Hey folks! As you might have noticed already it seems a new brand in terms of the opening & graphics is going to shine through since mid 2019. Lets start this topic way back in Mid 2018. WWTBAM UK relaunches its version to celebrate the 20th Anniversary of the format. Their studio is designed by "Patrick Doherty" (just to name it) More interesting, their new opening titles & studio graphics are made by David Newton & Dan Norman from "Potion Pictures" potionpictures.co.uk/project/who-wants-to-be-a-millionaire-titles/potionpictures.co.uk/project/who-wants-to-be-a-millionaire-2018-studio-screens/Less than 1 Years later, more countries start to follow a revival. Some of them went with the old template "Rave Opening" However... Starting in the Netherlands May 2019 and going to Croatia, Chile & now Denmark they use a new opening template for WWTBAM. I'm talking about the template of "Bankgiro Miljonairs" / the Dutch Styled Opening. This opening is developed/created/designed by "Olga van den Brandt". olgavdbrandt.nl/who-wants-to-be-a-millionaireSince the first presentation of that opening in Netherlands Mid 2019 this seems to be the new standard. What do these formats have in common? - Opening
> Template by Olga van den Brandt > Logo is build up in the set the same way A) Netherlands "Bankgiro Miljonairs" B) Croatia "tko zeli biti milijunas " (Full episode linked) C) Chile "Quien Quiere Ser Milionario" (Full episode linked) D) Denmark "Hvem vil vaere Millionaer" - Graphics> The Question Template is the same as the british "20th Anniversary" styled on > The Lifeline Graphics follow the "20th Anniversary" style > The Moneytree backgrounds: Same as Netherlands (NEW) - Rules> The Phone A Friend gets reduced to 25 seconds instead of 30 seconds So this could be the new standard for revivals of WWTBAM? Maybe Sony lets them decide what they can use. Rave styled OR the "new brand design". What do you think about this? Do you like the new (Dutch) Design of "Olga van den Brandt"?

Same here. Also the Danish set looks interesting. I wonder what the next countries to adopt the new graphics will be.

I think if Belgium would return to the classic format they would go for this type of graphics. Also I don’t want to go off topic but I still don’t know where to get all of them.

The Polish and French versions could adopt them. Both still use the old rave graphics.

Undecided about the intro Honestly but the graphics look very clean. I'm still a sucker for blue rave tho. Love how that looks
On a side not with PAF being reduced from 30 to 25 if memory serves me right that was Germany's? old rules

I’d like to see the UK use this intro. Also, I have noticed the different backgrounds.

The UK should use this intro too but the classic music brings the nostalgia if we’re gonna be honest.

how about this intro?:
I'd love to see this intro used, for future versions who want to use the classic graphics again, but in HD/widescreen version (used in the UK from 3 September 1999 to 9 April 2002):

And if a any version were to reuse classic graphics, they would probably add some 3D effects and animations.

And if a any version were to reuse classic graphics, they would probably add some 3D effects and animations. yep, 3d effects should be added, but classic graphics can still be used. for example, back-and-forth running texts for long questions and long possible answers, moving pink bars for Ask the Audience, or probably adding faces of three possible choices of phone-a-friend, in classic money tree background (similar to the U.S. version in 2009).

Plus animated Lifeline icons. Maybe the 2007 US graphics could be the basis? Anyway, we’re talking about a rebrand going on in international versions of Millionaire. The “how to bring back classic graphics” could be for another thread.
