After realising how to incorporate the E4 logo properly with the style of the clip I have come up with this finished Darth Vader ident for the show. It works quite well in my opinion, however the only issue here is the colour of the lightsaber. Vader is well known for having a red light saber and in the star wars universe this is a classic sign of a dark (evil) jedi. I have changed the colour of this lightsaber to purple in fitting with the running theme of black white and purple used in each of the idents.
My main worry is that people wont associate the light saber with Darth Vader because of the colour and it could be confusing. On top of that, The character Mace Windu from Star Wars episodes 1, 2 and 3 uses a purple lightsaber and he is a pure good jedi so this could make the imagery even more confusing.
I think that with the correct sound effects the animation will still work in representing Vader and not Windu.
