RTE One will relaunch late October. RTE filmed loads of stuff in Greystones, Wicklow and passed it on to Red Bee.

I know they definately have footage of a woman making bread, a kid drawing/painting on a wall and a teenager searching for stuff in their room. It must be for either idents or another "Part of Life" thing.

Let's hope it's better than the news revamp and the ITV Network Confused ...


The latest is that its all change on November 3rd

Close enough Very Happy

Where did you hear that? Any idea what it will be like?

They must be keeping the current logo - the current RTE TWO logo was based on it. But then again they did change the news one...

I thought you did have an idea Rolling Eyes. You seem so certain, yet you ask what it will be like.

Well it seems its official now - 12 new idents to debut 3rd November reported both in the Indo (needs registerationhttp://www.unison.ie/irish_independent/stories.php3?ca=42&si=1711868&issue_id=14803 ) and sister newspaper the Evening Herald. Apparently reflecting the new Ireland without alienating the traditions of the old (translation: more people idents). The Herald, as usual tries to stir things up by quoting unnamed RTÉ sources that are not happy with the new look.

I would imagine the logo will stay, its the template for most of the RTÉ channel identies now, but then again look what they did to BBC ONE...

That would depend on whether it is RTE that's being rebranded, or just their TV channels

Maybe they're changing the lot like the BBC in 1997

BTW, that link above is subscription only

Hmm...Interesting. I hope they aren't ugly! I don't see why they would change the corporate logo, since it still looks fresh and modern.

Noticed this on RTE.ie:

All I said was that I knew there was x amount of footage from Greystones and that it would be late October (give or take 3 days). I didn't know if there'd be a new logo (computer says no) and no one knows what th graphics will be like - that's the bit Red Bee did. RTE only provided the footage.

The TV Room Plus posted:
Red Bee Media - in conjunction with RTÉ's promotions team - has produced a new presentation package for RTÉ One. The changes - scheduled to air from Friday November 03 2006 - will see the introduction of twelve new idents as well as a new presentation graphics system.

Red Bee's creative director, Steven Aspinall, said: "We designed the RTÉ One idents to express the common rhythms of Irish life. Our differences might be great, but they are dwarfed by our similarities. The on-screen presentation is a clean modern graphic style designed to complement the idents. The new look celebrates the invisible ties between the people of Ireland and positions RTÉ One as the common link."

RTÉ One's head of promotions, Jim Booth, added: "We are delighted with the level of co-operation and standard of work that Red Bee Media have delivered on the new look for the country's premiere channel, RTÉ One. A long process of consultation within RTÉ has resulted in twelve new idents that we are confident reflect the values of a newer Ireland, without alienating the traditions of the old."

The new on-screen graphics package will allow for in-vision clips and 'coming next' alerts


Well I was almost right. One website [type RTE1 idents into google] has (tiny) pictures from 4 of the idents. There's one with a kid holding their hand out in front of the sun, one of those fire sparkler things, some blurry coloured lights, and something i can't quite make out. Another one has a woman with hair curlers in eating something (?). Tiny RTE One logo to the left of the screen. No new logo. Not sure if they're anything special but I guess all we've seen is 5 tiny images so far. Mostly look better than the ITV excuses for idents...


Let's get some graphics of our own - that say "SDM007 2 - 0 Seamus823496528134561".

You didn't have to edit your post to make it look like you had the images before me you know.

There are easily two minutes between my post and your edit. And you missed one.

Okay. the 21514 means this:

I was born in the 2 nd month on the 15 th day in the 14 th hour

Really, Get over yourself.
Edit:
Also, I was googling to find those images, and I did find them, but you posted them first. I didn't copy them from you.
Edit:
Dear God! I didn't copy them from you I went to the site they were on. Rolling Eyes . I cannot accept defeat, if there is no basis for losing. I honestly found it. It was a 2 minute difference because I also was reading my mail, and It wasn't my priority to post a bunch of stupid pictures.
