A series of WHDH promos that aired on 7/11/94. Note the lack of alliteration! (Anyone want to suggest alliterative-friendly alternatives to "Unsafe Pools" and "Unsupervised Students"?)
My boss and I thought they were pretty good when I wrote and produced them and she approved then for air. And the titles (Unsafe Pools/Unsupervised Students) were written that way in order to link to UNrelated stories together in the same promo.
I had forgotten about Gilda Unrue (sp)! I find it alittle funny how a TV station speaks so boldly of looking after children! I'm surprised there was no additional footage of Ms. Unrue with a halo around her head and children gathered under her arms!
How about "Diving Danger" and "Unnaccompanied Minors" (I know that the last one isn't exactly an alliteration, but it sounds better for a news report!)
P.S. I'm glad the '94 WHDH promos I'm getting around to post are different than these!

I think it's cool that 16 years later, the same voice over is used for these promos.
