Re: Annoying prime time effects
by Ryan Mast on Oct 1, 2008 at 2:04:46 am

I caught some flu-ish virus this weekend, so I wasted far more time in front of the TV than usual. Observations...

* Bloom and Dazzle -like transitions on networks with a lot of reality-based programming like HGTV, TLC, BRAVO, etc. Is that coming into style? It just seems like an easy, cheap trick.

* Mythbusters interludes and titles are consistently clever and fun. I want to meet whoever designed them someday and buy them a beer. Most of it looks like practical shots -- no CG.

* The "Fringe Text" look seems like the next development of text tracking in 2D, kind of like the titles for Psych in the first two seasons. It's kind of a cool concept in its simple-looking application on Fringe -- it never breaks the viewers eye out of the point of view of the camera to a 2D lower-third.
