Framestore

 created the title sequence seen beginning with The Eleventh Hour. They were credited for their efforts throughout series 5, but their credit no longer appeared as of A Christmas Carol. They were the first group or individual to get a specific on-screen credit for creating a Doctor Who title sequence.

On their website, they claimed that the job was a particularly harrowing one, begun only three weeks before the transmission of The Eleventh Hour. They credit Christian Manz, Framestore's visual effects supervisor, as the individual who "wrote the treatment, directed and supervised the project" and say that he was responsible for the title sequence's "new font". They also point out that 2D and 3D artists from their Icelandic branch were required to make the project's tight turnaround time. Thus, the 2010 title sequence may be the first time that Icelandic nationals worked, however indirectly, on Doctor Who.

Framestore are a highly prestigious visual effects firm who have provided graphics for television since the late 1980s, and have been been working in theatrical film from 1994 onwards. Amongst their credits are several James Bond title sequences and scenes, scenes in James Cameron's Avatar, G. I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra with Christopher Eccleston, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, and many others. They have been twice-Oscar-nominated, for Superman Returns and The Dark Knight. They also provided the visual effects for at least the third series of Primeval.
