The Business (2003 TV Series)/Title Sequence

The title sequence of the CBS drama television series The Business, which first aired in 2003, depicts a three-dimensional map of the series' fictional world, projected onto the inside of a Dyson-like sphere, and lit by a small sun contained within an armilla at the sphere's center. As the camera swoops across the map and focuses on the locations in which the episode's events take place, complicated clockwork mechanisms let buildings and other structures emerge from the map and unfold. Meanwhile, accompanied by Lorne Balfe's title music, the names of the principal cast (with the symbols of the characters business next to the names) and creative staff are displayed. The sequence concludes after about one-and-a-half minutes with the title card and brief opening credits indicating the episode's writer(s) and director(s).
