Researching into the brief question

The brief task I will be completing is:

"A selection of materials related to an original TV drama, to include the title sequence to the TV programme, together with two of the following three options:

• The front cover of a magazine for the series;
• A DVD cover for the series;
• A radio advertisement for the magazine."

We had to complete the main task and choose two of the Anicillary tasks; the two I have chosen were to create the front cover to a magazine for the series and a DVD cover for the series.
To start off, I researched and watched various children's TV programme's opening sequences, looking into and analyzing how they are made and if I could create something similar.

These are just a few examples of the opening that I'd look at and liked; they vary from real life people mixed in with animations to full-on cartoon openings. I looked at these to get an idea of the different openings of kids shows, from the 1990's to the 2000's and how different things can be created to make an effective and exciting show opening.

Other things I looked at aswell as the TV show openings were the E4 indents, which are the small adverts shown before television shows on the channel showing some small animation leading up to seeing the logo; some are made up of big animations and some are just as simple as lots of photographs merged into one to create a small video.
