Streaming Home Of

Overview

“Streaming Home Of” (SHO) is a wide reaching umbrella campaign that also encompasses on-going genre specific campaigns.

Frame Rates & Aspect Ratio

25fps and 29.97fps toolkits are available. SHO assets use the Essential Graphics panel to make changes to the compositions and should be used in addition to the core brand elements such as Straps and Bugs. All on-air assets are provided in 16:9 (1920×1080).

Genre Intros & Outros

Genre Trains

Confirmed genres by region:

Background Colours

The SHO Toolkit features an extended range of background colours to provide variety across different executions. Colours are not tied to specific genres; local markets can decide if and how to assign the colours. Dark Blue is the primary option.

Ingest Feed & Amazon Outros

The Outro AEP includes options for Ingest Feed and Amazon Feature Rotator Outros.

URL & Legal

An option to include a regional URL is included. Each region sets their own legal terms, and must follow their regional broadcast guidelines for correct scale and duration. For regions that that need to set their T&Cs larger for legal reasons, like the UK example below, we recommend changing the font style to “light” and reducing the horizontal scale:

To do this in on the SHO Outro, Step 1: Essential GFX Panel > Primary = “16×9 Outro” > Legal  > Edit Properties > Enable Custom Font > Style = Light > Size = 63. Step 2: Timeline > Select “Text: Legal” layer > Horizontal scale = 80%

Title Cards with Outro

Duration: 6 seconds including the Outro (inc. 8 frame transition at start where footage base is visable)

Title Cards hold show information & imagery and appear before the Outro. The preference is to use show assets (imagery & title art) that will help a viewer recognise the title on the product. 

Title sequences lifted from the show may also be used as an alternative to the several options provided below.

IMAGE & TITLE ART (PREFERRED)

Image: The preference is to use a clean version of the main Key Art image that is used on the product. However any high-quality image from the season can also be used, similar to the episodic-level images on the product.

Title Art: Use any version (full color, black-mono, white-mono) that provides maximum legibility over the image. Ensure that the proportional scale of title art remains consistent; general scaling guides have been provided for three standard sizes.

Promotion & Collection Lines

Title Cards should only hold essential programme information; title and discovery+ Originals line. As such, it is recommended to include promotion/collection information elsewhere in the promo; in a caption for example. When this is not possible, a promotion/collection line has been built into Title Cards; under the title art. ‘Secondary’ words (i.e. “PART OF THE”) should be set to ⅔ the size of ‘primary’ words (i.e. “ULTIMATE GOLD COLLECTION”)
