will the eatock eye come back?
 

with these hopeful rumours of a back to basics series do you think they’ll ask the original eye designer daniel eatock to do it again? it would be lovely, although he might tell C5 to **** off after they rejected his BB12 eye in favour of C5’s in-house ****e.

Also hopefully they’ll get rid of SHOP and get Hello Charlie back, although they did do BB12’s and BB13’s titles but I guess the tackiness was through fault of C5, not them

NO. GET OVER IT.

:(

Channel 5's eye template is fine though? I kind of prefer it to the eatock eye, it looks more modern.

it’s ugly and tacky!

IS this what the Eatock eye should've been for BB12? Is it supposed to be a Rorschach or something?
Quite ugly tbh...

Nnn it literally is. It comes up when you search for Rorschach lol.

That's the point.

Next you'll be telling us the BB1 eye looks like it belongs to a human or the BB2 eye is based on a flickering television.

Yes, but then it's not really his own design then, is it? Unless that site I found it on nicked it from.

He didn't design the human eye either but that aint the point. :hugesmile:

It's based on the Rorschach test, it isn't the actual one.

Well it looked like nothing when I was first looking at it...

You don't have to shout

Get that ginger mutt outta MA FACE!!!

this is ugly

i kind of prefer what they did with this cbb, like a real-ishlooking eye

No and honestly the C5 template is fine they just don't know how to use it properly

I don’t think they’ll ask eatock but I think they’ll stick with the eye they’ve got now idk how they could change it tho

sis...

Well you said they rejected his BB12 eye. Is it his or not?

It is his but bitch the BB14 eye had doors in it it doesn’t mean it’s stealing the idea of the inventor of doors is it

That's fine, and not what I was saying. All I was getting at was that whenever you search for Rorschach, that eye is one of the first images to come up and links you to some online test/quiz thing and before I knew it was his actual design, I assumed it was just some random inkblot that just so happened to look like an eye, once I found it on google.

Got IT???? :oh:

Ya bloody thick bitch.

because it would look exactly like the eye template??? you silly mare!

You need to be more clear, I reckon

you need to get some logic!!!

Tbh I’m hoping they keep this new one they’ve started with this series. I bet they could make that look amazing.

No... Just as I said in the other thread about the outdoor set... Whether you like the graphics or not they do little to improve or detract from the quality of the show... I'd rather production focus on fundamentals rather than cosmetics... Whether you want to admit it or not your suggestions so far are insignificant, childish, and trivial...

The aesthetic of the show has a lot to do with the enjoyment and the eye is a nostalgia factor for people who enjoyed it during the C4 era, and because I’m in the industry it interests me as the graphics during a lot of the C5 era have been subpar. I don’t care what Kingston from Canada thinks of my ‘suggestions’ (when it was just a question too lol) I care about what other people who remember and enjoyed the series when it was on c4 feel about it and the rumoured efforts of them bringing it back to standard with the hiring of one of the old producers etc. Don’t like it? Don’t open my damn threads just to be smug and patronising because you add nothing to the conversation.

SHOP are actually the same people who designed the logos at Hello Charlie - they just opened their own brands. I did an interview with them in 2015:

Good to know. That explains the change.

Hello Charlie still exists as an agency though right?

Rubbish - people get nostalgia for the eye because they associated it with a good series. If it was all about the eye BB4 and BB10 would be ranked amongst the best series.

I will give credit to C5 for maintaining the annual update of the look and indeed increasing it, though I think the latter is probably more about distracting from the shows obvious issues. It is also a double edged sword as you often get a decent package which is then dropped for the next series.

Really though money would be better spent elsewhere and the look of the show could remain relatively consitent across 2-3 years. BB Canada is without doubt the best of the franchise lately and though there are changes to the graphics each year to fit in with the house theme the look has actually been pretty much the same since the first series.

Rude and ignorant. Don't start a thread on a forum if you're not prepared for people to disagree.

Eatocks Bb12 eye was ugly I’m glad they rejected it.

Honestly I'd like more CBB7 / CBB21 style eyes. They were two of the very best imo.

I agree... I was unsure of it at first but the BB12 logo was an improvement and a much needed change... That said keeping the cloud motif in subsequent series was just lazy...

Both of these logos were a refreshing change from a design pattern that was becoming a bit dated... I’d be interested to see what they could do if they continued with this style...

CBB21’s eye, just without the eyeliner would be good for 19...

Absolutely not. Why would it?

Because there is a belief that the old way (Channel 4 era) is always the best way and that Channel 5 couldn’t possibly ever do anything better than what they’ve been doing... At least according to the OP of this thread anyways...

Channel 5 are sh*te right down from the smallest things up to the largest, every single thing about it is. That's just facts.

Not true... In the earlier years of the Channel 5 era design was one of the things I believe Channel 5 did much better than their predecessor... That's not to say I believe they were perfect but it was a refreshing and much needed change from something that had become tired and overused...
