My Big Brother eye / Advertising Campaign / Graphics

[Matt]

Lol thanks Andy :D

[Matt]

Why not split the pic then?

[eyeonu]

That's what I've done but Whenever i put the flash between the two splits it has a block around it, could you post a stripe in a format where it's on its own as a single element?

[Matt]

Ok in a sec

[eyeonu]

don't worry about it. I've done it now!:thumbs:

[Riz]

do u have msn u can send it to me adn il uplaod it for ya

[Riz]

[eyeonu]

[Riz]

huh fags??

[eyeonu]

Here's the teaser I tried to make to go with your eye! Failed to make it swivel but I think the rest is fine but don't get your hopes up, you'll probably think it's crap!
Looking at it, it could all move abit slower!

[Sam]

Wow thats really good :laugh:

[Scarlett.]

I think it's the day count for it..

Anyways keep up the good work everyone and i love all your ads imatt!

[Matt]

Yes it is meant to be the eye count, thanks to everyone, glad you like the eyes :)

I'll make my own ads today at some point :D

[Sam]

Cant wait for that advert

[eyeonu]

Thanks, I tried but I'll have another go!

[Matt]

I've been a bit pre-occupied this afternoon so I haven't been able to make adverts yet :(

[Matt]

I've decided I'm gonna make them frame-by-frame and then put them into my GIF animator - it might take ages but it will be worth it :D

[andybigbro]

Ok i am sure it will be great

[Chri$]

Plz can u attatch trhat but a non transparent version Please? :rolleyes:

[Matt]

I'll start on them tomorrow :cheer2:

[Matt]

Right, unfortunately I am finding it very difficult to animate the eye in the way I wanted, so I have worked out another design which will be much easier to animate, and I should post my first animation tomorrow.

[Cody™]

whats with the pig brother? lol

[Matt]

Ah. Pig Brother. Click on the sig :P

[Riz]

lol u even put the pig in the middle rofl! :D x

[andybigbro]

Pig Brother LMAO

[Matt]

Lmfao I can't believe wot that thread came to

Anyway I come bearing good news!

My first (admittedly cr*p) advert is nearly done, and it may be on YouTube tonight!

[Matt]

Success! My first video is now uploading to YouTube!

[andybigbro]

OOOh cannot wait iMatt

[Matt]

I do apologise, but my internet connection cut halfway through uploading for a few minutes and I'll need to upload it again :( maybe by half 1 :D

[Riz]

ooooooooooo take ur time jessh lol jksssssss x

[Matt]

My video is currently being processed and it should definitely be on by half past 1, depending on YouTube :)

UPDATE: It's taking a long time :(

[Riz]

okok lol jks :D x

[Matt]

Yesss! Done! And two minutes on schedule!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LfDr80AWlIg

(I know it's rubbish, but I did it anyway :laugh2:)

[Riz]

[Matt]

Really?

[dupin]

That's pretty cool!

[telefan]

Really gud job i like it...
its like tv interference on a stormy night.
Well Done:thumbs:

[Matt]

I'm glad you like it xD!

[Sam]

Yeah, its great

[Matt]

OK, I'm now working on a house advert which, here's hoping, should be up over the weekend :)

[dupin]

You should try the things that scroll under the bottom of the screen with the numbers to evict people. That'd be cool.

[Matt]

Do you mean this? I posted this a while ago...

http://www.bbspy.co.uk/images/tibbgraphics

[dupin]

Oh, I didnt see it before. That's so cool.

[Matt]

:D Thank you :)

[DropsOfRainbow]

[Chri$]

Thats a Funky Vid! :cheer:

[Matt]

Glad you like it :D

[Corkie]

Well done again....

keep up the amazing work you've been producing.

[Matt]

Thank you :). I'm currently working on a 19-second house teaser ad (in the middle of refurbishments to my site).

[Matt]

Not been working on it much tonight, I'll sort it out tomorrow :)

[andybigbro]

A little update for you - my second advert is going well, if not as planned, and I will be working on my version of the C4 site within the next day or so.

[Sam]

Good luck in the competition :thumbs:

[Matt]

Thank you :D

[Matt]

I have good news!

The house ad is now finished and uploading to YouTube, and I have since changed it to make it less weird!

Result posted here by 3.30 (hopefully)!

Cool video.

UPDATE: The video is now 85% uploaded so it should now be on by 4pm.

[Matt]

OK Here's the advert.

I couldn't do the thing at the end of Channel 4 adverts where the 4 animates in (I didn't know how I could) and it is very poor quality - a higher quality one will be posted here soon.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t4gFI4aiORI

[Sam!]

Its really good i just think the pictures of the house ruins it but still wicked!

[Matt]

Originally posted by FunkySamChicken99

How do you mean?

[Sam!]

The way they just pop up it would be better if the animation went over the pictures

[Matt]

OK, what does everyone else think?

[Corkie]

I like it...
But... it's not as good as your over stuff... animation on the house pictures would give it an extra edge to it I think. (But it's not as if I would be able to do that so I’m not in the position do really give you advice)

But I still think it's really really good

7.5/10...

[Matt]

I think I'll squeeze a fourth pic in later, might make it look better

[Riz]

i think that its good, but they pictures are to big, maybe use the eye as a trasnaprent layer so it flickers over the pictures if you get me

[Matt]

OK, thanks for the feedback, I will redo it at some point.

[Riz]

::hello::xyxwave:

[Matt]

Now to do my C4 site :)

[Matt]

OK, here's how the Channel 4 site would look if my eye was chosed... I think:

Channel 4 website:
http://www.bbspy.co.uk/images/tibbgraphics/tibbc4site.gif

[Riz]

^ oh my god shexiiiiiiiiiii :D x

[Matt]

Lol thank you

I thought I could break the mould a little and have the housemates scrolling from bottom to top instead of left to right.

[Riz]

so much better gives it a differnt vibe x

[Matt]

Thanks! What does everyone else think?

[eyeonu]

Love the site. Looks really different!

[Emilee]

Your are amazing! I love the colours.

[Matt]

Thanks Emilee :D

[eyeonu]

Wow, 14 pages and 3153 views. The best fan made logo this year. :thumbs2:

[Matt]

Thanks eyeonu :D I'm glad you all like it

[eyeonu]

What's next??

[Matt]

I don't know hehe I'm sure I'll come up with something

[eyeonu]

[eyeonu]

Great!:colour:

[Corkie]

Loving the site... well done!!

You should try a opening squence type thingy (just a suggestion)

[eyeonu]

Yeah, I think you should too. It would probably be easier and they're always different from the advert graphics.

[Matt]

I'm sorry but I don't have any ideas whatsoever for opening titles.

[Matt]

That would require a bit planning and preparation.

[eyeonu]

Originally posted by iMatt

Not really. There isn't ever really any order to them. They just have a load of flashing images of eyes and house snapshots.

[Matt]

I know, but it's nice to have some kind of order, and I'd need to gather together images to cut into each other.

[eyeonu]

Here's some info on how they went about making the bb5 title sequence (http://www.redbeemedia.com/design/big_brother.shtml)

[Matt]

Hmm... I'm not too sure about that

[eyeonu]

Originally posted by iMatt

What d'u mean?

[Matt]

It didn't really help much... I'm sorry but I might have to give it a miss.

[eyeonu]

OK :bawling:

[Matt]

I know it's a shame but I just can't see it happening.

[eyeonu]

:sad:

[Matt]

If anybody can give me any tips or pointers it would be appreciated.

[Matt]

I have now totally ran out of ideas.

How about a new house? :whistle:

[Matt]

Oh hang on. Already done that a while back.

[JOSHUAH!]

Do you have pics of your house design I only joined a few weeks ago.
Thanks.

[Matt]

You know I've just realised I've deleted them all.

Maybe this paves the way for a new houseplan...

[Matt]

...what do you guys think?

[JOSHUAH!]

Well after all the mocks so far, id love to see a houseplan!!

[Matt]

Would anybody else like me to do another houseplan?

[dupin]

Yeah, sounds cool.

[cooler]

good idea! cant wait to see that one!!!:spin2:

[Matt]

I'll work on that as of the weekend, at the moment I'm racking my brain to think up new eye-related graphics.

[Matt]

I've got it!

I'm currently designing frames from the title sequence (you know, the ones at the end with the title sequence on them!)

[Matt]

ok, I have designed said main title shots, and here they are:

Main show:

BBLB:

So, what do you think?

[telefan]

very, very nice.
Love that real eye in the background, wheres it from??

[Matt]

Google.

Well, I made it up of a pattern I found and a plain eye.

[Matt]

What does everyone else think?

[Captain.Remy]

Georgous !:colour:

[Matt]

Thanks! xD

[ryanaldinho10]

Yep tis great Matt, hey Telefan could you try a similar thing with your eye? :hello:

[Matt]

Even more related graphics:

[Matt]

Ooh-er. They're bad quality. Sorry about that, I'll tweak my settings a bit, but you get the idea.

[Corkie]

Well done there great..

A flattering picture of Davina I must say :spin:

[MarkWaldorf]

Day 127? :shocked: LMAO

They're great!

[Matt]

Hehe I took screenshots out the BB7 launch show :)

Glad you like them

[Matt]

I'll probably stop doing accompanying graphics now.

[eyeonu]

OH!

[Matt]

My floorplan is now in a seperate thread in the fan-made designs forum.

More eye stuff will follow soon, but I'm working on the floorplan a bit.

Glad you like the title shots xD

[eyeonu]

No ttile sequence yet then?

[Matt]

I don't think I'll be able to do a title sequence :bawling:

But if the situation changes I'll get back to you :bouncy:

For those coming over from the BB8 foreign languages debate, here are the advert links:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LfDr80AWlIg
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t4gFI4aiORI

[Matt]

Just to let you know, I have added a lot of the main graphics to the first post of the thread, this may be useful for those of you who are asking me to make stuff which (I think I have) already made :)

[Revol]

If you can do it, how about the sequence when BB cuts off to adverts?

I think you and Telefan have worked extremely hard with this and either yours or his ideas should be chosen for BB8. The BB7 eye was very similar to one Lampy designed, so you never know...

[Matt]

Not too sure if i can do anything like that I'm afraid :bawling:

[Revol]

That's a real shame.:sad:

[Matt]

I know, I don't think I can stretch my skills that far, but as the saying goes...

Big Brother will get back to you :D

[Revol]

Perhaps you could ask Telefan for hints and tips?

[Matt]

Maybe I will :hello:

[Revol]

Excellent. You certainly have potential to make a brilliant title/advert break sequence.

[Matt]

Thanks :bouncy:

[#1BigBrotherFan]

its BETTER then telefan

but i want to see your opening titles will u be making them

[Revol]

How's it going Matt?

[Matt]

I'm working on my house at the moment :)

[eyeonu]

Yeah, this whole campaign is better than telefan's stuff by a mile. Even his stuff put together times a million! Much, much better I strongly agree with you! Absolutely!

That's kind of harsh on telefan-his stuff is pretty amazing too.

[#1BigBrotherFan]

i dident say it wasent i LOVE his eye adn his stage and his house advert

[eyeonu]

Admin deleted... no personal attacks

[eyeonu]

So what's next imatt?

[Matt]

I have really, really bad news.

I lost all my editable files today after a power surge knackered my PC (at least I think that's what happened).

There may be no new stuff for a while.

[Matt]

...in the meantime, i think I'll work on Week 2 of my week-by-week plan.

[Matt]

My new eye for TiBB BB 2 has just been unveiled, to check it out head over to the chat and games forum!

[MarkWaldorf]

:shocked: Noooo. Ach well.

Love the TiBB BB eye!

[Matt]

I am currently working on my next plan...
...set design!

[Kristen]

I am loving this!
You have so many good ideas.
I especially love the 'survival' task :thumbs:

[GhettoSuperstar]

I am loving your sig iMatt! That works really well.

[Matt]

Thanks guys!

Glad you like the sig, I thought it would fit in really well with the mood of the forum at the moment!

[GhettoSuperstar]

Well its superb!! :D

[Matt]

Thanks GhettoSuperstar :spin2:

[Matt]

Here is my first idea for an eviction stage:

http://www.bbspy.co.uk/images/tibbgraphics/evictionset1.jpg

Its basically a pink and blue lit-up neon stage with two seats on top, made of clear perspex with pink cushions. The backdrop is eye reminiscent, with three giant screens, the left and right ones briefly covered with some of the blue and pink 'strips'.

What are your thoughts?

[telefan]

Very nice, some of it does actually look neon which is kinda hard to do.
Perhaps it shud be bigger...

[Matt]

The one part i do think should be bigger is the backdrop.

[Scarlett.]

it looks good, like you said make the back drop a bit bigger

[telefan]

Really gud all-round tho.
What did u make it with??

[Matt]

the backdrop graphic was made in Photoshop, everything else was done in Sketchup.

[Matt]

Here's eviction set mark 2:

http://www.bbspy.co.uk/images/tibbgraphics/evictionset2.jpg

The backdrop has been made a lot larger, and a second, lower down stage has been added for other purposes.

[telefan]

thats really, really gud.
Well Done:thumbs:

[Matt]

Thanks Telefan! :wink:

[mkdfan]

HOLY! unbelieavable, ure very talented.

[Matt]

Thanks mkdfan :thumbs:

[MysterFan07]

OMFGAWD!

That is Lush! :hello:

[bbcanada]

thats amazing, man i wish i could do that, how long did it take you to perfect sketchup?

[MarkWaldorf]

That's an amazing eviction set, well done.

[Matt]

Thanks for the comments!

It took me about a month to perfect SketchUp. I downloaded it, spent 10 mins with it and gave up, and then four weeks later I went back to it and got the hang of it!

And yes, I accept the chairs look like wheelchairs, I just thought they looked quite modern and apt for the set :thumbs:

[Matt]

Admittedly I'm beginning to run out of ideas now...

[andybigbro]

Great Work Matt

[Revol]

BBBM studio?

[Sammeth]

This is...fantastic. Wow. Just wow! Really really good. Lets hope Endemol steal them, cus I wouldnt mind these being used for Big Brother ;D
