ABC Generic Ident 1989

Hi.

I've been experimenting with After Effects CC and I'm looking for pointers on my new video. I want constructive criticism not nasty stuff or any b/s


The video is my interpretation on how ABC could have used a modified version of the 1989 generic ident for ITV

It's a good start, but a lot is needed to improve it.

Thanks for replying, Can you or anyone give me any tips on how to make it better?

I think you could have had the lines-thingamajig in the background moving like in the real thing, which can be achieved by cross-fading the blank generic backgrounds (which can be found here http://web.archive.org/web/20050204023039/http://apfs-tv.com/masterclass.htm) at an appropriate speed. Also the ABC Television text could be scaled down, again take a look at the actual 1989 idents as a reference. Nothing wrong with the ABC logo, but the ITV logo could also be scaled down to fit in the box.

Not a bad effort (the logo dissolve was actually quite accurate) but it could have done with a bit more movement.

Thanks so much. I've taken the suggestions on board and am experimenting with them
