A very unexpected email arrived in the inbox earlier this year. BBC Creative and Superunion were working on a set of new idents to refresh the BBC Two channel’s identity for the first time in 20 years. Collaborating with some of the best studios and talented motion designers on the planet. Somehow, they wanted me to design and animate two of the idents.
Each of the 16 idents is a visual signifier that will complement the type of programmes on the channel and links the eclectic channel schedule together with seamless transitions between programmes.
The music video for Persian Empire’s empire tracks 'She Got Confused' and 'He Wouldn’t Sleep' is an attempt to visualise the confusion and chaos of a breakup. The film is a road trip through the beautiful memories of a relationship building, to the slow decent into the feelings of isolation, frustration, confusion, sadness and everything in between after the breakup.
