LexTVandRadio 412 Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 WINK has new lower 3rds. Anyone care to guess who they're imitating? http://www.winknews.com/2015/02/06/wink-news-investigates-whos-driving-your-childs-bus/ Looks like WKYT to me as well.

Samantha 2876 Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 I didn't realize until more recently how much WPDE's 1986-89 series opens were a direct ripoff of KPNX c1982-83: versus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrtraveler01 737 Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 Just saw an open for WSIL. The open reminds me of WHAM's old open and the L3's remind me of the old Hearst package. It's actually not that bad for a knockoff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Country News 435 Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 Yep. I guess after cross-town competitor WBBH unveiled their Look F lookalike package, WINK decided they needed something else. They're still using Look F for everything else which makes it look real awkward. You can watch the stream on their homepage and judge for yourself: http://www.winknews.com/. Y'all got it backwards. WBBH is the real Look F, WINK is the phony. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leavellebrett 85 Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 Y'all got it backwards. WBBH is the real Look F, WINK is the phony. They're both Look F. Both from Artworks, but WBBH's just looks really bad. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way the CBS logo animates is just awful. They aught to switch to the CBS O&O package from BH. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ToriElectra 291 Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 This "Blue Helio" thing seems to be like the Bigfoot of these boards- no one can find concrete proof of their existence, and yet rumors swirl about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoadStar 363 Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 This "Blue Helio" thing seems to be like the Bigfoot of these boards- no one can find concrete proof of their existence, and yet rumors swirl about. They're real! I swear! I talked to someone who worked there once... but when I turned away for a second, he disappeared as if he were never there... it was the weirdest thing... I'll find them again someday... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
detroiter313 178 Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 I tend to agree with some of you, this "Blue Helio" stuff is nothing but a wild goosechase. Until somebody (or someone) from the news industry comfirms which company is behind the graphics for WCBS, KIMT, KOIN?, WLEX and others, we'll have to label the company as an "unknown" from this point.

Weeters 1805 Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 Last I heard, Blue Helio was ONE former GO designer and it was set up just to get around some legal issue. Ruth Dial, also formerly of GO, does graphics packages too. The KTSP package that debut in December that people attributed to "Blue Helio" is listed on her Behance profile. I believe she also did WLS' package. I don't know if she was behind "Blue Helio", but from what I was told, nobody is actively operating as "Blue Helio". Nobody's going to operate a design company that has no information available online. I think there are probably a few former GO people out there doing stuff on their own.

Weeters 1805 Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 Ok seriously. I want to lay this to rest once and for all: That clears up who is/was behind the "Blue Helio" name, but there are still many questions left unanswered, like why they have no public presence and why nobody seems to take credit for their stuff (Ruth's Behance profile has the one package that doesn't mention anyone else while the other stuff she has mentions people she worked with, like Cake Studios). And until we get some more answers, it will remain... a mystery. [yt]YQpLNCRIxWA[/yt] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ABC 7 Denver 1552 Posted February 23, 2015 Author Share Posted February 23, 2015 And to further prove my point... https://vimeo.com/user13786065 Actually, that's deceiving... The work in the 2012 Reel are from packages from GO. The second is the open for KTSP, true, but as I suspect Ruth contracted the design to an outside developer, like Giant Octopus did frequently with MadeInBrain. Further evidence, too: https://vimeo.com/bluehelio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webovision 202 Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 "blue helio" is rey and "red creative" is ruth. c'mon folks... not that hard to figure out. they are both capable of making motion graphics on their own or by working together. trying to assign the source of a graphics package to one person is ridiculous and unrealistic. christ...
