mark 55 Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 Found this on Vimeo: http://vimeo.com/31497509 It appears to be a new package created for KNTV, though it could easily be adapted for other stations. In fact, it looks similar to some of the new promo graphics seen on KNBC: http://www.youtube.com/profile?nomobile=1&user=NBC4Creative I like it a lot. It's classy and modern. It's also... blue. It's definitely a departure from the warm colors traditionally seen on most of the NBC O&Os. It uses a similar "clean" look seen on many NBC and MSNBC shows, but it's a huge improvement from what they were trying to standardize earlier this year.

Daybreak 288 Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 Now that's what I am talking about. That is an excellent graphic package. I can't wait until WNBC roll out the new graphics!!!!!!!

24994J 5585 Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 They're gorgeous, but why should I bother...WMAQ will still keep the '05 package! :bang: Updated: After watching the reel a few times, it appears to me that there are hints of Look C, WNBC and the KNSD Debranding incorporated in the package...AND IT WORKS!!! It's simple, fresh, classy and (to me) conveys authority.

susquvalleywgal 517 Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 Very nice package. Only gripe is the what seems to be Times New Roman for some of the gfx ... but guess it would grow on me. Nicely done.

Samantha 2896 Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 Actually, it's not Times. The serif type is very well used and very clean. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/11603-new-nbc-artworks-graphics-package/#findComment-69758 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weeters 1916 Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 Anyone want to venture a guess as to when this new package starts to pop up at the NBC O&O's? Now that I think about it, WNBC is due to move onto a new set in the next month or so. Perhaps they'll debut a version then?

News24/7 3 Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 KNTV has updated their studio desk front with the new pattern, and has been running "high quality" news promos with these graphics for about a month now. I figured that it would just be a matter of time before we saw some sort of relaunch. My avatar shows a cap of the promo animation btw.

sfomspphl 491 Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 For what it's worth, WNBC has been running talent and topical promos that use the new typeface in these graphics.

AndrewPollard_ 6 Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 For my two cents, let me say that these graphics and fonts are WAY better than the ones they have now. If WCAU has these, they WILL be better than KYW's "simple" graphics and WPVI's "legendary?" graphics.

newsteam13 396 Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 These NBC ArtWorks graphics and animations are incredible. I love it! I wish KUSA in Denver would adopt that graphics/animation package. To make it more fun, throw in the dance remix of the NBC Nightly News theme (used by the Seven network in Australia) I would watch KUSA's news if that happened. I hate that corporate graphics/animation/theme music package from KUSA's parent company GANNETT Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/11603-new-nbc-artworks-graphics-package/#findComment-69773 Share on other sites More sharing options...
SFTV 527 Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 im surprised they used KNBC's theme instead of their WNBC 2003 theme that KNTV is using. maybe licensing issues?

jero23 105 Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 I like those graphics for KNTV, and they display the Bay Area landmarks and the skyline of San Francisco quite well. On WNBC, I actually enjoy their existing opening with them showing the New York skyline and landmarks with the "4 (peacock) New York" logo saying the newscast name and time. The same with the interesting opening of WCAU. I think KXAS, WMAQ, and WVIT are in need of a new opening than those aforementioned two.

skbl17 188 Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 Well KUSA is owned by Gannet, so they have to use its graphics. Not only that, but I believe that Gannett's graphics hub is based in Denver, so that makes KUSA much less likely to suddenly drop the standard GFX. Back on topic, the O&O GFX here is amazing and well-implemented. I would be overjoyed if every O&O got this package at some point. :awesome: Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/11603-new-nbc-artworks-graphics-package/#findComment-69780 Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndrewPollard_ 6 Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 About the last graphics package, I liked that and was looking foward to it coming to Philadelphia.

TennTV1983 804 Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 I'm just hoping the new package can be customized color-wise. Blue-and-white would seem awkward at a station like WTVJ.
