I firmly believe that they've gone so far in on this project that there's no way they're going to delay it until next year. They want to get it right and not rushed like what we saw with WFLA's implementation of this pkg. ^ THIS.

tyrannical bastard 3953 Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 Already been switched due to the Hurricane, and I heard Guardian (it's not that it's a bad package, but it's used sooooooooo often, almost as much as Aerial) 3 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/17286-new-koin-graphics/page/3/#findComment-252738 Share on other sites More sharing options...
newsn8te 200 Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 (edited) Looks like Nexstar’s Abilene Telemundo affiliate is using Guardian and the KOIN graphics.

groupwfan 97 Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 Two (no pun intended) things 'KRN done right: brought back the Helvetica "2" (from the WNGE era, their first call letter change) and getting the KOIN6 GFX. 2 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/17286-new-koin-graphics/page/3/#findComment-253789 Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyrannical bastard 3953 Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 (edited) It's keeping the momentum going at WKRN for sure. They had a good thing with the prior look, and this one works just as well. It's a great package that will work for virtually any Nexstar station, since it's not tied to a particular network's logos or styling. Some of the supers need work, but that's a producer thing so they don't cram too many words into the top line, and the "auto-squish" kicks in. While I like WSMV's look overall, it's maybe a little too flashy for them. If they were CBS or FOX, I'd be ok with it. The packages that WGCL and WHNS have work well for them. Unfortunately WTVF came down with the Scripps-itis. I don't know how they're doing these days, but it can't be good news for them, presentation-wise. And WZTV is your run-of-the-mill Sinclair station, J-Bar, Code Red and all.....

Man, where did this guy get this recording from? That Breaking News open definitely running at a crispy 60fps, and I love it. Is WKRN airing in 60fps? I'd assume they may be switching at 60 but transmitting at 29.97, unless I'm missing something? Either way, I think this package is an excellent fit. Also, mad props to the talent for just rolling with the punches off the top. I've seen an anchor or two absolutely crash and burn when stuff goes wrong, so good on them. 5 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/17286-new-koin-graphics/page/3/#findComment-253795 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way, I think this package is an excellent fit. WKRN, like most ABC affiliates, does broadcast in 720p/59.94fps, so they must either live in the market or have access to an Cable/Satellite/OTT feed. Most of the OTT providers can pass through the same quality feed as they are broadcast. And there are ways to get these OTT feeds out of market.... I did catch one of their spots saying to "watch us on Roku!" Which is technically impossible because, well Nexstar. (unless it's FINALLY in the cards?) The only way is if you subscribe to an OTT service that carries them, which Hulu is NOT one of them at this time due to a retransmisison spat. 1 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/17286-new-koin-graphics/page/3/#findComment-253802 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichiganNewsGraphicsJunkie 916 Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 Not sure if this should go here or the Graphics Knockoff thread... Hubbard's WDIO in Duluth has a very close resemblance to the KOIN graphics.... Slight tweaks but definitely the motions are there.... Weather graphics are definitely the KOIN variety 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/17286-new-koin-graphics/page/3/#findComment-253889 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The WDIO were done by Linear Drift and that package was around before KOIN so not a knockoff. They were done by the same people. 3 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/17286-new-koin-graphics/page/3/#findComment-253904 Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyrannical bastard 3953 Posted November 27, 2020 Share Posted November 27, 2020 (edited) Gray has similar lower thirds at some of their stations, but it seems to be a common trend to have the adjustable boxes for the top lower third. NBC's Today, the ABC O&O's, and others have been doing it for a while, as well.
