We're less than a week into these new "idents" and I'm still thinking "WTF?!?" when I see them, especially the clean version above.
We can really only hope forthcoming, yet to be filmed, Onemess "idents" are at least in some way an improvement on what we've got now.
They couldn't possibly be any worse ... could they?
I'm not at all optimistic about subsequent ones being any better. I sincerely hope I get proved wrong!
Excellent insight from Lambie Nairn about the state of BBC branding - its clearly not been done properly, but I hope for improvements with the unfilmed 'oneness' idents. The first two are terrible, but the set can certainly improve.
Just in the same way that man boobs looks out of place leading into the news.
I'm guessing BBC1's massively trailed show Let it shine will be preceded by exercise class, as that must be the go to ident for high octane occasions, not exactly the old fairground circles ident.
My father before the 6 o'clock news said "Look, they're off again!" at the swimmers as they turn around and walk into the sea.
I said, "Where do you reckon they're swimming to?"
He said "Calais!"
Which according to my phone, is a hell of a swim from Clevedon!!! Even by land and sea, the fastest route is 4 hours and 39 minutes assuming no traffic delays.
I'm not being funny, but I assume MLN was happy about his private email being cut and pasted into the public domain ? He's expressed opinions ( that we all concur with) but in any business, especially da medja, it's not always wise to expose what you might think, it can prejudice any possible future engagement

Anyone seen the Let It Shine trail. The star doesn't appear to be dead in the centre of the image, but the overlaid graphics are, which results in the graphics not marrying up properly. Most noticable is the BBC One 'O' which you would have thought should align in the centre of the central star cut out.

I doubt MLN were care, I get the funny feeling that reply is mast generic reply for the many people who have contracted him. Of course MLN might be thinking about 2007 idents.
^ ...My view about that is, only if he expressed, in the email, that the info is not to be divulged to anyone else. If he didn't, then I wouldn't have thought he really minds a great deal.
In my opinion it's good manners to assume nothing of that nature, and always seek approval.
