Director Mick Jackson said, “I can honestly say that, for me, working with Shine was creative collaboration at its very best. Every new thought or note seemed to evince, not just a hugely stimulating dialogue, but actually seemed to inspire them to even greater heights of invention. The work Shine did on “Temple Grandin” – especially those magnificent titles – is just extraordinary. Truly groundbreaking. What a true joy to work with Shine. Can’t wait for the next opportunity!”
“Temple Grandin” was nominated for a Primetime Emmy Nomination for Outstanding Main Title Design. This is one of the Shine team's eight Emmy Nominations.
