We also created sections of the open where the paper 'jams' and you see the hand of the person making the copies, and the image streaks off the edge of the frame the way it does if you move an image while it's being copied. Footage of a wall covered with flyers was then shot on a stage in New York, bringing us into the photocopy montage as well as out of it. The photocopy motif was repeated throughout the show. Because of the semi-documentary format of the reality show, LDG was asked to provide an extensive graphics package. The tone of the many different lower-thirds, transitions and informational elements continued along the lines of the open.
Elements wipe across the screen as if they are being scanned by a photocopier.
Lower-thirds resemble scraps of photocopied paper. It sets up a stylized version of the world of the show.
