24994J 5662 Posted January 29, 2015 Author Posted January 29, 2015 Well yeah that's crazy... even I didn't mean that... I just meant that virtually always there is some minor dip at least when a long-time face vanishes suddenly. I think it looks worse when the talent disappers and they release a new open without him the following Monday. Did anyone even so much as mention it on the air? Hell no, and there wasn't the sad mood overwhelming any broadcast like when Sylvia was fired. That, I think, hit a lot harder. I do find it hilarious that some people go on the internet to ask on the Facebook pages where someone is (in this case, Mike), yet can't be bothered to do a Google search to find out for themselves, because you know darn well the station won't respond. It's like those people are nosy enough to ask, but don't care enough/are too lazy/are too stupid to find out from other sources. I'm going to stop now, because I've come across as a little smarmy lately, and don't want to offend too many people.

That's because a good general rule a friend once told me usually rings true: People are, indeed, stupid. I hadn't noticed any smarmyness or anything... you really shouldn't be worried about offending people either but that's just my 2 cents. I think everybody has been pretty well behaved around here lately (well really always) so I think the discussions we have been having about this and other stuff have been pretty constructive.
ChiCubsFan 34 Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 So mike caplan is still in weather promos...
ns8401 964 Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 So mike caplan is still in weather promos... Somebody blew it in creative services or programming.
alex979 119 Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 So mike caplan is still in weather promos... That's embarasssing.... Was Cheryl in the promo?
24994J 5662 Posted January 31, 2015 Author Posted January 31, 2015 It is kind of amusing how like EVERY promo has to be heavily altered or eliminated because of one person...including the one I was in.

24994J 5662 Posted January 31, 2015 Author Posted January 31, 2015 I'm in the promo for when they hit a million on Facebook. I'm in front of Alan, Alan's in front of Linda, and Linda's in front of Mike.

Jase 1083 Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 That's embarasssing.... Was Cheryl in the promo? I don't think she is.
24994J 5662 Posted January 31, 2015 Author Posted January 31, 2015 They did add her to the Jerry-voiced promo in the 5.5 meteorologist era...all 4 weeks of it.
24994J 5662 Posted January 31, 2015 Author Posted January 31, 2015 The weekend talent opens are back in time for sweeps with Dionne added and Karen reshot. Bobblehead Ravi remains.
ns8401 964 Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 The weekend talent opens are back in time for sweeps with Dionne added and Karen reshot. Bobblehead Ravi remains. I'm actually in town this weekend so I got to see it on an actual tv... I thought it looked pretty good overall.
24994J 5662 Posted February 1, 2015 Author Posted February 1, 2015 We're in business. I'll get the 10 o'clock rejoin up sometime tomorrow in between snacks while a foot of snow gets dumped on us. [yt]qNCJHP6OExU[/yt]
BehindNYNews 147 Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 I never noticed the bobble head until now but that is really bad. Like that needs to be fixed.
ns8401 964 Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 Looks really good 'J, this is off the OTA right? That bobble head is somewhat amusing but it definitely needs to vamoose.
24994J 5662 Posted February 1, 2015 Author Posted February 1, 2015 Yeah, it's over the air. You can always tell the OTA videos versus the ones recorded off the online stream, the latter are louder.
ns8401 964 Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 Yeah, it's over the air. You can always tell the OTA videos versus the ones recorded off the online stream, the latter are louder. Gotcha, I see it stayed HD for you, mine downgrade to 480p upon conversion. If you get time i'd be interested to know how you edit them.
cbs2worksforyou 44 Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 For everyone talking about bobble head Ravi, I don't the open with Linda Yu who looks like she is talking and has Her mouth open. I think I saw it in the 4 pm open someone posted

I think I saw it in the 4 pm open someone posted Seems like she's saying 'Hey!!' which is fine. Ravi's is just weird and probably should have been caught.
ChiCubsFan 34 Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 In the old 11am opening, Sylvia and Linda both look like they're saying "Hi" and Tracy saying "That's Bullshit"
24994J 5662 Posted February 2, 2015 Author Posted February 2, 2015 I second that, but if I didn't know any better, I'd say his hinges are little tighter in the 10 open (which will be forthcoming).
ns8401 964 Posted February 2, 2015 Posted February 2, 2015 It actually cuts quicker so he doesn't have time to fully bobble.
