Why can’t an Australian network do something as cool and simple as a shark eating a meat version of their logo? Love it.

Thats right! For one week I’ll be in the UK, I leave Canberra on the 12th, get to London on the 13th, and then leave London on the 19th and get home on the 21st. Hope to update you during the trip with the wonders of the UK.

Exercise your imagination

I may not like the traditional ABC idents, but they do seem to know what their doing when it comes to promos. This new one for the corporation’s recently redesigned website is fantastic, and follows on the ‘Exercise Your Imagination’ and “painting with light” themes started online.

I would love to see this idea used as the basis for some new ABC idents, but either way the ABC’s website has never looked better, and hopefully its a sign of more changes to come.

Nice, short ABC2 ident, very cool scenery, I like the use of the white-on-black “2” at the end. Enjoy (all 14 seconds of it).

The new weather shares the same colour scheme as the rest of the broadcast, the maps and animation are cool and seamless, I’m just not sure about the colours.

SBS has relaunched its news broadcast with new graphics and a new set… I think the video speaks for itself.

New ABC.net.au

The ABC appear to have just (or at least in the past few days) updated the feel of their portal site, abc.net.au. The whole site feels a lot cleaner and I hope they continue the new feel into their idents..

The ABC has also set up a website to explain the redesign and get your feedback. Check that out here.

On a rather eventful trip to Sydney I managed to grab this Channel 7 ident. It was the first time I’d actually seen the non-regional idents (as I live in Canberra) for 7 and although I’m not a fan of idents just being cross promotion for other shows, 7 do a pretty good job gluing together stock footage into something cool (if not very short).
