BBC Sport: Rugby League - sting (1987)

Concept and creative process

This was one of several identical computer animated stings, designed for BBC Sport promotion by John Kennedy and produced at Electric Image. The concept was a fast ascent up through the supporting struts of a steel structure to a screen projecting a BBC Sport logo. Without stopping the camera continued its move around to the back of the screen, which opened up like a Venetian blind to allow the camera to see through to the sporting action.
