Various TV Newscast Opens and Promos, Part 94

[jcburns]

Some of this was just learning how to work the Quantel Paintbox 'on the job' so to speak. And yeah, I'm not very nuanced sometimes.

you've struck gold the WPLG clip. great job!

Bill O'Reilly at WCVB at the end. Rare.

I didn't know KOVR was based in Stockton, not West Sacramento.

That was the first jcbD open for 'PLG before the famed 1986-92 open with Ernie Anderson at the V/O?

NO FLIPPIN' WAY.

*DROPS JAW*

@videonut33 That's very cool to see. Whoever was running the Quantel Paintbox on that one added way, way too many highlights and shadows and stuff. Oh wait, that was me. (and of course it was the TVbD era.)

[raymieX]

@jcburns Yeah. After you split from TVbD your design style began to be a bit less understated than theirs - the early P-N identities, like WPLG and WDIV, went way overboard. Gradually, they toned it down. Of course, most all TVbD work after the mid-late 90s loses my interest.

[ASKconard]

Wow, that WPLG open at 1:34 is great.

The Bill O'Reilly tease has a music bump that was used by KFSM. Was it perhaps related to The Image Leader?
