Mouseboy once again getting very snappy at British members who dare to make any comparisons with America.
Yeah it’s me I think I got use to the graphics now I think I said that as well in retrospect :-(dosxuk wrote: ↑Fri 30 Jun, 2023 11.44 I think somebody needs to take a time out from watching BBC News. See if you can guess the poster (these are all from one person in the space of a week)...
if it was coming from NBH you’d be concerned based on their recent efforts.Backwards along with all things related to the bbc news merged channel this year - rubbish.it’s all opaque now including the ticker and flipper, it’s look pants but that’s in tone with everything released this year from NBH.this is ridiculous now everyone is going to think bbc news is in permanent breaking news mode, who’s coming up with these wacky ideas, it makes no sense whatsoeverNBH are letting them down big time, I saw that new red breaking news graphic it’s far too bright red now.there’s no programme name mentioned at all, it’s just terrible this bbc news channel it truly sucks.classy and bbc news coming out of NBH dosent work togetherFfs the programme strap the context is on a light red strap on top of the darker red strap you couldn’t make it up, they are having a laugh clearly.That bright red is really bad they are taking the Mickey.the bottom bbc news logo is misaligned a few pixels to the right, this reminds me of bbc news 24 back in 2001 when they experimented with a bright red strap only now of course it affects world and Uk viewers.World News America with the dreadful red lower thirdsI just can’t believe what the bbc have done to their once great bbc news channels.these opaque graphics are here to stay now for world viewersI’ve got decent eyesight and it hurts my eyes it’s too strongAwful colour scheme, it’s ridiculous, viewers will just turn over to other news outlets.And not forgetting my absolute favourite...The Salford graphics system hasn’t been updated thankfully with the horrible updates from NBHSure - the BBC are trying to damage TV screens so they can make people switch to the app...I have a few theories, first one it’s based on the wipe effect making it red and opaque, second theory maybe someone tested it on mobile and didn’t think it was obvious enough, so they made it opaque as possible? and last theory is their digital app approach isn’t working, so they would what would damage peoples tv screens, yeah let’s make it as red And opaque as possible, forcing people onto the app, therefore achieving their goals and then having a valid case for closing the channel for good.
America Sux. Enough said.Martin Phillp wrote: ↑Sun 12 Nov, 2023 02.08 Mouseboy once again getting very snappy at British members who dare to make any comparisons with America.
I enjoyed the suggestion they should just accept the new terms so things are resolved. Come on ladies, know your place and stop being stubborn, you’re messing up the rota!
A Pres Café poster here reacting to seeing a baby Gruffalo on their screen.Sadly, the corporate takeover of the UK’s creative sector is complete. It’s the same in radio. Everything is so bland and formatted these days. A previous poster said ‘nobody will notice or care’. That’s the problem. Perhaps they won’t but if you don’t try to create a magical escape on tv for your audience, don’t expect any customer loyalty. It’s the same in retail - those who try survive these days. Those who say ‘just cut corners, nobody will notice’ soon wither away.
Now onto the fourth page of analysis of what would have been literally just 0.001% of the channel's output yesterday. Also willing to bet that none of the people whinging about it saw it live.Martin Phillp wrote: ↑Thu 07 Dec, 2023 14.31 Maryam's blooper has sent the usual suspects into overdrive.
