BBC TV Rebrand Project

A continuation on my 2013 project... don't worry I've matured (January 2015)

So which style should I continue with?

The first one, but without the numbers in the background, and bolder, better font.

I am continuing with the Numerals with Style box version (but without the numbers/letters due to inconsistency with BBC One, being a One and BBC Arts being an A.) I have selected a few fonts. Comment what you think about these fonts and say which font is better!

Nexa is good and so is Neo Sans and Oswald, the other two would definitely not work.

Maybe experiment with the top 3 fonts first before reaching an overall decision.

Aargh would be good for BBC Arts but I don't know about the others.

Nexa works. So does Interstate. Neo Sans seems very "A Question of Sport" though, doesn't work.

Keep going with all of this, looks very promising!

I've decided to go for Nexa. I felt that it was the only one that fit with the rest of the logo.

If you're wondering what the guidelines are for the logos, here they are!

You are right in going for Nexa!

You may wanna darken the red on the news ident to make it different from BBC One.
Your guidelines are good too.

How about BBC ONE not being red? Why not try a few different colours for it? Or perhaps have NEWS a different colour?

Which colours would work though, that's the question?

The only other colours BBC One has used in the past is Blue (light and dark), black and yellow. I'd say it may be a moment for a new colour to come out (not green, pink or yellow though).

I think it's about time this was faded back in on the main list.
This has gotten so much better, the font looks great and the guidelines are also quite good.

If I may suggest something, the BBC One red colour should be a little warmer - the shades you've picked are a bit pink!

3 stars, well done. Keep up the good work!

I've been watching this mock and as Francis has said it's gotten a lot better.

The colourings are a bit boring for me though if I am honest. I think the blue kind of colour works for BBC two but BBC one and BBC News clash too much, again as Francis said maybe try a warmer red for BBC one? The black is just quite unappealing and I feel BBC arts implies vibrancy - maybe add some colour.

I am not going to give this a mark yet because although I can give judgement on logos I have discovered weak points that will maybe be eradicated when we see these logos put to work - good luck.

I look forward to seeing this continue.
