Brief of a lifetime – new master brand idents for Channel 4.
We were tasked with bringing the 4 back to well, the fore, and giving it meaning and resonance.
Result – 25 uniquely looping idents created by 17 artists and directors that link seamlessly together to become a tapestry of modern Britain and how we live now.
I asked John Jospeh Holt of LAW Magazine to write and voice some words to accompany the visuals.
He became the final artist – the missing piece to a puzzle we were solving whilst building.
All thanks and love to Mike Skrgatic who came up with the looping 4 device. What a genius that man is.
