3D News Show Title Sequence

About the project

I need a broadcast-standard 3D animated opening title for an upcoming nightly news show. The sequence must instantly set a serious, authoritative tone while feeling modern and high-energy enough to carry a prime-time slot. The job centres on building a polished 8-12 second animation that integrates the programme logo, headline imagery and subtle motion cues associated with global news coverage. Clean, legible typography and a refined metallic or glass-like finish will help convey credibility. Smooth camera moves, elegant lighting and realistic reflections are essential; think of the pacing and gravitas typical of major network intros. Preferred workflow: Cinema 4D, Blender or Maya for the 3D work, finished in After Effects (or equivalent) for compositing and final colour. Please keep the scene set-up well-organised so future tweaks are straightforward. Deliverables • Final 4K (UHD) master: ProRes 4444 + alpha • Secondary 1080p broadcast version (same specs) • Two lower-third transition variants that match the main title’s look • Full project files, textures, fonts and an asset list Acceptance criteria 1. Visuals immediately read as “news” and feel authoritative. 2. Logo is crystal-clear and on-brand at every frame. 3. No visible aliasing or flicker in motion graphics, even on fast pans. 4. Colour values remain broadcast-safe (ITU-R BT.709). All music and sound-design beds must be either cleared for broadcast or original work; stem files should be supplied separately. Turnaround is two weeks from commission, with a midpoint preview for structural sign-off.
