JCB4TV 347 Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 WLBZ looks like it's next up... [MEDIA=twitter]939196643827699713[/MEDIA] Don't you mean WCSH since they serve as the backbone for WLBZ. The ND serves both the Maine outlets. Also, according to http://www.newscaststudio.com/2017/12/07/tegna-begins-group-wide-graphics-update-pops-color-minimalism/, it appears that TEGNA wants the new graphics on their NBC stations by February, Super Bowl and Olympics.

JCB4TV 347 Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 I'm liking what I see! I hope that somehow TEGNA can get their hands on KFOR/KAUT in the upcoming Sinclair/Tribune divestiture.

rkolsen 1684 Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 Here's WTNZ & WBIR's open: I like WBIR’s open. Seeing the few graphics in motion gave me a better impression. The only thing I would change is the color scheme of the ticker and time/temp. The white text on the light blue background is difficult to read. I’m also surprised stations still have HD sponsorships. I don't like them. Allow me to b!tch for a second. I f*#)ing HATE those weather graphics. Everything about them, but the weather icons especially. Was it Sinclair or Weather Channel who started that crap with using minimalist sun and clouds? Why? They're hard to see. Is that supposed to be a lightning bolt? Stupid. They're also ungodly huge. I knew most local news viewers are old, but are they all BLIND too? Their size only makes sense if the meteorologist isn't intended to be on screen at all. ... I get the whole idea of wanting to simply graphics like an app's user interface, but good lord. You're a television broadcast, not a cell phone broadcast. Look like it. They definitely need to work on the color schemes. However I think the weather icons are definitely inspired by the BBC’s weather graphics. As for the graphics looking like an app I would save that for mobile and social media with the abbreviations.

mardek1995 200 Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 All I can say is this... expect new graphics flowing on all TEGNA stations in 2018. Don't you mean WCSH since they serve as the backbone for WLBZ. The ND serves both the Maine outlets. Also, according to http://www.newscaststudio.com/2017/12/07/tegna-begins-group-wide-graphics-update-pops-color-minimalism/, it appears that TEGNA wants the new graphics on their NBC stations by February, Super Bowl and Olympics. What about their CBS stations? When will they roll them out? Here's WTNZ & WBIR's open: Who composed this new news music on the opens? Gari? 615? And what's it called?

CaptainNews 287 Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 Those Lower Thirds don’t fit at all and neither does it’s font. The L3’s animations need to change and the color scheme is ok. However, the ticker should be black or a darker blue. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/16084-tegnas-new-graphics/page/3/#findComment-191040 Share on other sites More sharing options...
C Block 1566 Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 Undercooked. That's my assessment. Also, the purple isn't going to look good at most stations.

Big Country News 435 Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 Who composed this new news music on the opens? Gari? 615? And what's it called? It's not new news music. It's production music from Killer Tracks called "World News Live" They could've done better.

Yeah, they really could've (and should've) done better. But what is the new news music that Tegna will have for the stations if they really are moving away from TiH by Gari?

jbnews 344 Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 It's not new news music. It's production music from Killer Tracks called "World News Live" They could've done better.

Conrad 113 Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 WBIR should stop thinking it's still 2011 by still promoting that they're in HD. And their open says that they're a TEGNA company. At least it's not at the level of Scripps' KGTV... As for the graphics looking like an app I would save that for mobile and social media with the abbreviations. The abbreviation "NXT" (which looks weird, even on a cell phone) reminds me of WKBW's (also a Scripps station, though Granite came up with that name) "AM BFLO". Unless it's a typo.

They all use it. WTMJ and WGBA don't seem to incorporate it in their title cards and bump music as much as the original 3 Scripps NBC stations do (especially KSHB), but they all use it. Scripps only owns 5 NBC affiliates, and doesn't have any master control hubs. The NBC variant of iNergy debuted with the Scripps package in 2012 on WPTV.
