Kestrel shoots the whole series in the forty minutes after sunset, so the titles had no business being brighter than the show. Everything here was shot at the same hour over six evenings on the same ridge, one lens, no fill. The type enters on the wingbeat and is gone before the sky finishes turning. The series logo is the only element that holds more than nine frames.
