The Christmas Ident Thread 2005

Ooher! Never mind, never a fan of Fox's idea of pres so this is probably going out on a limb for them.

Heres that Hallmark ident for anyone that's never seen it.

The BBC really need to go back to a nicely animated ident.

I agree the kids don't cut it on BBC1 and there's only so much you can do.

Absolutely, the thing with live action is there's only going to be so much you can do; as I've mentioned before, I'd rather have a singular symbol instead of loads of people dancing or running about.

Just thought I'd mention that UTV have tonight also added this year's Christmas effects (the snow and lighting effect) on their ECPs and breakbumper:

On the ECP, the ray of light appears from behind the middle box and reveals itself slowly, getting bigger the further it comes out. It then slowly retracts (repeating itself if the ECP is on screen long enough)

The breakbumper is the same as usual but features falling snow over the UTV logo.

Does anyone know when ITV 1 will show their Christmas Idents?

Some peaple are saying xmas eve
TV ROOM PRES

Video (22sec 2.01MB) includes ident plus Advent calendar sting day 17.

What happend on bbc three becouse i missed them :

OK I admit I was totally wrong about the BBC1 and I bow my head in shame.

But I know for sure that ITV1 will launch their ident of Christmas Eve- 100% sure. I presume the ident will have ice in the background with like a ice bast halo around the logo with no characters this year.

ITV2 Xmas is 23rd Dec- 90% sure
ITV3 is 23rd Dec- 90% sure
ITV4- ?
C4- ni Xmas ident this year- 60% sure

And, we should believe you this time, WHY, precisely?

Without putting too fine a point on it, your track record, so far, resembles the nutritional value of a decomposing goat.

the more i see of bbc four's idents, the more they remind me of westcountry's idents. they're fantastic!
