Project 666

Brief:

There is a new free-view channel being launched called 666. This channel will be devoted to horror films, thrillers, and dark animated shorts as well as documentaries and chat shows about ghosts and paranormal activity. The broadcasting company responsible for this new platform wish to commission you to make a 3D computer animated Ident with which to promote and identify their channel.
The broadcasting company’s committee has drawn up a series of guidelines to illustrate what they have in mind:

1. Our programme schedule will mainly consist of high value horror and, or, thriller films most of which have a refined, and sometimes highly stylistic aesthetic which we are keen to see reflected in the visual quality of the animation.
2. Although our channel will only air after the 9pm watershed, we aim to use the Idents as a promotional tool on a variety of other channels during prime viewing time: the content of the Ident should be designed appropriately.
3. We are very keen that you include environments and audio that appear to be heavy in atmosphere and tension; however, we do also want the animation to be character based so that the viewers develop a relationship with the Idents.
4. To reflect the range of content on this platform we would be especially interested to see 3D animations that integrate live-action footage in some way.
5. The animations must be 30 seconds long (+/- 10%), not including credits, and be submitted as follows:
• Codec: H.264/ 16 Little Indian
• Resolution: 72 dpi
• Frame Size: 1024x576px (Square pixels [1.0])
• Frames Rate: 25 fps
• Deinterlace: (Lower Field Dominance)
• Audio: 320 kbps / 44.100 kHz
• File Format: MP4
6. Heightened expectancy, moodiness, anxiety, cliffhangers, and terror, are devices heavily used in the kind of material we are concerned with.

This, we hope should provide you with an inspiring starting point.
