This set of opening title sequences for the BBCs regional news bulletins was unveiled in 2008 as part of the Corporations attempt to create a unified brand for BBC News across all platforms (television , radio and new media).
Designed by branding expert Martin Lambie-Nairn, the red and white graphics are based upon a generic template created for the English regions. However, the final sequence for each area is unique in that it features footage shot locally, of people at work and play, together with images of local industry, transport, landscapes and landmarks.
The 15 BBC1 English regions are presented in the following order:
North East & Cumbria (Look North)
Yorkshire (Look North)
Yorkshire & Lincolnshire (Look North)
North West (North West Tonight)
West Midlands (Midlands Today)
East Midlands (East Midlands Today)
East East (Look East)
East West (Look East)
South East (South East Today)
South (South Today)
Oxford (Oxford)
West (Points West)
South West (Spotlight)
Channel Islands (Channel Islands News)
London (London)
When viewed in their entirety, they provide a somewhat sylised snapshot of life in 21st century England .
The accompanying music was composed by David Lowe as part of a new BBC News package released in 2008, which includes separate opening and closing themes, headline beds and stings for international, network and regional bulletins (with thanks to Hymagumba at TVF for providing the audio).
