Lilt

The brief

Lilt is a series about small sounds — a plucked string, a struck match, a door that almost closes. The producers wanted titles with the same restraint: no montage, no fireworks, forty seconds that tune the ear before the story starts.

What we made

One cobalt line, drawn in time with the score. We animated to the stems, not the mix — the line hesitates where the cello hesitates and resolves half a beat before the picture does, so the audience leans in without knowing why.

Type enters the way sound does: a name fades up like a note decaying, then holds. The toolkit ships with six timing variants so each episode keeps its own tempo inside one hand.
