Continuity Backdrops

A bit of isolation timekilling inspired by the upcoming Zoom chat, and seeing the Transdiffusion LWT continuity backdrop, here are a few interpretations (not recreations) of some others. On HTV, they didn't use CSO, it was a physical set with a cut out logo stuck on a garish hessian, so they're kind of in that style.

Thought I'd have a go at an interpretation of a close-up ITV News shot too.

Stay safe, stay sane.

Not bad!

Excellent work! I'm giving you a ten thumbs up on that.

These are fab. Any chance of getting a Tyne Tees one?

There are more over at Transdiffusion... https://www.transdiffusion.org/2020/04/11/zoom-too

Any chance of a tutorial?

Thanks, yes there certainly is

My Mac is super old and freezes too often for me to attempt a tutorial I'm afraid. But the process is really straightforward.

First redraw the logos in Illustrator so that you've got clean vector versions, then import them into a blank Motion project. Use the replicator function to give them depth by making them 3D. Then create a colour solid background and position the logo on the background. Finally add a few spotlights (remembering to turn on 'shadows' so that they throw shadows) and Bob's your uncle. Hope that helps.

please can you do an updated version of ITV logo please

Yes it does. Thanks so much.

There are a few bbc ones here too which they've added to their archive - https://www.bbc.co.uk/archive/empty_sets_collection/zfvy382

Wonderful, simply wonderful.
