BBC Sport - ident (1996)

Concept and creative process

The brief was to update an existing generic BBC Sport ident for all BBC TV sports programmes and events. Designer Steven Aspinall shot some moving lighting gobos on 35mm film for the background to give the globe an aura of light around it. The ident was computer generated by 'Eye', a new start-up company at the time and the music/sound design was created by the BBC Radiophonic Workshop.
