Here is my complete re-design of the ITV Breakfast show 'Weekend', which is currently pre-recorded and presented by Aled Jones. I think this was a wasted opportunity, ITV could have invested more into it. I propose a show that is presented by Charlotte Hawkins, Ben Shepard and Louisa James which runs from 7-9.25am each Saturday and Sunday. I've created a new studio, logo, graphics, titles and website design, along with a new concept for the show altogether. This project has taken just over 3 months to complete. Two studios were binned, the final studio was the third studio I'd created for this project. A number of logos/title cards were designed, I chose two to work on further, before eventually deciding on the one above. I think it's simple, modern, elegant and fits with the ITV brand. Weekend closely ties in with Good Morning Britain and Lorraine. During Weekend, previews of what's coming up on Good Morning Britain and Lorraine on Monday are shown. These previews are recorded on the Friday (or Thursday for Lorraine), then shown before the ad breaks each hour.
The graphics:
The inspiration for the graphics came from Sky News. I found it difficult to design the graphics for this; I didn't know initially whether to include a ticker. I decided on a news ticker in the end. All graphics are 16:9 safe. Resources are obviously limited in the ITV regions at the weekend, so local news would end up being pre-recorded on the Friday. In order to get the latest news, regions have their own news tickers and weather bugs.
The studio:
The programme is anchored mostly from the desk, but the soft area accommodates bar stools/chairs for interviews and equipment for live performances. Louisa sits as the desk permanently to do the headlines and the papers. Charlotte and Ben sit at the desk to begin with, then move between the soft area and the desk. Louisa's place on the right hand side has a computer under the desk, the other seats do not. Photos below in spoiler tags:

So that's my latest project. As I've said previously, the entire thing has taken over three months, so I'd appreciate some valuable feedback I can use to improve it. Any comments I can use to improve are welcome. On my last mock, I had lots of comments on not rushing to make something that's half baked (like a lot of my mocks). With this project I've really taken my time and wondered if it's the absolute best I can do. That's why I decided to scrap various studio designs and graphics designs. As I've said before, I don't mind poor ratings, I just want to know why I've received some. On my last few mocks I've noticed that within 5 minutes of posting I've received an 'Awful' rating already, which certainly isn't enough time to actually read my comments and watch the mock. You might not think it's amazing, but please be reasonable (not aimed at anyone in particular).
Thanks for taking the time to look at my work, I really do appreciate it. Regards,
Aaron
