BLUE PETER REVAMP:

The Aim:

To create a new title sequence and graphics package for Blue Peter that would celebrate and re-assert the fact that Blue Peter remains at the forefront of children’s television.

The Solution:

BBC Broadcast created a design package that celebrates the relationship that Blue Peter’s audience - always proactive and keen to contribute - has with the programme. This unique bond is portrayed in the title sequence when children and presenters join together to hoist the ship’s sails and literally ‘launch’ each show.

With the programme’s iconic heritage in mind, the traditional Blue Peter ship was kept and the graphic sail shapes are mirrored and brought to life throughout the whole title sequence and graphics package.

The Results:

The new design was launched in September 2004. Results are yet to be confirmed.

How can I win a Blue Peter badge? Blue Peter badges are awarded to children under 16 years old. There are five badges - Blue, Silver, Green, Gold and the Competition badge.

	Blue badges are awarded for interesting letters, good ideas for the programme, stories, poems, pictures and for having appeared on the programme.

	To win a Silver badge you have to do something different from what you did to win your Blue badge. For instance, if you won a Blue badge for an interesting letter; you could win a Silver one by sending us a picture or poem.

	Green badges are awarded for letters and pictures with a conservation and environmental theme.

	Gold badges are only awarded for really outstanding achievements - for instance, saving somebody's life or extreme bravery.

	Competition badges are for winners of Blue Peter competitions.

All you need to do now is Get in touch and we’ll be in contact if you’ve won a badge! Please note: we only award badges for e–mails if they are read out on the programme, or if they contain a really good idea or suggestion for the programme; badges are not awarded for taking part in Blue Peter Appeals.
