C Block 1566 Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 I thought it was worth starting a thread versus reducing this to the chat box. Aside from the WCBS logo change and rumored new/refreshed graphics coming to CBS O&Os soon, KCBS has been broadcasting from the KCAL studio since at least Monday, and it looks like all the O&O websites were refreshed today with a new, darker banner. Exciting times ahead... Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/15084-cbs-oo-changes/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
CtrlAltDelete 0 Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 Hey Charles KCBS and KCAL will be getting a new set but KCBS just got a new intro as well there were many bugs in the tickers and graphics today as well.

24994J 5595 Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 What's the new intro? I found a video on YouTube of a recent 11pm open that's using a ribbon-like teaser graphic, but it's been in use for several months.

CtrlAltDelete 0 Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 Hey Charles, your right I knew I wasn't seeing things when I turned on 2 but I am happy to tell you that CBS 2 will be getting a new set, they already have a new title open. Glad to see that this is coming soon... Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/15084-cbs-oo-changes/#findComment-149614 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hexagonal10 84 Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 I have found a lower third and a little more from KCAL. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/15084-cbs-oo-changes/#findComment-149619 Share on other sites More sharing options...
24994J 5595 Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 Those graphics are being used on CBS 2 at 5, too. I was optimistic when I got a preview of the open, but if this is what they're going with for the lower thirds, that's really disappointing. They just recolored the exact same template as before.

CtrlAltDelete 0 Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 I haven't seen those lower thirds yet they used the old ones this morning but no, the intro is more like the title card, when they showed the girl missing just a little more like NECN's intro.

CtrlAltDelete 0 Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 May I also point out these Lower thirds are very similar to NBC O&O now almost exact just light blue.

CtrlAltDelete 0 Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 So here's the thing this is the new CBS O&O but the testing phase they selected Los Angeles versus New York this time. Just an update. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/15084-cbs-oo-changes/#findComment-149637 Share on other sites More sharing options...
SFTV 528 Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 The color tones on the L3 scream KABC and the Breaking News Red Tab looks similar to KFMB. Looks like a Hothaus spinoff. Also the bug shows FB, Twitter and IG all in one with CBSLA.com next to it. I wonder how it will go with KPIX since they brand FB as KPIX, yet their Twitter is still CBSsf. However it might change because the past week, their pop up Tabs in the newscasts says "CBSSanFrancisco."

A3N 1002 Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 I like that they finally colored the LIVE bug. Still don't understand why KCBS still uses the VDO-era SKY2 bug... And honestly, this update doesn't look too bad. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/15084-cbs-oo-changes/#findComment-149642 Share on other sites More sharing options...
rah6448 21 Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 It would seem like KCBS is now using a new cut of the Enforcer 2013 Update for the opens now (at least for the 11PM newscast) that's paced like the Series 5 primary open, but the bed is far bass-ier, and the signature is harder edged. Anyone thinking the same? What did CBS 2 have for the 11am or the 5pm?

As for the music, a few generations of Enforcer are in use, so I don't know if the updates (not confirmed as NG5) will spread.

Anyone thinking the same? What did CBS 2 have for the 11am or the 5pm? Since the 2013 update, KCBS never adapted to the new music and stuck with the NG2 series. Only for the opens but it was always mish mashed. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/15084-cbs-oo-changes/#findComment-149702 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ABC 7 Denver 1725 Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 Is any or all CBS O&Os getting their graphics updated? Yes. Starting before sweeps at WCBS and KCBS and then dispersing to the rest of the CBS Television properties. Everybody but WJZ, of course. As for the music, a few generations of Enforcer are in use, so I don't know if the updates (not confirmed as NG5) will spread. There is a new disc, however Gari has abandoned the 'New Generation' branding concept. Not all O&Os are required to use the new update disc. Be prepared for Soul of the City to stick around for a bit longer. I can confirm that the open in this new graphics package has been compressed and is a lot shorter.

tjt24 313 Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 Yes. Starting after sweeps at WCBS and KCBS and then dispersing to the rest of the CBS Television properties. I like the L3s in this package, but not the open. Is this the new package or is there a completely new package coming? Hopefully its 16:9...

tjt24 313 Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 This is it! The open is ehh. The L3s are alright. The logo bug is pretty good. But why would WCBS get the KCBS 2?
