Rationale for this channel
I feel that the channel licence should be approved because Australian Content is mostly an overlooked part of Television in the world, though some shows are very popular in the UK, and it would be a good opportunity to showcase some of this talent.

The idea and schedule is very well done, however I would appreciate some nicer graphics if possible - even if it is just antialising the logo.

The logo is bothering me a little, but the shots are pleasant enough.

Just sort that out, and you'll be onto a winner methinks. The idea is decent though.

Here is the updated graphics. I tried to tone the background of the logo down, as well as changing the colour. I also redisigned the Up Next Slide a bit, mainly font and colour-wise. I am hoping that this is a better look.

The graphical style is alright - but have you considered experimenting with other colours? The "mixed bag" approach doesn't work for some of them.
Otherwise acceptable graphics.

What is your percieved viewer for this channel, and also how would it benefit audiences over existing services?

The channel really isn't meant to benefit over other services, as this proposed channel is meant as a look at another country, more specifically it's programmes. Summing up decades of shows onto one channel for anyone to watch. It's percieved viewer is more or less summed up in my above answer. It's basicially whoever wants to look at different programming from another country.

LevCorp wishes to withdraw this submission. We apologise for any inconvenience caused.

No problem, however I do like the idea so I think if someone else intends opening up a new digital channel, here is a suggestion!
