Nice to meet you.
Nina Saxon has created main titles for more than 300 feature films and television shows over the past 30 years. With a talented team of artists, graphic designers and animators, Nina Saxon Design is a filmmaker’s key asset: industry leaders such as Lasse Hallström, Mark Gordon and Carol Littleton have relied on Nina to set the tone for an impressive array of movie titles.
NSD’s mission is to create work that is consistently original, evocative and relevant. While many boutique design firms are limited to one “look,” we are adept at variety of moods and treatments:  whether minimalist or extravagant, modern or quaint, bold or romantic, our ability to interpret a client’s unique vision is a rare combination of communication skill, imagination and technical savvy.
We have produced main and end titles for recent films such as “Above Suspicion,” “Salt,” “The Departed,” and “Dear John,” and modern classics including  “Forrest Gump,” “Beauty and The Beast,” and “The Hunt for Red October.”  In the television medium, we’ve produced main titles for hit series on CBS, NBC, ABC and HBO.
We take pride in our corporate identity work, from static 2D concepts to fully animated 3D enhancements of existing artwork.  Our branding clients include Alcon Entertainment, New Regency Entertainment (holiday edition), Steven Bochco Productions, Grubb Street Productions, and Interscope/Polygram Entertainment.
While we bring the same exacting artistry to every project, rest assured we can work within your budget parameters.  Please read what our happy clients say about working with us, then give us a call to find out how we can add the visual spark that will bring your project to life.
What our clients have to say…

  • I contacted Nina in 2004 about creating a logo and title design for an independent film. I had been a fan of Nina's work for many many years - who wouldn't want the person who did the feather for "Forrest Gump," on their own film? And there are so many others, memorable films with great title designs that were memorable in themselves. Nina is an artist and a professional and one of the true legends in her field. You are guaranteed to have a unique and thoughtful design that captures the soul and personality your project.

    - Jeff Arch, Writer/Director, "Sleepless in Seattle”

  • I've known Nina for 20 years professionally, and have hired her too many times to enumerate, on projects both big and small. She is probably one of the most cost-effective designers in the biz, and gives Directors and Editors great confidence in her acumen.

    - Clark Henderson, Post Production Supervisor, “Holes”

  • Nina's creativity and sensibilities in creating title sequences are unsurpassed. She understands the dynamics of all the moving parts in post production when it comes to creating titles on time and on budget. Her visits to the cutting room were always productive and enjoyable. Nina's titles make a significant contribution to any project.

    - Michael Tronick, Editor, "The Cowboy Way", "True Romance"

  • Nina Saxon is one of the most talented title designers I ever worked with. A true professional. She has a great eye, an inventive mind for visual design, and the experience to deliver your titles just the way you hope for. I have done a number of pictures with her, and hope to do more.

    - Paul Hirsch, Editor, "Deck the Halls", "The Fighting Temptations"," The Adventures of Pluto Nash", "Mission to Mars", "Wrestling Ernest Hemingway"

  • Nina’s the kind of collaborator every artist wants to work with. You give her an idea, something you’re after, something you can’t quite touch on, and she comes back and shows it to you, only better.

    - Bobby Moresco, Writer/Director, "10th & Wolf"

  • Nina Saxon was excellent at working within our always pressing time limits, always accommodated our feedback, and we were pleased with the end results.

    - Barry Levinson, Producer/Director, "What Just Happened", "Disclosure"; Writer/Director, "Man of the Year", "Tin Men"

  • Working on the "Salt"’ opening credits with Nina Saxon was a pleasure. She has a keen visual sense and deft creative insights. Nina understood the story we were telling, and  found a way to express the duality of the film's main character, in a bold and graphic style that sets the tone for everything to come.

    - Phillip Noyce, Director, "Salt"

  • Nina came up with many excellent, creative ideas, delivered everything we needed within our budget. It was a pleasure working with her.

    - Nancy Rae Stone, Executive Producer, Beacon Entertainment

  • Nina came up with the most haunting, romantic and compelling ideas to emphasize the atmosphere and content of our film.

    - Lillian Birnbaum, Executive Producer, "The Yellow Handkerchief"
