I recently found someone who worked at Broadcast Arts that shared me a sample of the work they did back then for MTV and other clients, it just impressed the hell out of me to see some of what I remember seeing or haven't seen before.<br /><br />Several I enjoyed were the one with the Sandiwich and the meteorite thingy crashing into an unsuspecting home. Those were pretty impressive for what attention had been given to them.<br /><br />Incidentally some of the separate MTV ID's that are getting stuck on GoogleVideo and YouTube originated from the efforts of a few out there had in collecting every single ID from old recordings made during those glory years.<br /><br />I only wish MTV nowadays was like this again. They'll never go back to those days. I remember being glued to the boob toob constantly as a 5 year old just to see those things show up when the channel was added to my service around '83 or so.
