Rather than using fixed rigid panels for our on screen graphics, we have adopted a more flexible approach.
A constantly moving purple background panel moves into place behind text as required to ensure legibility of the text overlaying the video. So if the video is dark, less purple is needed.
It’s ever changing angles and movement allow for a strong background colour, while still providing playful and dynamic graphics.
This animated panel is based on our typical straight box panels used elsewhere in our branding. We've added subtle movement to add more interest and playfulness to the on screen graphics, rather than a static square blocking off most of the video.
Text can appear on either side, top or bottom, to match a suitable position on video footage.
All titles are white, with one key phrase or word highlighted in yellow on the page.
