They did not have know what to put right after the current programme ended and right before another starts. The audience also did not know that it was BBC that was the television service.

Defining Audio Visual Promos

Define audio visual promos Audio visual promos is a tool that is used by companies in media. An audio visual is a product that will attract the attention of audiences. The purpose of it is to be released before the launch date of a new product, to make audiences and individuals aware, by informing, educating, entertaining to eventually sell the new product. This is to increase sales, popularity and interest to the new final product. Audio visual promos can be used in many areas such as movies in cinemas, trailers, gameplays, news, radios, online use. Idents are also an example of audio visual promos. Online use is good as it can be shared across different users very fast. Music promos also exist but are considered shorter. They can contain a teaser of the actual product itself which could develop curiosity amongst interest audiences.
