Samantha 2895 Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Though I'm posting the latest NA3 part in the 2000-present thread because it focuses on a lot of present-day opens, there are two awesome items in Part 83: -A KAIT open from circa 1989 using The Image Leader. The graphics were made by the station but are clearly Television by Design-influenced. -A WABI open from 1999 that might be a couple years older. Despite not being a channel 4, they decided to rip off KCNC's Image X-era graphics. There might be some influence from their Spirit News-era graphics (beginning), too. Results are a mixed bag, including what I consider poor timing decisions.

Samantha 2895 Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Part 4 of what is probably one of the best new finds in years. Highlights include a WSFA 6pm open with the Alabama's News Source package, a WPMI open with the voice of Larry Van Nuys, and the first ever proven use of Lattitude Music's More People Watch.
