Mainframe has completed titles and stings for new Five show Swag. Described as a cross between Police! Camera! Action!and Trigger Happy TV, the series tries to tempt members of the public into committing illegal acts. For the titles, a sinister 3D control room was created in Lightwave for the presenter to carry out his "swags", while stings were animated on After Effects. The bluescreen shoot was also carried out at Mainframe's new Clerkenwell studio. The producer was Adam Jenns and the designers Nic Freeman, Marcus Moresby and Mark Warrington. The 8 x 30-minute series is a co-production between Monkey and Guy Ritchie's company, Ska Films. The Lock Stock?director is thought to have had some initial involvement in devising the series, even though he admitted to a women's magazine that he hasn't watched TV in more than three years. Swag airs from Sunday 23 March.
