WROC News 8 and Fox Rochester Now In HD

They are using new graphics to compliment the switch to HD. I especially love these, because they are a lot better than what KODE, WBRE/WYOU, and the other Nexstar stations are using. It is making me wonder if they were done in-house or by another company. These are some wonderful graphics that WROC/WUHF are using.

One criticism of their set is that it is that the background is a bit too busy. It lists town names all over it and so when there is a medium shot of each anchor, there is quite a busy background behind them. The graphics seem great though... it's just the set that has mixed reviews. I have yet to find a clip of their open and everything in HD on YouTube (I'm out of the country at the moment). Looking forward to seeing what it looks like once I return.

I don't like that deal they got going on to the left of that weather banner though. It seems sort of too busy and unnecessary.

WTAJ got the same graphics and set. I was thinking is was going to be more like Eyewitness News' in Scranton, but... alas, I'm happy with these. I will say that the set isn't AS busy. There are still town names and blah blah blah, but they got it right with WTAJ. They found the happy medium. My only other problem with the graphics are the unnecessary squares just coming off of everything like the top left of the weather graphics. But overall, this is beyond words for Nexstar. They're getting better.

I failed to mention that WCIA in Springfield, IL got the same graphics and set as well but they went HD last year.
