Bubbles

The bubbles ident was filmed by pointing a camera down one of YSTV's bubble tubes and superimposing the YSTV logo over the top.

It was first used as a holding graphic at Woodstock 2002 and became an ident when the Video Server was launched just over a year later.

Due to the length of sequence required for Woodstock and the available computing power the sequence was created in real time. This was achieved using two cameras, a Mac, genlocking and keying. A single rotation of the logo in black and white was rendered on the Mac and then continuously looped as a keying signal. The two cameras were genlocked to this and then one was keyed by the Mac output before being mixed with the second camera.
