AVID:Requests for Comment/Include splash screens on the site
From the Audiovisual Identity Database, the motion graphics museum
Include splash screens on the site
I propose the inclusion of splash screens on the site, for the following reasons:
- Most of the times, they are audiovisual identity, and they share similarities with onscreen logos and commercial tags (inclusion of logo, byline, sometimes animated logos. etc)
- Bootscreens are considered splash screens, in fact they're also known as boot splashes
- We have one page for a splash screen: Shazam (the second entry)
If this proposal passes, of course splash screens should be split off from onscreen logos (like the Shazam one), probably into a new subpage like we currently do with bumpers and tags. We should also only include notable splash screens if possible.
What do you think?
