jestbiteme 13 Posted September 28, 2008 Posted September 28, 2008 I already started a thread about this in the Graphics forum, but if it's any station, it's WZZM: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_HQtnXzf4sM Just WZZM? Because those lowers are definitely the same. And what the hell?
WXmanTim 88 Posted September 28, 2008 Posted September 28, 2008 *bangs head against the wall* Why do they have two different on-screen logos?? Was it to much money to create a new "On Target Weather" logo to go with the new graphics? Bush league, man, bush league.
sg9018 10 Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 KXTV just got the new graphics. Here is the youtube video (Open and Close) just uploaded by Youtube user bartmankron4,
swillh2k2 206 Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 Hmm...it looks like Gannett is going with a custom music and GFX package for its stations, like H/A and MG...
Que 73 Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 Hmm...it looks like Gannett is going with a custom music and GFX package for its stations, like H/A and MG... Where have you been? Overall I think it looks good. But I think it is too over the top for some of Gannett's stations.
swillh2k2 206 Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 I knew about the GFX part, but I didn't know that the theme would be used on multiple Gannett stations until watching the KXTV video...
Mrtraveler01 739 Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 I just can't picture KSDK with these.
Jess 1115 Posted September 30, 2008 Posted September 30, 2008 Music - probably done by Pyburn partner James Ryan at Rampage Music - is extremely awful. I don't really see how this can be used across the light, touchy-feely stations like KARE...
TSSZNews 1053 Posted October 2, 2008 Posted October 2, 2008 I think KXTV pulls it off a lot better than WZZM does. -T
kjohnson 17 Posted October 2, 2008 Posted October 2, 2008 These would be a huge step backward for KSDK. Although none of the stations that have these are HD. This will make KPLR's graphics look good...
tvweatherman 0 Posted October 2, 2008 Posted October 2, 2008 These would be a huge step backward for KSDK. Although none of the stations that have these are HD. This will make KPLR's graphics look good... I AGREE with you 100%!!!
alaskanews 123 Posted October 2, 2008 Posted October 2, 2008 I guess this means KUSA is dumping their custom music package they've had for years, and I believe just had remastered.
evwalker09 2 Posted October 2, 2008 Posted October 2, 2008 WUSA is launching their new look @ 5 today. I captured a 5pm tease and it appears they are using the blue version of the graphics. Attached is a screenshot of their 7 day forecast on their website. Ill post the open later on.
rhombics447 1 Posted October 2, 2008 Posted October 2, 2008 WUSA is launching their new look @ 5 today. I captured a 5pm tease and it appears they are using the blue version of the graphics. Attached is a screenshot of their 7 day forecast on their website. Ill post the open later on. I think that's what WKYC will use. They're still using their in-house amber rotator graphics. I have no clue when they're making the switch (could be today, for all I know), though they tend to do changes (such as sponsors) on Mondays. What I have seen of the graphics change has only been online in 'KYC's case. See the attachments...
evwalker09 2 Posted October 2, 2008 Posted October 2, 2008 I have uploaded a montage of WUSAs 5/6pm newscast tonight. check it out here:
Ntropolis 600 Posted October 2, 2008 Posted October 2, 2008 I have uploaded a montage of WUSAs 5/6pm newscast tonight. check it out here: Gah, I hate that music, but it's catchy at the same time! Kinda like the MG theme...
TennTV1983 811 Posted October 2, 2008 Posted October 2, 2008 Yuck. So Gannett has commissioned a standardized music package for its stations as well? Why couldn't they have gone the route of Belo instead of the route of H-A and Media General?
Ntropolis 600 Posted October 2, 2008 Posted October 2, 2008 Looking at their website, WFMY is now using these (blue version).
Mrtraveler01 739 Posted October 2, 2008 Posted October 2, 2008 Gah, I hate that music, but it's catchy at the same time! Kinda like the MG theme... I know what you mean. It's just like the sinclair music package to me. It's catchy.
CLT-DCA-ORF-PTI 87 Posted October 2, 2008 Posted October 2, 2008 Wow Even WFMY has switched over to the new Graphics!
Ntropolis 600 Posted October 3, 2008 Posted October 3, 2008 Wow Even WFMY has switched over to the new Graphics! Well yeah... every Gannett station is getting these sooner or later... it's not on WXIA, WTLV/WJXX, WTSP, KARE, WKYC, and others yet.
Dude From VA 0 Posted October 3, 2008 Posted October 3, 2008 The music sounds kinda Enforcer-ish....kinda.
abric 186 Posted October 3, 2008 Posted October 3, 2008 Add WLTX to the changes. They are using the red graphics, but in the videos they are still using their current logo and it sticks out like a sore thumb.
Ntropolis 600 Posted October 3, 2008 Posted October 3, 2008 Add WLTX to the changes. They are using the red graphics, but in the videos they are still using their current logo and it sticks out like a sore thumb. It's like the logo went in a time machine from 1995 to 2008...
