LONDON - Brothers and Sisters today released the world's first channel idents filmed in zero gravity, for the National Geographic Channel.
National Geographic Channel...zero-gravity idents by Brothers & Sisters
The short films were commissioned to celebrate the channel's upcoming Space Week.
The ad was made by 14 people performing a range of experiments whilst inside a G-Force One airplane.
Each time zero gravity was achieved on the plane, the crew began performing.
One ident shows a collection of pool balls being hit by the cue ball, whilst another shows the crew bursting a balloon filled with water.
Each of the 13 idents also includes the National Geographic's iconic yellow border, which floats weightlessly around the ship.
