What am I selling

This model is a simple version of what is based on a real world mechanical model that was used by the BBC as their main ident or Identification animation used in the late 1970s. An Ident is a quick animation or motion graphic used to identify their channel and this specific version is one of its most well known pre CGI having been used from 1974 to 1981, when it was slightly modified (typeface of BBC1) until a CGI one was used from 1985.

The main difference I have used compared to the real version is the globe is outside of the box container, going with a false perspective look rather than the actual setup which I tried, but failed.

Why did I do this model

Being a fan of the Doctor Who DVDs/Blu Rays, trailers and BBC Idents were a main special feature, and having seen this type of ident all the time, I was inspired to try it and then sell it, so other creatives who have also been inspired by this ident can use it for their own classic BBC inspired projects.

How the file works

Within the downloadable folder/s, I have included two different blender files. One of these files (BBC_Ident_Late_1970s_4_3_Procedural and BBC_Ident_Late_1970s_4_3_Procedural) all the textures/materials are included, using a wide variety of procedural nodes. This will mean you can modify any of these nodes, to suit your own preferred taste/style specific to your own project needs. This Blender file will suit any level of experience as the node layout is quite simple and easy to follow.

However, for those who want the ease and comfort of downloading the file without worrying about making changes, all the textures are baked as .png files. This can be found under the Blender File (BBC_Ident_Late_1970s_16_9_Materials and BBC_Ident_Late_1970s_4_3_Materials). To use, correctly just download the texture ZIP file, (included within are separate material/texture folders with the names closely matching to the different objects within the blender/other file).
