Does anyone know if there is a long version of the ‘Bales’ and ‘Market’ idents? or is that how short they are?

hey i’m currently doing a project based on the whole series of channel4 idents, does anyone know who is the designer(s) of the whole thing?

Not that it really matters as it’s kind of fiction, but the stage indent… Jesus, mess mess mess.

And that audio design – ouch. I know most people wouldn’t know the difference but that must sound… weird. Who still uses 3way boxes in a touring application…

Great all the same! I still love it!

AH! You’ve missed one! There’s a guy watching Countdown with all these bits of 4 going around him, they have his dinner on and the remote for the TV and stuff. But it’s VERY rare now.

They are a fantastic set, of the lot I have to say my favourite is Pylons, it’s the simplicity of it, along with the fantastic soundtrack.

And yet another ident from Channel 4 was shown last night (19th October) before the Channel 4 news, this time of a rocky bay type place on the sea, very similar to the “Lost” setting

Great set of idents there! You do appear to be missing the sofa idents which was shown sometime in September.

By: Mark

Mark — Wed, 27 Sep 2006 15:06:38 +0000

There was yet another new one during before ‘Lost’ last night. It was on a plinth in Trafalgar Square, with Nelson’s Column in the background. Just thought you should keep an eye out.

Another New ident launched – this time showing a man slouched on a setee with pieces of setee swivelling around to make the 4 logo. Maybe a daytime ident.

i think theres definitely going to be a few more idents released by channel 4 because i read that that the music for all these idents was commisioned by a company called ‘blue’ , based in london. at the time the stage, tokyo and harbour idents had not been shown. it said on their website that “8 of the 15 idents are currently on air, with more set to follow shortly”.

Channel 4’s presentation is by far the best in the UK however you don’t have the complete collection yet. There is one that is filmed at a large cargo port/harbour and the four is formed from shipping crates and cargo cranes. It’s been used before big brother for the past few days.

These are fantastic. Thanks for sharing!

There’s an elusive one at a harbour as well

By: Ornsack

Ornsack — Fri, 30 Jun 2006 13:07:36 +0000

There’s another one. People setting up a gig, and all the amps and rigging etc make up the 4. Then, I think that’s it!

By: Matthew Keenan

There’s one missing from the collection. It’s a concert stage with the 4 made up of lighting equiptment, speakers, rigging etc. It was introduced at the same time as the awesome ‘Tokyo’ ident.

By: Graham

Graham — Thu, 29 Jun 2006 17:30:51 +0000

I have to agree – these some of the best idents I’ve ever seen. Some people have complained that the ‘4′ isn’t formed for long enough, but I think that’s part of their charm…

There’s a longer version of the Alien ident here: http://thetvroom.com/p-ch4-2005-b.shtml

They only really played it in full when the new set was introduced, I haven’t seen it like that since.

The Tokyo ident is playing out in 1080i on C4’s trial HD channel.
