ITV Discussion Thread

If I'm honest those I'm A Celeb bumpers would look good as idents.

well they may be used before the programme, then it would be like FIVE

I agree.

Even though I never watch IACGMOOH, they are very good brand reinforcement tools, and just show how versitile that logo can be in the right hands.

EDIT: Although those don't seem to show the 'hd' tag, so I assume that's why I've not seen them.

Anyone realise those promos are using the pre itv1 HD launch logo?

They are actually a mix of the two, and the reason of this is because they are supposed to look like wood or something to match the environment more.

Since the new logo, ITV have made sure to use it everywhere, so do you really think they would make such a silly mistake on some major promos?

Does anyone else notice that the ITV 1 HD feed seems to jump just before a ITV Trailer or a show somes back on? Is that because the adverts are played out by Granada (Leeds) but the ITV 1 HD feed is still coming from London?

I tend to notice it more before they opt into out of Regional News and Weather, can't say I notice it much on the adverts. Most obviously is when its 6pm on the dot, and the last trailer before the News concludes, usually a trailer will end with "also on ITV1 HD" then you hear... "....HD", it's also noticable when Daybreak hands over to Regional news aswell, and when the opt does end you do miss the first second or so.

It's not too noticable, granted nowhere near as smooth as ITV1 in SD, but I'm used to watching Granada on ITV1 HD upscaled now, so I don't mind.

I've not seen it mentioned in the thread, but I bought Harry Hill's TV Burp Gold 3 on DVD today and it included the ident for the newly named ITV Studios Home Entertainment, basically if you haven't seen it, it's just an extension of the current ITV Studios ident with Home Entertainment added underneath, with some rather odd music playing, but it does match the blob thing on the ITV Studios ident, certainately different to the old ITV DVD ident.

Like this you mean?

Does seem a bit weird!

Also heres the ITV DVD one http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MH4-C1qOOvw&p=18492B06B01F5042&playnext=1&index=18

I don't know why they didn't use a variation of the ITV DVD for the "ITV Productions" endcap they used to have.
Should use the music on the current "ITV Studios" one aswell. Although I do prefer the ITV DVD music.

Wow, that music/drone/noise is really horrible. It sounds strangely sinister.

That's almost the 21st century version of this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0rqIcazSmvA

Now that was creepy! It scared me as a child!

ITV3 HD and ITV4 HD have been added to the Sky EPG.

ITV3 HD must be the most pointless HD channel of them all. I can't see any HD content in the next two days (at least).
