That era was all done in house at the BBC rather than by an external agency.

I think they used a lot of 3D stuff and some custom stuff written for Linux to generate the 'headline text' on N24.

I think I once came across the website of the person at the BBC that designed those title sequences. Would love to find that again.

I assume 2007's update was also in-house?

I'm quite curious on where that design comes from. Especially the shapes of the red stripes around the globe. Does it mean something?

I think that this title is symbolic , the creation of a news planet, new words, every events change the world, and build a new step, a new world, maybe ... It is my mind, what do you think ?
For me it is the creation, the beginning , new step every headlines, bulletin

I can't say I was ever a fan of those titles, but I did like the animated reveal they used towards the end of its life.
