Purpose- Branding

It is exactly like branding of products such a clothing etc. Where the logo such as the chosen style or audio identifies the audience of the TV channel they are watching. 

A company’s overall ethos and aims can be reflected on its idents. When channels confirm on their idents they would also have to comprehend what and how the idents will pitch itself to the intended audience. Obtaining a brand permits the channel’s target audience to be able to associate with the programmes.





Sky Sports News and Channel 4 are both popular channels. Sky Sports have utilized this specific ident to either inform the audience that a programme is about to start or to show what the up-coming programmes are. They are an entertainment channel, and the background shows the 2 football teams shaken each other hands before the game. The image moreover contains Manchester City’s well known center back player- Vincent Kompany who at the time was a premier league winner and classed as one of the best defenders.  Channel 4 is typically known for broadcasting the most famous and popular show ‘The Simpsons’, before the show stats they put an iconic abstract channel 4 logo that is yellow in colour and has eyes and is edited to make it look like The Simpsons characters. Doing this is very effective since it lets the audience know what would be playing next and they can identify their target audience who watch specific shows. 
Almost every TV channel that is accessible to date has their own particular branding technique with the utilization of an Ident, for instance the music Channel of Scuzz which plays essentially Rock and Metal music have idents that are about constantly recognised by the sound in which is typically a 5 second set off guitar riffs with drumming playing in the background, however, these little sound examples which are played with the visuals are frequently substantial metal riffs with drumming which makes it considerably more novel to Scuzz. Other rock music channels, for example, Kerrang tend to play significantly softer samples of rock music inside their idents as metal music is not one of their most grounded regions but rather a broad rock, punk and indie genre are.
