Armageddon Week
Project Info
Disney Channel asked Beautiful to create a branding package to promote Disney Movies on Disney Channel.
Disney wanted a package that would brand movies as an event on the channel, and create an emotional connection with the audience around both their new blockbusters and the classic Disney catalogue.
We pitched an epic magical journey that, like Disney movies, would take the audience to different worlds.
Featured here is the main ident that plays out before the movie.
The music was composed by Rich Evans and Nik Haley at Sync Box.

- Turner asked us to produce a bedtime branding block for their pre-school Cartoonito channel using their brand characters. We conceived a set of idents based on the Cartoonitos' dreams, each dream reflecting the character's personality and aspirations. Following the success of the channel branding work we were asked to create a set of follow up idents for Fairy Non-Bio's sponsorship of the bedtime block. For these we created a variety of scenarios where Bizzie (the iconic Fairy baby) interacted with the Cartoonito characters in a series of fun playful environments.

- MTV Young and Married
- youngandmarried
- Young & Married is a brand new series on MTV based on young couples who have fallen in love and chosen to spend their life together. Mentorn Media commissioned this graphics package following a competitive pitch. Taking inspiration from the words of Ronan Keating - "love is a roller coster, you've just got to ride it" - we organised a photo shoot of a suitably MTV looking couple and used the stills to place them on 3D roller coaster representing the ups and downs of married life.

- With an expected global audience of 4.8 billion viewers, the graphics package Beautiful created for the London 2012 Olympics will be by far our largest broadcast project to date.
Working with Lambie Nairn and the Olympics Broadcast Services (OBS) we produced a massive 289 animations across the 26 Olympic sports including apparatus run throughs, medal depictions and historical timelines. We modelled every single piece of equipment from footballs to rowing boats and made every field of play from swimming pools to equestrian horse jumping.

- Working with Dixon Baxi, we helped rebrand Watch – UKTV's flagship entertainment channel. The new brand positioning focused on exploring the extraordinary, to deliver a more exciting and dramatic experience for viewers. With this theme as our inspiration, we created a full set of OSP elements including bumpers, menus and a new promo toolkit.

- We rebranded Fox's FX channel, home of the hit shows True Blood, Dexter and Family Guy, using their distinctive 'tab' logo to create a unified look and feel across all on-screen branding and presentation elements. As well as a set of dynamic idents, combining CG animation with live action backdrops, we developed a full on-screen presentation package that brought the logo to life in rich, glossy 3D.

We created the channel’s on-screen identity, and continue to work with them on promotional campaigns for their huge catalogue of hits like Friends, Two and a Half Men and Big Bang Theory. Working across territories, languages and formats, we manage every aspect of the production process – from initial concepts, script-writing and storyboarding to final production, audio, voiceovers and delivery.

- Disney Christmas Campaign
- disney-xmas
- We’ve worked with the team at Disney for many years, and were thrilled to be chosen for their 2011 Christmas campaign. To show how Disney Channel makes Christmas even more special, we developed the concept of a magical train journey home for Christmas.
The work began with creating a logo, style guide and key art that could be used across TV, print and online. Then we storyboarded, cast and shot the promo, combining live action with 3D animation and rotoscoped footage. The film told the story of an enchanting train journey through the snow, with children, Disney characters and the train itself working together to build and decorate a spectacular Christmas tree. - Disney_XMas_main.jpg

- Ben 10 vs Generator Rex
- ben-10-vs-generator-rex
- Cartoon Network asked us to produce a commercial that brought together two of their biggest shows: Ben 10 and Generator Rex. Combining live action with character animation, the commercial featured two billboard posters showing the stars of each show, which then came to life and competed over who was the best superhero. We shot the back plates and then animated the characters by hand in Flash, before adding extra post effects in the final composite to unite the characters seamlessly with the real world.

- CI Crime & Punishment
- We have a long-standing partnership with the Crime and Investigation Network (CI), a UK channel offering factual programming around crime, investigation and mystery.
This promo was for Crime and Punishment, a show that follows the stories of crimes from first detection to the arrest, trial, judgment and sentence. We took the image of falling dominoes to symbolise the way one crime sets off a sequence of events. Built in dynamic 3D, with a strong palette of red and white, the animation not only dramatises the idea of the show, but also powerfully reinforces the CI branding.
Our work with CI has received fantastic recognition with this promo awarded bronze for 'Best Design' at the 2010 Promax UK Awards and CI winning silver for ‘Channel Brand Of The Year’ at the 2011 Promax Europe Awards.

- Disney Lucky Saturdays

- Our long-term clients at Disney Channel asked us to create idents and a promo for Lucky Saturdays, a ‘Watch and Win’ competition spot on Saturday mornings. The brief was to create a futuristic ‘land of plenty’ which kids could explore and interact with, to win prizes. We designed the logo and developed a set of moodboards and style frames, then storyboarded, cast and shot the promo. The kids were filmed in a green-screen studio, before being composited into a colourful 3D graphic environment where they interacted with different shapes to discover and win prizes.

- One of the world’s best-loved entertainment brands, MTV was our first client, and we’re proud to be working with them still. Over the years, we’ve worked on everything from channel rebrands to title sequences and individual promo campaigns. Whatever the solution, it’s grounded in the distinctive MTV combination of cutting-edge design and youthful, leftfield irreverence. We produced this promo for their ‘Nation’s Favourite Reality Popstars’ countdown, which was directed by Louise Cousins with Beautiful managing managing all aspects of the shoot and post production. The promo was awarded sliver at the 2010 World Promax Awards.
