Samantha 2895 Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 Along with 18 minutes of KIMT's 10pm news in 1994, you get a Buick commercial voiced by Ron Rolland and a commercial for Rod Grams's US Senate campaign (yes, that Rod Grams)! 3 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/869-classic-video-thread-pre-2008/page/228/#findComment-198282 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ntropolis 596 Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Along with 18 minutes of KIMT's 10pm news in 1994, you get a Buick commercial voiced by Ron Rolland and a commercial for Rod Grams's US Senate campaign (yes, that Rod Grams)! At the time, then-Spartan sister station WBTW had a similar set with the glass blocks... theirs had shades of purple and amber.

justin2kx 237 Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Wow, the whole 10-minute version in one video AND high quality!? Not to mention the 'you're on' music itself held up damn well after all these years, endearing for a promo campaign. And i'm a fan of some underground/house/tech of 90's type of music. 3 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/869-classic-video-thread-pre-2008/page/228/#findComment-198295 Share on other sites More sharing options...

justin2kx 237 Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 have you seen WREYtube's clip of "It's My Miami" promotional campaign from '83? (also included is WTVJ News 4 team promo) Wolfson Archive has posted a WTVJ 2-part news report on the campaign launch, featuring reporter Robyn Carter, later of WNYW's Good Day NY + WCBS-TV. Even though, debatable, it might have been too cheery even for Miami's taste, given well documented accounts on the city's troubles, it was a baby step compared to the launch of an 'unofficial promo campaign' a year later called...'Miami Vice', which is self explanatory.

hmaxhanson 650 Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 Here's another edition of Newservice, also from 1974, but with a different open, set, and theme: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id=WV42op7PcLA;m=6;s=7 I researched online, and that was from September 4, 1974, the same day as the Paul Moyer newscast uploaded a few month ago. Which means the clip uploaded today was the very first newscast with the updated Newservice logo, used until they became NewsCenter4 in March of 1976. Here is the 6pm Newservice from earlier in the day, with the original interlocking NB-KNBC and box 4 logo from 1968: 2 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/869-classic-video-thread-pre-2008/page/228/#findComment-198408 Share on other sites More sharing options...
WAVY 10 Fan 233 Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 From NewsActive3, this might be the earliest local newscast from the D.C. area (only earlier news video from the nation's capital I've run across was some local cut-ins alongside CBS News coverage of the 1968 Indiana primary); a WTOP newscast from July 29, 1968 2 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/869-classic-video-thread-pre-2008/page/228/#findComment-198435 Share on other sites More sharing options...

ToriElectra 292 Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 This is about the fifth set I've seen that has the girders, the monitor banks, the rounded desk, etc. The most infamous one would be KNXV's "spaceship" set, and I've seen similar ones in use at WGNX (during the late indie/early CBS era), WOIO/WUAB (during the "Cleveland Television News" period), and maybe a couple others. Does anybody know who designed all these sets? 3 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/869-classic-video-thread-pre-2008/page/228/#findComment-198608 Share on other sites More sharing options...
