Mrtraveler01 738 Posted September 8, 2012 Posted September 8, 2012 Just looked at the WISH-TV website from Indianapolis and I noticed they got a new graphics package. Looks pretty slick. Examples can be found here: http://www.wishtv.com/subindex/video
rah6448 21 Posted September 8, 2012 Posted September 8, 2012 Seems that plenty of the design echoes the features of the recently built KABC (and now KGO) GFX package. Could these graphics probably be from the same design firm?
Daybreak 289 Posted September 8, 2012 Posted September 8, 2012 These graphics look very good. What a nice clean upgrade.
TennTV1983 807 Posted September 8, 2012 Posted September 8, 2012 Looks like they got new music too: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UJ5B7yCIjjQ
AaronQ 282 Posted September 8, 2012 Posted September 8, 2012 Looks like they got new music too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UJ5B7yCIjjQ I am pretty surprised they modified the lighting in their studio
qunewsguy 378 Posted September 8, 2012 Posted September 8, 2012 To me these graphics almost look like they were done in-house. The black "web 2.0" gradient texture on boxes is from a free Photoshop styles kit easily searched online. The CBS/8 logo looks like they just used the new Grayscalegorilla "Transform" plugin. Outside that, the proportions on a lot of the stuff are also a bit out of whack (logo vs/ time/temp, overly-large second line of text), and I'm not sure what's going on with the lower third animation. Once they're done sliding into place they either pop up or down a couple fields randomly.
A3N 1002 Posted September 8, 2012 Posted September 8, 2012 Some of the cheesy animations remind me of VDO's work for some reason. I may be going out on a limb, but this package borrows a lot of ideas from WBZ's previous graphics package, if not only for the condensed L3's but the quick open/rejoin. Its not a bad package, but considering that WISH has done better in terms of new graphics, this new pack is a little underwhelming. The music though, very interesting and not too bad. I wish there was a longer cut, but could it be 615 Music?
who?cares 255 Posted September 8, 2012 Posted September 8, 2012 The new music is nice, however I wish I could hear a longer sample. Overall I like the new package, and most of the set updates.
MidwestTV 1247 Posted September 8, 2012 Posted September 8, 2012 Lmao did anyone else notice how similar these Jim Shella and John Gregg men look?

tw-804 194 Posted September 10, 2012 Posted September 10, 2012 24 Hour News....what is this, 1991? Along with WISH, WOOD in Grand Rapids, KCRG in Cedar Rapids and KFDX in Wichita Falls still use the "24 Hour News Source/Service" branding. Anyway, I like the graphics. They look very good.
IndyNewsGuy 14 Posted September 10, 2012 Posted September 10, 2012 Channel 8 Morning/Noon Meteorologist Randy Ollis posted this photo on his Facebook Today... "Uh oh! Work is being done on our set in the studio. Hope it is ready for the 5pm newscast. At least the green screen is still standing"
A3N 1002 Posted September 11, 2012 Posted September 11, 2012 SouthernMedia is listing the new music package as "A New WISH" by 615 Music.
