I didn’t watch any of the Olympics this year, but I did capture this early this morning.
I’m not sure if it’s made by Seven, or if its something supplied by the IOC, very slick either way.

I saw my first ident from Five while I was in the UK, and I thought it was brillant, these are just as stunning and creative.

These little 4 second pieces have been popping up just as a program goes to commercial on Ten (more succinctly known as breakbumpers), there seem to be a quite a few variations of them, most with people I didn’t recognise (Neighbours people I’m guessing).

The ABC continue to make excellent promo’s for the West Wing, but this time they’ve gone all out and made a “There’s more to..” ident for the show as well.
The show starts Thursday February 23 at 9.30pm, and according to the ABC;
A major overseas addition to ABC TV’s program lineup is the multi award-winning US drama The West Wing which starts screening this month on ABC Television, the channel many of its Australian fans have always considered to be its rightful home.

Its been nine hours since the new idents launched, and I’m still not sure what to think (they have a certain old ITV1 feel about them).
That said, they really do manage to use the celebrities in a very tasteful way, it more subtle and candid then the usual “cavalcade of stars” thing that Nine has traditionally gone for.

This is what I’ve got so far from the relaunched Nine network (although some of it is Win because I’m in Canberra). The first video is the ident that ran before the Today show. The second video is Jessica Rowe’s welcome to the Today show and the third is what I assume is the new Nine logo panning from a camera back to the new Today set.
More to come throughout the day.

When I saw the first few seconds of this Australia Day ident I thought I was in for just another rendition of ‘Advance Australia Fair’, I’m so glad it didn’t work out that way.

Every year on Australia Day Triple J have their Hottest 100. Its a countdown of the 100 best songs of the previous year, and is the worlds largest music poll. So in that tradition I have compiled a list of the 10 most downloaded idents from this site in 2005.
You can watch the countdown in the Top Gear inspired video above (warning: iMovie amateurism abound) or browse the list below the fold..
