Skyrocket:
Skyrocket is a technology-focused primetime slot on Saturday evenings on Sky One. Presenter-led, it features a variety of material plus strong tie-ins to the accompanying Web site and has its own graphical identity that's distinct from regular Sky One programming. Created by Matthew Piper, the live action was shot in the Lords Cricket Ground Media Pod to give a futuristic look. A running gag in the Skyrocket identity is the spoof ad (X-ray specs in this instance) giving a 50s/60s comic book feel. Grading, comping, type and graphics animation courtesy of After Effects.
