Samantha 2895 Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 KPHO, Phoenix; 11:30 a.m., 1993 -- the station's last full year as an independent: September 1993... Ooh! So KPHO would have debuted a new look in March of 94, which might not have lasted long at all. I thought *this* was the new look the Republic mentioned when it noted KPHO rolled out new graphics, music and set at the start of March 1994... Also, that Albany clip looks weird because the uploader added that effect that tilts and shifts everything around from time to time. I hate it. Absolutely hate it. —— Some Seattle material in this motion graphics compilation from 1985.

scrabbleship 429 Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 Some more Albany stuff from the 1990s, this time in much better quality: WTEN 11:00 PM open, 1991 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id=zqby-jepbUk;list=PLAMxOcgO3l2NtcG9IXsrEBCnh7X-rkDFv WRGB 11:00 PM open, 1/12/1994 A set of 1998 WRGB opens after they changed to InSink. And as a semi-relevant bonus, the musical element to the "See, Hear" program mentioned in the earlier file. Relevant because somehow L3's and the closing graphic WNYT used at the time do appear.

sctvhound 27 Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 Here's a morning re-open from WCSC's morning news. No date given on this, but I'd say it is sometime between 1995 and 1997, since they still were in their downtown Charleston studios.

Samantha 2895 Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 Evan Mecham is the star in this 1987 KPHO news excerpt.

Samantha 2895 Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 Oh yeahhhhh... One of my white whales is the KFOR early 90s theme, so this makes me happy as heck. What's interesting is that "News Team 4" was out before the theme and graphics. The only other clip available surfaced in a KFOR montage uploaded around Bob Barry's death. It featured an almost-clean 30-second cut of what seems to be a news theme and potential image package.

newsn8te 200 Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 I wonder if In-Sink V1 got an "Update" before V2 was commissioned--though the question then is whether it was ever folded into the proper syndicated package... They used the V.1 cuts for the vamp after the 5pm open and also for the weather and sports opens, and some of the instrumentation in the open/talent open sounds like V1, but both of those themes, especially the theme used for the talent, have the "ticker" sound that V2 has. I've just always wonder which version those themes belong to. Does anyone know if any other stations besides WRGB AND WTHI have used those 2 themes?

Samantha 2895 Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 Eek, only saw the second post. Hoping for some more material from the uploader soon — one of the few people with a lot of Phoenix stuff. But I've never seen this WCPO open from the fall of 1985. I guess Newschannel *preceded* the Jay Gilbert theme from 1986!? 2 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/869-classic-video-thread-pre-2008/page/129/#findComment-159059 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChesapeakeTV 311 Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 Yes, it absolutely did - the open appears in the 1985 TVbD demo, and they were using lower thirds along the same lines as late as 1989. I suspect they may have picked it up in 1984. I actually thought that was common knowledge and the NMSA had just never updated the ordering...

tw-804 192 Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 WCTE (Cookeville, TN) Upper Cumberland Tonight open. The open is now on the NMSA but listed it as the "WCTE 1991 News Theme". It's actually PBS' "Just Watch Us Now" theme ( ) from the early 1990s. Speaking of that, here is WFWA's (Fort Wayne, IN; also a PBS station) sign-off. The instrumental version of the "Just Watch Us Now" theme starts at the 0:57 mark. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id=kZ6azNe_A2U;t=57 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/869-classic-video-thread-pre-2008/page/129/#findComment-159096 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ntropolis 596 Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 A short-lived KMBC open from 1994 that was sort of an update to their 1992 open, sort of not: Same user uploaded KMBC's original Hearst-Argyle open (from 1998) with the claim that it began in 1995, which wouldn't be far-fetched because that's when those graphics began on WCVB, which raises the question... did KMBC ever actually use Newswire? I want to say it might have been listed on ASCAP but I've seen no video proof of Newswire on KMBC. 4 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/869-classic-video-thread-pre-2008/page/129/#findComment-159098 Share on other sites More sharing options...
