The Ever-Evolving Gray Graphics Situation...Thread
TheSpeedKing replied to NEOMatrix's topic in Graphics
New graphics as well? 2019-2020 look refreshed for VizRT? Either way, this is shaping up to be a great rebrand. -
The Ever-Evolving Gray Graphics Situation...Thread

The WAVE logo is usually applied to flat elements only-don't be concerned about that. Also, have you seen their previous graphics? (Videos are in this thread) -
I'm not concerned about WNCN moving Y&R to the recommended time slot, but I'm more concerned about what they are replacing it in that timeslot.

The Ever-Evolving Gray Graphics Situation...Thread
TheSpeedKing replied to NEOMatrix's topic in Graphics
Finally! This is what I’ve been hoping for all these years. Modernity has been something WAVE pushed really hard as of late. So a “fresh” logo design was in order. -
Why? Just why?
-
Yikes. One more reason to recommend that station broadcasting on Channel 17, WNCN's namesake. You know the callsign.
-
Nexstar couldn't be that shortsighted. This is not Lexington, KY where you have a low-quality competitor (cough, WTVQ). In the Triangle, your competitors are some of the best stations in the entire country. There will be no way WNCN can poach viewers away unless Nexstar does something different, and launching another newscast is not the solution.
-
Quick reminder: The CBS affiliate in Lima is WOHL-CD, owned by the owners of WDRB (Block Communications).

The Rock is garbage IMO. I would've preferred NBC to sell back the O&O package to SAM for syndication rather than keeping The Rock. CBS Local *might* have been another option if they wanted to pull a WVIT and use the Enforcer logo. -

Like WOIO's? Graphics implemented during Gray ownership are considered Gray graphics in my books. Howell probably does not care where those graphics came from. So, they're going out-of-house. -
The Ever-Evolving Gray Graphics Situation...Thread
TheSpeedKing replied to NEOMatrix's topic in Graphics
We don't know what's happening with Gray graphics at this point. The Meredith hub's fate is unknown, so before any of the ex-Quincy stations get new graphics, Gray must decide whether to shift these stations to the Meredith hub or to shut the Meredith hub down and go out-of-house (a la Page 1 of this thread). -
KNSD has the new bug as of today.
-
I mean...the CSD's work here is very childish, like a lot of Nexstar stations' in-house work. New watchers (important for the marketers) will not be captivated if your graphics are garbage. Nexstar, please hire CSDs that know today's design languages.
-
I'm still not convinced that WDKY had a reason (besides network affiliation) to not use the KOIN package. As for the logo, it's basically a coloured version of the generic Tegna Fox affiliate logos.
-
As for WDKY, the rebrand took place as scheduled. New Nexstar website as well. IMO, the new logo reminds me of KGO-TV. I'm not aware of any airchecks yet, so I don't know if the ticker was removed (Good for them if they did!).
-
At least they tried to do something different, but please no sensationalism, gossip, rumours or bias.
-
Look N is not being syndicated. It's decommisioned.
-
I was suggesting this as it could be presented as a high-quality E/I programme to rival the garbage that is Today 3rd Hour on WXIA, and a nice change of pace from yet another newscast.
-
WNBC and WRC-TV do not have it yet. As a matter of fact, WRC-TV still has Look N monitors from their at-home "studios".
-
That's good news for sure, but I was expecting a locally produced entertainment programme to fill this slot.
-
Might I suggest WDAY? Though their website is garbage, and they haven't exactly landed on the best network affiliation (it's ABC but you could do a lot worse), their on-air product seems fine, and being locally owned might help.
-
That's not on Gray or CBS, but rather the station's fault for still having that promo in their systems when they were supposed to delete it long ago. KVLY is an NBC affiliate. Perhaps you were talking about KXJB-LD?
-
And I may have spoke too soon. AVSForum users report that the WUAB simulcast on WTCL is indeed in 480i. So 2 HD's and 2 SD's, not the limit. Sorry about that.

ABC changing their logo; New graphics coming for ABC owned stations
TheSpeedKing replied to Briella's topic in Graphics
Run that in °C, and now you can have the same hourly temperatures for 10 months! Anyways, to keep this thread on topic, Gray Television's WTVG (a former O&O no less) has switched, but only the bug has the new logo. The opens have not been modified yet unlike KOTA (who also has the new logo). -
A necessary bump to this thread: People on AVSForum are reporting that both 5.1 and 11.1 on KTLA's signal now looks terrible, to the extent that one viewer complained on Twitter. In addition, 5.1 has been downgraded to 720p. If you're in the LA market and watch Fox/The CW over-the-air, upgrade now.
