Sneak preview of new Match of the Day titles

Post categories: ,Ìý

Jim Irving | 13:40 UK time, Friday, 10 August 2007

As I promised last week we can bring you some .

Our researcher Zak Oomer, did a fantastic job of getting players and managers all around the country to take part.

In the video linked above, you’ll see the likes of Aaron Lennon, Bobby Zamora, Kevin Doyle and others in a studio surrounded by green walls.

The reason for all the green is so we can cut the players out using a sophisticated computer programme and place them in a three-dimensional world that we’ve created for the new titles.

When we were shooting Robert Green of West Ham we had to use a different colour screen for cutting his footage as his goalkeeping kit was green!

Producer Jason Bernard and design director Victor Martinez have done a fantastic job in creating a set of titles that work beautifully with the new set and all our other new graphics.

Another change from last season is that Match of the Day 2 now has its own unique set of titles, so there are even more players and managers to look out for on a Sunday night.

All the new elements should be the perfect start to the new season.

I hope you enjoy the footage - make sure you watch Match of the Day on Saturday to see the final result! (2215 on ±«Óãtv ONE and this website).
