NEOMatrix 1295 Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 Fox 19 Now? Can't seem to put my finger on it but the logo looks so underwhelming. Anyone care to wager that WOIO is going to be CBS 19 Now? What about "OIO Now"? I know it dosen't sound like a great brand for a CBS affiliate but I think it's catchy.

ToriElectra 291 Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 OIO Now actually sounds kind of cool. Now, what I'm wondering is that, during all their time as Action News, why didn't they change the general station logo to match the news logo? It's always seemed kinda off.

Anyone care to wager that WOIO is going to be CBS 19 Now? Uhh... I'll pass. Not because I doubt it will happen, but because "CBS 19 Now" makes "Hometeam 19" sound great in comparison.

tyrannical bastard 3471 Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 Not to mention that both WOIO and WXIX compete with Scripps stations (and in other places), and Scripps has this news-like thingy called "The Now"..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ehatt493 31 Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 Interesting name. Yeah lets go with CBS 19 Now. I wonder if they will re brand WAVE 3 News Now. That is a mouth full. God, I wish they'd drop "WAVE 3 News" as their branding. Looks ridiculous airing a syndicated talk show with a WAVE 3 NEWS bug on the screen.

Mrtraveler01 737 Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Add WTOL to the list of stations using the new Raycom weather graphics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CircleSeven 1944 Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Add WBTV 3 to the list. And a new set too. EDIT: Just now realized that swillh2k2 posted some caps earlier today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRolyPoly 1847 Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Add WBTV 3 to the list. And a new set too. EDIT: Just now realized that swillh2k2 posted some caps earlier today. The anchors are finally sitting down? Its about time. I didn't like how WBTV used to have anchors stand up for minutes or even hours at a time in their previous set. Plus, I like the new graphics and their new WeatherCenter is just mind boggling. I actually really like the change for WBTV. Good for them.

memnews1 25 Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 I'm not sure that's how Raycom wants it to look, WLBT.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NWA_TV_guy 148 Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 This is how WLBT's morning meteorologist used the new graphics on-air. [ATTACH]1484.IPB[/ATTACH] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NWA_TV_guy 148 Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 I'm not sure that's how Raycom wants it to look, WLBT.... Some of their on-air meteorologists use the graphics correctly. Some don't...and it's awful (such as this image). Look at the graphics on their website in the weather section (www.msnewsnow.com). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEOMatrix 1295 Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 I'm not sure that's how Raycom wants it to look, WLBT.... Wow they need to bolden the font on that. Plus, why are the WLBT meteorologist allowed to variate the font so much? There should only be one font to use and that's it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yikes... amazing how off the mark their stuff looks with absolutely no consistency..... and STILL one of the few, if not the only Raycom station, not using an Arnold music package.

The entire newscast still has not switched to the new graphics (possibly explaining why the 7-day forecast background reflects the previous graphics package). When they do switch, I wouldn't be surprised if WLBT switches to a new music package. The 7-day graphic we are talking about is one of a few they feature on their website. The on-air presentation is not as bad. The newscast at Noon was much better as far as the weather graphics are concerned. Some people like the flexibility of changing fonts, etc., but I, personally, wish this option was disabled. The time and money was spent to make these graphics look a certain way. I am certain not all people are concerned with the fonts, etc., but it DOES make a difference in the presentation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikePulse 315 Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 ... and STILL one of the few, if not the only Raycom station, not using an Arnold music package. For now, Gari's Enforcer is still playing in Cleveland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Country News 435 Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 And who made these? Is there a preview / montage video? Possibly Jeff Domitrz, the designer who made the previous Raycom packages. His Vimeo: https://vimeo.com/jeffdomitrz His Website: http://www.jdmotiongraphics.com/ (This video of a possible WFIE graphic looks a lot like the new graphics.)

NEOMatrix 1295 Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Anyone want to bet since WOIO will get the new package whether or not it will incorporate the orange colors into the package to signify the Browns? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TennTV1983 743 Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Domitrz no longer does work for Raycom as of last year. The new graphics were made by Limerick Studios, Raycom's subsidiary in Charlotte. http://www.limerickstudios.com The only video I could find was a demo of the new weather graphics from WBTV meteorologist, Eric Thomas.
