For your consideration, I present WOI-TV's post Oscars newscast from March 23, 1998. They were at the time on a temporary set, a new one (along with the ABC affiiliates theme) would debut in exactly one week: Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/869-classic-video-thread-pre-2008/page/305/#findComment-223920 Share on other sites More sharing options...

hmaxhanson 650 Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 (edited) It's been on YT for several months, but here I present for you an episode of WOI-TV's Five Country Closeup from January 8, 1980, which includes a slick early-CGI ID using The Best Things in Life: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n7srqi8itko The ID was created by a Seattle-based firm called Alpha Cine (who also designed graphics for KOMO & KSTW): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xwuOJ8zTg3g And that's by no means all! In another video, I found the news open they had back then, which used a new cut of TBTIL that I've not heard before: https://youtu.be/Q8tOk9Fto94?t=1829 Edited March 30, 2019 by hmaxhanson 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/869-classic-video-thread-pre-2008/page/305/#findComment-223987 Share on other sites More sharing options...

hmaxhanson 650 Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 (edited) And here's another episode of Five Country Closeup from September 1979, proving that the logo debuted that year (in case @Info Junkie wants to upload the ID by itself, and the maybe news open too): Watch at the end for a commercial break that was from the previous recording!

Honestly I’m kinda mad at myself cause I went through those videos while I was making the WOI compilation - and didn’t even bother looking hard enough to find the 1980 open! Also @Ntropolishas found an article on WTKR’s 1994 botched tabloid relaunch with the (possibility) unknown GFX company that I’ve been looking for identified! https://www.dailypress.com/news/dp-xpm-19940910-1994-09-10-9409100141-story.html 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/869-classic-video-thread-pre-2008/page/305/#findComment-223993 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samantha 2895 Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 Yo, nice find by Ntropolis there. LoConte Goldman closed in January 2000 after seven years. It was based in Boston and I do see some chatter in posts here that they did the OG Hearst package in 1995. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/869-classic-video-thread-pre-2008/page/305/#findComment-223999 Share on other sites More sharing options...

A WNYT interview circa 2005 on Donald Trump visiting Albany, followed by a promo on the Catholic Church (features the “LIVE, LOCAL, LATEBREAKING” tag under the News Channel 13 logo).

It even includes another sample of that late 1970s KOOL-TV theme: If you've ever wondered where you can see Mary Jo West these days: By the way, is the clip below the only one we've ever seen of West during her 1983-'86 stint at KTVK?
