Evaluation for E4 ident

I personally think my E4 ident could have gone a lot better as it wasn’t made to the creative level I had hoped for, I had big plans but didn’t thoroughly think them through, and came to realise it would be too difficult to do drawn animation with the ideas I had. Overall this is the first time I have single handed used final cut pro on my own, I think I did well in this. I could have made my Ident better by using a brighter background and going at a slower and more even pace. I think my E4 ident gives a relaxed and laid back approach to the promotion of the channel. 

Ideas for E4 ident

Broken Heart E4 ident
- a broken heart falling from the sky, into the sea then the E4 logo jumps out
- would have a comical touch to a girly ident
- would be fitting for the shows shown on E4 as they relate to love and humour
- music draws you in
- eye catchy, bright colours
- its not the obvious E4 ident
- not to complicated
- cartoon sound effects as the heart falls and drops into the sea
- minimum background needed

Come and go ident
- 20-30 seconds long
- hint of old fashion flicker effect
- welcomes people in with a suttle effect
- calm soothing music
- the idea is that little balls slowly form the E4 logo then disappear one by one, the reform
- plain background
-very therapeutic
- the balls give the effect there is a chain running along the logo
- silver edit

Rolling Pin ident

- Not the normal E4 ident
- very different to other E4 idents as its more formal
- very basic but not boring
- with the use of kitchen equipment its instantly different fro all E4 idents
- rolling pin rolls over a ball of dough reviling the e4 logo, then out of no where a dough ball splatters the logo
- it would have a comical touch with the logo being splattered with a dough ball
- good sound effects with rolling noises

Train ride with flag ident
- Train coming across the screen linked to flags from different nations then at the en of the train the E4 logo is revelled
- very suttle not to graphic bbut not to simple
- good sound effects with train noises
- wouldn’t need a heavy background
- glags of different nations = equal
- has a very formal approach
- catches all kinds of people
