivia Williams and Rupert Penry-Jones, uses eyewitness accounts to tell the true story of one of the most destructive volcanic eruptions in history.

The program was aired in the UK on May 7 at 9:00pm, BBC1.
