Thanks again for your comments. Here's another programme specific globe also for a big Saturday nighter.

You can guarantee that if the BBC use that, the ending will be cut off with the majority of junctions.

Doesn't one of BBC One's continuity announcers post on this board? Maybe we could get him to have a look at these, these are brilliant!

It's annoying how enthusiasts like us can churn out some brilliant simple designs. While "professionals" at places like Red Bee get paid to produce things like this.

However, the enthusiasts can work to their own rules, and don't have to consider the restraints and limitations imposed by the production process, overall creative direction, available assets, time or budgets.

It's quite clear that little effort had been spent on the aspects of the BBC Three new look that will become redundant in a matter of days. They had to come up with something that ties in to the new look which has been developed as a web page first and foremost. So yeah, it looks crap, but it looks like a web page, and its only going to be used a couple of times a day for a month, so it'll do.

Genuinely curious as to why you reuploaded my image to another server? I thought maybe you resized it from MacBook Pro with Retina Display size (because I was lazy and just used the Metropol thumbnail instead) but it appears to be the same resolution.

Possibly the best thing that's ever been posted on this forum.

Their creative direction is fairly obvious (MTV and gifs) but it's been executed in the worse way possible without any care to make it look right. The current BBC Three trailer stuff will likely be shown on the other BBC channels, several times a day until the BBC Three brand gets suffocated and disposed of in a few years.

Are you using Safari on OS X and/or iOS, because pip2's videos never work for me on there either. I use Firefox as my main browser on OS X and they playback fine on there although take a while to load. I think it may be something to do with how the video was exported?

I am. I will try using an alternative browser. Thanks Phil!
