ABC5EyewitnessNewsCenter 0 Posted September 24, 2013 Posted September 24, 2013 Some screen caps: These look somewhat similar to the new graphics Belo has been rolling out on several of their stations.
Bsean 152 Posted October 10, 2013 Author Posted October 10, 2013 Well, I wonder what's taking do long to roll out rest of the new graphics. They're already using the weather graphics. Everything is so mismatched.
A3N 1002 Posted October 11, 2013 Posted October 11, 2013 Well, I wonder what's taking do long to roll out rest of the new graphics. They're already using the weather graphics. Everything is so mismatched. Hard to say what's going on. A few things come to mind, either: They're waiting for sweeps to debut them, Or need more time to train people on how to use the new graphics, or they're getting them modified.
SFTV 532 Posted October 11, 2013 Posted October 11, 2013 I'm thinking sweeps for KFMB and the debut of KSWB's new set. KPIX still hasn't rolled out up here either.
A3N 1002 Posted October 19, 2013 Posted October 19, 2013 No new graphics tonight. This is one of the weirdest roll out of graphics, i've ever seen. In previous roll outs, KFMB has updated their website the same day the new graphics debut, this time around that did not happen. CBS8,com has been tweaked a bit, with the new logo and some rearranging of the layout.
TexasTVNews 1378 Posted October 19, 2013 Posted October 19, 2013 That 8 logo reminds me of KSBW, WGHP, and the early years of KFMB.
ABC 7 Denver 1729 Posted October 19, 2013 Posted October 19, 2013 That 8 logo reminds me of KSBW, WGHP, and the early years of KFMB. A. The reason why the KSBW and WGHP logos look in 1990 is because their logos were exactly same and were both owned by Storer Communications. B. I hearken the new KFMB logo back to the WTSP 1994-2002 logo. C. A coincidence? I think not! (7-Day from WFAA; From their Facebook)
TexasTVNews 1378 Posted October 19, 2013 Posted October 19, 2013 KFMB has revamped its website today, and here's the statement made on facebook. If you've been on our homepage today, you may have noticed it looks different! Here's a quick guide to some of the changes we've made to the CBS8.com homepage. What do you think of the CBS News 8 website homepage re-design? Let us know in the comments. http://www.cbs8.com/story/23732524/cbs-news-8-website-homepage-re-design
Bsean 152 Posted October 20, 2013 Author Posted October 20, 2013 I hope that means it's time to debut the new on air look tomorrow or Monday.
A3N 1002 Posted October 20, 2013 Posted October 20, 2013 The website was updated on Friday. They also changed their profile pics to the new logo on Facebook and Twitter on Friday as well.So hopefully they'll switch on Sunday.
Bsean 152 Posted October 20, 2013 Author Posted October 20, 2013 To add, during the Chargers game a promo aired for Mondays 5p broadcast using Seize the Day. Wonder if they are going back to that with the introduction of the new graphics. If the music is changing, I wish they would stop rotating between Connection and Seize the Day. If they were gonna go back to an old theme, they should go back to Right Here, Right Now.
A3N 1002 Posted October 24, 2013 Posted October 24, 2013 New programming slate showed up today, featuring the new logo...
A3N 1002 Posted October 24, 2013 Posted October 24, 2013 Here is a promo for the 5pm news with the new graphics, and music. All promos now have the new logo. In regards to the music, a few cuts have been used on the morning news for several months now but those cuts sound terrible. This cut used in the promo sounds more polished. I don't know, but the new music sounds very similar to Connection. An update, perhaps? [YT]81QOISIAf6E[/YT]
SFTV 532 Posted October 24, 2013 Posted October 24, 2013 The music sounds so retro mcguyver cheesy like he's about to diffuse a bomb but I love it lol

[YT]81QOISIAf6E[/YT] It really does look like a ripoff between KABC and the Belo Package but still, this was something that was long overdue for that station.
caliwxdude 254 Posted October 25, 2013 Posted October 25, 2013 The moving vertical/horizontal lines and transitions remind me of the package Hothaus did for Griffin's KWTV and KOTV in Oklahoma. Has anyone checked to see if they debuted these during the 5pm show today? KFMB doesn't live stream so I can't check from outside of the market.
tvtime07 252 Posted October 25, 2013 Posted October 25, 2013 The new CBS News 8 graphics debuted during the 5pm newscast, and it's somewhat similar to San Diego 6's/KABC's; overall, I like the change, but the new graphics don't go well with old the set though.
Leavellebrett 85 Posted October 25, 2013 Posted October 25, 2013 I don't recognize the music. It's still Connection. I can hear the signature in it. It may be an update to Connection, but I don't know that. EDIT: I stand corrected. I just watched the montage on the other thread. I have never heard this package before. I have no idea what it is.
SFTV 532 Posted October 25, 2013 Posted October 25, 2013 Saw on Instagram they are using the new mic flag due to a car chase. Can't wait to see video.
