NYNewser_676 26 Posted September 28, 2013 Posted September 28, 2013 Because somebody already claimed "@EyewitnessNews"...and TVNT even follows it. https://twitter.com/eyewitnessnews WABC already uses Eyewitness News on Twitter- as their actual name. Their @ is "EyewitnessNYC" ... But they did change their Instagram to "ABC7NY"
ABC 7 Denver 1741 Posted September 29, 2013 Posted September 29, 2013 WABC already uses Eyewitness News on Twitter- as their actual name. Their @ is "EyewitnessNYC" ... But they did change their Instagram to "ABC7NY" Thank you for proving my sanity!
NYNewser_676 26 Posted September 29, 2013 Posted September 29, 2013 Here's something interesting- their Facebook name might be "WABC-TV Channel 7 Eyewitness News" but they recently changed their Facebook web address to "Facebook.com/ABC7NY" ... I think they must be working on a web rebranding ... So far Facebook & Instagram have been rebranded... Twitter might be an issue because if the change their handle, their verification status is automatically removed, and they would have to wait to be reverified.

Guess where that gets you! I read their minds.
BehindNYNews 147 Posted September 30, 2013 Posted September 30, 2013 September is coming to a close and while I thought at least the new opens would debut by now, I would be really surprised if they don't debut them before November sweeps. We will see...
BehindNYNews 147 Posted September 30, 2013 Posted September 30, 2013 A very interesting new top stories graphic and cue just played at the bottom of the 5pm hour. It even had the new logo. Could it be a preview of updated graphics, TBA.

NYNewser_676 26 Posted September 30, 2013 Posted September 30, 2013 Here is the new WABC Top Story graphic, with new ABC7 logo, which aired at 5:30 pm today.
BehindNYNews 147 Posted September 30, 2013 Posted September 30, 2013 If this is what the new graphics are based on, I would be very pleased.
NYNewser_676 26 Posted September 30, 2013 Posted September 30, 2013 If this is what the new graphics are based on, I would be very pleased. It is certainly not part of the current graphics package, so I would say that I am 99% sure this would be the general design of new graphics... hopefully coming soon!
NYNewser_676 26 Posted September 30, 2013 Posted September 30, 2013 The new graphic can also be seen on this video from 7online: http://abclocal.go.com/wabc/video?id=9267919
ABC 7 Denver 1741 Posted September 30, 2013 Posted September 30, 2013 Here is the new WABC Top Story graphic, with new ABC7 logo, which aired at 5:30 pm today. CBS knocks off NBC Look F and WABC knocks off Scripps? Well at least the latter is fitting as the majority of the Scripps stations are ABC affiliates.

Well at least the latter is fitting as the majority of the Scripps stations are ABC affiliates. I don't think that it looks like Scripps at all... I just compared it to WEWS, and it looks completely different.

The new graphic can also be seen on this video from 7online: http://abclocal.go.com/wabc/video?id=9267919 I'll save all y'all some time. They're the same video.
NYNewser_676 26 Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 It looks very Hothaus-ish... They just happened to do the latest KABC design... Possible similarity to the KABC graphics?
AlNYTVRadio 21 Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 Here is the "breaking news" open of WABC from a few minutes ago in HD. . Enjoy!
NYNewser_676 26 Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 A promo for WABC's breast cancer special just aired... with a possible preview of new graphics? It may just be one of their special graphics, like they did for the Mayoral & Comptroller debates, but something to ponder... Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QQ1Vf__SsJU (Don't pay attention to the background noise, unrelated to the promo)
Weeters 1981 Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 The new graphic can also be seen on this video from 7online: http://abclocal.go.com/wabc/video?id=9267919 That's not a very well done graphic. The animation is basic and not smooth at all. I'm thinking it was done in-house. Would be extremely shocked if that was done by a graphics house.
AlNYTVRadio 21 Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 The tease before 4:30 was cut off, and the 4:30 open had a problem to start, and included "4:30 Open" title in blue for a second before it played. A little technical troubles that's all.

Would be extremely shocked if that was done by a graphics house. It's actually similar to the ABC World News graphics- the 3D box package... Looks too intricate to be done in house
BehindNYNews 147 Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 It's actually similar to the ABC World News graphics- the 3D box package... Looks too intricate to be done in house I have to disagree and frankly say I don't think it looks anything like the World News graphics. I think it was just a special done in house. From anything we've seen so far, the new graphics are more likely to be like the new top story cue.
NYNewser_676 26 Posted October 3, 2013 Posted October 3, 2013 Okay...comparing the two, it doesn't look as similar as I previously thought... but the new Top Story graphic was undoubtedly modeled after the 2013 WABC Primary Vote open... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EzXyE2vwegE... It has many similarities, such as the fly in and the color scheme
