LexTVandRadio 418 Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 Has anyone seen any opens, graphics of the new CBS 4? I guess WISH is now a CW affiliate? Isn't that also owned by CBS? I did see a few shots of the studio and graphics on Facebook. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/14114-wttv/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did see a few shots of the studio and graphics on Facebook. Apparently WTTV is using 615's Moving Forward (ironically commissioned by another CBS 4, WFOR). Haven't seen any opens yet.

newsmusicfan 13 Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 Here is the morning opening. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/14114-wttv/#findComment-120666 Share on other sites More sharing options...
A3N 1002 Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 Here is the morning opening. That is a very nice open. The music fits well and I love the fact that they decided to forgo the voiceover. Seems like Tribune is going with 615 as their music provider. I wouldn't be surprised to hear a 615 pack for the FOX stations.

Breaking News 834 Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 I thought they would have the CBS enforcer music package, but so far not too shabby. I just don't care for the 4 logo.

ChesapeakeTV 311 Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 Loving the new graphics. Feels like Tribune's Fox look mixed in with elements of the current CBS O&O pack. I have to ask though...has anything changed at WISH? Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/14114-wttv/#findComment-120673 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Country News 435 Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 Here's a HD version of their open without the Bandicam logo. [yt]8RMN0W2j4TE[/yt] Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/14114-wttv/#findComment-120675 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToriElectra 292 Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 I have to ask though...has anything changed at WISH? Probably not; from what I can tell, they never were big on co-branding with CBS, and they likely aren't going to do the same with The CW outside network programs.

Devon 37 Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 Almost nothing has changed at WISHTV except they added an L bar graphic with weather and a news ticker during their newscasts.

CircleSeven 1956 Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 That is a very nice open. The music fits well and I love the fact that they decided to forgo the voiceover. Seems like Tribune is going with 615 as their music provider. I wouldn't be surprised to hear a 615 pack for the FOX stations. Marshall Hites (who was the CSD of KCAL, and later KTLA) is the CSD of the whole Trib group. He's basically the reason for bringing these new 615 themes to KCAL (Decade '90, Fahren-Hite/The Hammer/Newsforce (and maybe Newstime for KCBS)).

I could have sworn I heard a new theme on one of KSWB's promos a few weeks back. Sounded very 615-ish and had a FOX vibe to it. I'll see if I can record it sometime. Either way, Moving Forward really works for WTTV. I wasn't a big fan of it when it came out but for some reason it's tolerable with the way they are using it.

IndyNewsGuy 13 Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 No changes at WISH (minus that L-shaped/ESPN Style Bar). It's been business as usual. There is a advertising blitz for both stations. Billboards, radio ads, everything. And despite all the coverage of the changes on TV and in The Indianapolis Star, you still get the people that have been under a rock asking "where is my Price is Right?" or the people writing on WISH's Facebook page "Screw you WISH for getting rid of your CBS affiliation" forcing them to copy and paste the "CBS chose to leave us....yadda yadda yadda" response. Overall a warm welcome for CBS4 from the viewers. Minus some echoing in the studio, every broadcast has aired seamlessly like they've been doing it for years.

MichiganNewsGraphicsJunkie 929 Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 Is there a reason why they aren't doing their weather in front of a green screen?? I don't particularly care for all the thick black lines distorting the graphics...

Devon 37 Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 It was indicated in the WTTV Thread in the General Talk section that they didn't have room for a proper green screen (and I believe it, it is a smaller studio.)

Big Country News 435 Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 It has been confirmed that 5dotfive, the designers of the Tribune FOX package, have designed the WTTV package. https://vimeo.com/117344375 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/14114-wttv/#findComment-122704 Share on other sites More sharing options...
