Task 4- Understanding the design of idents

The idea of the ident
I have chosen to look at idents around the age of teenagers. Here are some examples of this type of channel idents.











The ident mainly starting off normal and then something starts happen. In the idents tell me that the channel will be funny and full of randomness. The idents last between 10seconds to 30seconds. The idents are mainly slow which mean there is no tension in the programmes. its short and easy to remember so people who watch this will easily recognise it and stay watching it. These idents are entertainment-led because they are random so people don't think of it much and enjoy it. These idents give me the idea that the programmes will be funny and enjoyable.

All these idents have randomness in common. The conventions between these idents is that they are all animated. In my own idents i need to make them abit random but still giving the sign of what channel it is.

The E4 Idents





The E4 ident is mainly based on making a boring place into a very exciting place. The ident is animation. The information E4 is trying to show to its viewers is that this is a exciting channel and if you watch you will be full of excitement and wonder. The idents last between 20-30seconds and the onscreen tempo is slow to make the channel seem relaxing and welcoming. It makes a happy mood to the viewer as they see this as it just all random stuff happening also it makes them feel at peace. The idents are entertainment led because its all just random stuff moving around the room doing random things. When i watch these idents i feel the channel will be fun because of all the randomness that is occurring during all the idents and wonder what is going to happen to the yellow bear.

All the idents have in common is a place that looks boring and then random stuff starts to happen. In all the idents the key conventions is the little yellow bear which is always getting into danger.
it is different because it starts off all normal and then one thing happens which turns into another object moving and then the whole place is going mad. I would see this ident being played thought out the day as. I think these idents would be shown around
