I have an GMB video which is now on my channel, but I can't submit a new idea yet. I've looked at all your criticisms, so it should be near perfect Smile .

The GMB videos aren't much better in my opinion.


The new one? The latest video is what I'm referring too. Anything before the BBC News video is old.

Here's the updated version. I'd make a new thread but it won't let me. Would be nice to climb up to 3* haha Smile

There's a multitude of issues to fix before it's worth 3 stars.
- alignment of text in boxes
- font sizes
- speed of the ticker
- the ticker should be cropped outside of it's main area
- "convenient" text - so much text fits it's box exactly, which fits exactly into the space available that I can't work out what the design is
- poor transitions (across the board)
- capitalisation
- spacing / padding
- overall attractiveness

Please give me more specific information, what about the transitions makes them poor? for example.

They are poor quality transitions. Look at them critically. When did you last see a slow gradient wipe used on British television?

There is enough information in my post for you to work from. You don't need to be looking that hard to see that there is an issue with the alignment here:

The BBC News logo is out of proportion.
To be fair, that exact logo was used on-air for the One, Six and Ten.

Certainly not this.

Anyway - there is a lot to he cleaned up and fixed like other members have said. Once you do that it may be okay.
