Weeters 1811 Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Holy mismatched lower third fonts. I'm sure people are going to say this is "Blue Helio", but I pick up a VDO vibe from some of the elements and the way things animate on/off in the opens. I can't seem to find their website anymore, though. I wonder what happened with them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 VDO was pushed out of business by Giant Octopus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qunewsguy 376 Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Mystery solved: The graphics were apparently done by "Linear Drift". https://vimeo.com/123311965 I can only assume it's an internal department of the former LIN corporation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LexTVandRadio 412 Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Nice! Looks great. I am sure they will get calls about the logo and text out of the "safe zone" for SD viewers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEOMatrix 1295 Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 There's some common elements amongst Linear Drift. Would they have happened to do the graphics for WKBN? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TennTV1983 748 Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Nice! Looks great. I am sure they will get calls about the logo and text out of the "safe zone" for SD viewers. Not unless the SD feed is letterboxed, which is what the package is suggesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hexagonal10 84 Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 They made a bunch of LIN stuff, So is LIN going to switch to the MGFX or keep these after 3 years? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEOMatrix 1295 Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 They made a bunch of LIN stuff, So is LIN going to switch to the MGFX or keep these after 3 years? Since MG is under Sadusky, I do expect MG to reflect LIN more so than old MG so LIN is more than likely going to keep them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think what we knew as Blue Helio actually was/evolved into Linear Drift... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure they did WTNH too, and KOIN... so on... They're too similar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qunewsguy 376 Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 I'm thinking LINear Drift given the clients represented, however it's possible this is Rey. I do see a couple common elements between the WABC graphics and WJCL (and also the CBS O&O look within the same package). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
