I like the overall design - though I'm still not sure on the logos.

Also, I think Newsnight should be free from corporate branding, and have its own identity.

I like them. I would maybe change the '24' to a less bold font, and maybe not use Gill Sans for the place name behind the globe. Otherwise, there great, I like the colours used, they all seem to be authoritive and brighter than the current titles.

I really quite like the idea of the globe, although it looks a little bit lonely on the side. I really don't like the BBC News logo, it looks like the dire ITV News logo. The vertical strip and the "News" font really doesn't make it look very good.

On the whole, the layout is certainly different, and the background is very good. Perhaps reconsider fonts and layout.

Woah! Love these.

Look good - but would be a pointless revamp really. Too similar to what we have now, and that look has already been refreshed a couple of times.


I think though maybe if you kept your basic idea, but moved things around the screen a bit more so each brand did look visually different, but still connected, it might work better.


But as it is, even though it's superbly done and looks very good, quite frankly it bores me!

Really good, but the 10 and N24 Nighttime titles look too bright, with the orange, it seems too bright, and would fit on Breakfast.

All good - apart from the 24 logo's text not being properly aligned if you get what I mean because of the boldness. 3.5/4.

EDIT:
Pluss - the Overnight titles could only be used for 24 - you would have luck using the Overnight titles on World lmao - the world never sleeps!

Agree that the 10 and overnight could be darker, but on the whole these are really nice. They seem almost too uniform laid out like this, but would probably be fine on screen. Personally I would have gone for a huge '24' to set it apart from the programmes.

Edit: Just realised that doesn't make any sense. You get the idea anyway.

I really don't like the colours on the backgrounds of these, the globes, the place names and the logos are great thow.

Love it. Love it. Love it.

Personally I would like to see the News 24 eveing a bit less daytime-y, but they are really really good.
