The YouTube Red original series "Ryan Hansen Solves Crimes on Television*" had its global premiere on Oct. 25… and when the show’s creators set out to find the perfect company to create their main titles, design-driven production company Sarofsky made their short list. Well known for its work on title sequences for blockbuster films, TV dramas and comedies, the company's creative team in Chicago was thrilled to land the opportunity.
Breaking new ground in the hallowed realm of TV crime programming, this Hollywood-based action-comedy series from Rawson Marshall Thurber (director of "Central Intelligence," "We're The Millers," and "Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story") teams actors with LAPD homicide detectives to solve crimes. It stars Ryan Hansen, Emmy nominee Samira Wiley, and a who's who of stars playing bizarro versions of themselves, including Joel McHale, Donald Faison, Eric Christian Olsen, Jon Cryer and Kristen Bell.
Sarofsky's project news release provides more details on the assignment and the team's creative solution. To watch "Ryan Hansen Solves Crimes on Television*," please visit http://youtube.com/Red.

Boma | Camp Sugar Brand Identity
Rebel Wilson's Directorial debut “The Deb” premiered as the closing night film at this year’s Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF). Adding a touch of creative flair to the film’s debut, the team at Boma helped in crafting the brand identity for Wilson’s production company, Camp Sugar.
“Rebel and her team approached us with this adorable character design and a simple question: ‘Can we make this happen in time for Toronto?’” shares Jason Cohon. “As huge fans of animation, and with such a fantastic concept from Josh and Meredith on Rebel’s team, it was an easy ‘yes!’”
The :05 identity opens in a serene forest scene featuring a hand-carved wooden sign reading “Camp Sugar.” As the camera reveals two hands gently holding the sign, a little girl playfully peeks from behind, inviting the audience into the world of Camp Sugar. Boma was tasked with designing and animating the 3D environment and character, delivering a fully rendered introduction that will serve as a long-lasting signature for Rebel Wilson’s films for years to come.
“We had so much fun making this and hope to be able to do many more unique versions for all of Camp Sugar’s films.”
Based in Los Angeles, Boma was created to fill a need for quicker turnarounds and tighter budgets while maintaining quality at the highest creative level. With a fully remote pipeline, global partnership across three continents and a team of senior creative talent, Boma is equipped to scale projects rapidly, regardless of budget or timeline constraints.
