Semester 2 - Brief

Brief -
Our first task of this semester was to research about Broadcasting Idents. An Ident which I remember clearly is the BBC 3's homevideo ident, which included videos from the internet of fans of the channel. They include introductions for programs, and adverts for the channel. This was memorable to me because it was unique in including ordinary people in their channel.

Research -
The channel I have chosen to do is the new UKTV channel called 'Watch'. I have seen many recent adverts for this channel on tv and think they are quite interesting. The scope for using this in the project is good, using the eye used in watch idents as a character which I can base my animation around. As this is a new channel there isnt many idents out there but here are a few images and videos which I found:

Here is a video of a couple of there idents. The quality isnt super but you can see reasonably clearly what happens -
