Samantha 2895 Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 KATU teasers 1996. Note the really cool Spirit update that KATU was using at this time. The package is more extensive than I knew it to be: http://www.youtu.be/rb9ZCF0cOLg You've seen it before: KPDX's Millennium 3 open. Well, here it is again. 1998. I believe the designer is Rude Honey. http://www.youtu.be/9xK1K3oK7SM A KGW update from 1983, with the original NewsCenter theme: http://www.youtu.be/mnXlPfAjOug Some open collections compiled by a user. All are from the same late 1989 time frame into early 1990. . Note the 6pm KTVU open, with the mysterious KDFW-WKBD-WGAL news theme. Other great stuff. . What is the KING 5 news theme? . The real good ones are the WSB Nightbeat open with a special cut of their 1989 news theme and what I believe is the original open to WGNX's 10pm news. And dig this open!

Samantha 2895 Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 WJLA Newscope open, 1980s sometime: http://archive.org/details/tobacco_wiw27a00 KKTV's Midday: http://archive.org/details/tobacco_zdy27a00 *RUNS TWO HOURS* New Orleans news from 1985: http://archive.org/details/tobacco_ogq23e00 — Includes a WWL Elena Special Report open (and others including a 5pm cut I've never heard at about 29:00 and a morning open that might be another theme at 39:00), WVUE opens (both The Chase and 1985 theme, in that order; looks like they switched over summer of 1985), and WDSU opens (5pm at 46:50 or so, noon at 56:00).

Samantha 2895 Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 A big chunk of that are those New Orleans opens from 1985. But the Internet Archive is such a bear.

Samantha 2895 Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 San Diego (and more!) There's KUSI promos, etc. in this tennis tournament video. More tennis than news opens this time: http://archive.org/d...obacco_sgq23e00 KNSD c.1992. Some sort of town hall program called Third Thursday. Unusually for the Archive, commercials are included throughout! The package is Groove News; open about a minute in and bumpers at 13:00. http://archive.org/d...obacco_xwx27a00 KGTV's Inside San Diego (about 30 seconds in) from the TV by Design era: http://archive.org/d...obacco_xty27a00 More Virginia Slims: here's a Dallas montage: http://archive.org/d...obacco_nfq23e00 — includes the KDFW open to Sunday Sports Page (production music?) and some other stuff that has been seen. Miami: http://archive.org/d...obacco_wfq23e00 — What is Instant Replay Teleclip? There's decent stuff here, but many partial opens. More Miami, this time WSCV from 1992 (at 6pm and at 11pm). This is the same look that KTMD had that year 1991 5pm theme, but it's difficult to identify because the samples are so tightly trimmed. This theme was previously not known to be used by WSCV. http://archive.org/d...obacco_bxv27a00 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/869-classic-video-thread-pre-2008/page/60/#findComment-72691 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samantha 2895 Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 George Warren, anchor at KTVL and then KXTV at different points in the 1980s, has some TV news stuff up amidst mostly home videos.

Samantha 2895 Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 Charleston-Huntington West Virginia various, 1985. The WSAZ theme is And You. The WCHS theme is called "People You Can Count On" and is a news and image package.* WOWK is using the Action News Theme. *Known to have been used at and WBRZ Baton Rouge. Image campaign samples exist from both (follow the links). There's also a from KTNV that is used here to identify the theme. This WCHS 1987 station ID shows that they used the slogan into their ABC days. Other new finds. Asterisks indicate unknown or new themes. WETM, 1990* * (different from above copy; has CGI cars like the WILX open) (Palmer; TVbD) (Real News) Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/869-classic-video-thread-pre-2008/page/60/#findComment-72810 Share on other sites More sharing options...
10Viewer 334 Posted May 8, 2012 Share Posted May 8, 2012 Those Charleston opens are terrific. I was especially glad to see the WCHS opens, since I had heard brief cuts of that theme previously.

10Viewer 334 Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 Those WCAU promos appear to be the work of Klein &. I am assuming they probably composed the theme.
