newscenter 0 Posted February 16, 2010 Share Posted February 16, 2010 There are stations out there, which they adopt the network's graphic and animations, and use them for news opens and graphics. For example: WXMI FOX-17 took the graphics and animation from the network SO FOX campaign, and used it for news opens and graphics Talent open - where they use the same animation for anchors, as the network does for stars like Keifer Sutherland (24), Simon Cowell (Idol) and Simpsons http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gd6ZtOcFAqA&feature=related News Open - where they use the animation, even to close the FOX promos by saying SO FOX http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FSgKun_bwOU&feature=related Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WCAUTVNBC10 408 Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 I've always have been a fan of stations that took this approach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ntropolis 593 Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 Seems like a handful of ABC stations have incorporated the "Start Here" sounder/animation to their news opens, such as WISN: KLAS used their own local version of the CBS Evening News graphics for their opens from 1992-1995. Videoholic uploaded it to Youtube, but took it down. When WTVT became "FOX 13 Eyewitness News" they incorporated the FOX ID into their already-existing open: KYTX uses their own version of the old CBS Evening News graphics.

TennTV1983 747 Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 Do these look familiar? Yeah, that was during a time when WGCL was (is?) still in identity crisis mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's pretty cool. 615 Music's "The Unexpected" definitely fits 'em. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d247 43 Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 KIAH-TV in Houston uses the current CW look for thier newscasts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mightynine 287 Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 For a while, WWL-TV took their graphics cue for the L3s from CBS News - here's their red and yellow look from the early 90s: The next look after this, I believe, was when they started to head out on their own.

kjohnson 15 Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 WXMI's are very well done. It would be nice to see stations do that more often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tvweatherman 0 Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 WXMI's are very well done. It would be nice to see stations do that more often. They are alright, but I think it's to much gray!! Just like WGN.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cityprod 9 Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 Here in the UK, BBC regions and ITV regions use the same graphics as their network cousins. S4C uses BBC graphics because BBC produce their news programme. RTE in Ireland has no local news service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
