Ntropolis 593 Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 Wilmington's WWAY is in the process of dumping the old Liberty VDO package for these. Some of the old graphics are around in places. The old opens are still on at least the morning newscasts, but the evening ones have these new graphics. Music (Right Here, Right Now) is still the same. The new graphics are cheap, but WWAY is cheap... Here are a few of the traces of the old graphics... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ncsuwxman 6 Posted April 7, 2007 Share Posted April 7, 2007 Definitely cheap looking, but not really horrible. However, it's not an improvement, either. Don't tell me they're copying WECT with the newscast in front of the chroma key thing. To me, that format portrays cheapness more than any graphics do.

The few days I was down there this week, I didn't see WECT use the chromakey for news. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newsie 11 Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 This has nothing to do with the graphics, but I have a cousin who is the director for the 5-6:30 WWAY newscasts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ntropolis 593 Posted April 8, 2007 Author Share Posted April 8, 2007 Yeah, those graphics are most likely only for their promos...promos can have a completely different look than the news. Raycom is mandating all the Liberty stations phase out the Liberty package though, and pick 1 of the (3?) Raycom graphics packages. No... WWAY was sold to Morris Multimedia because Raycom already owns WECT. They're still using the Liberty package for show promos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
