Â Said town lies in the market of the red-headed stepchild of the CBS O&O's. Mercifully they also get WLNS on cable and off-air so they can have access to an actual CBS station and not a mere pass-through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rkolsen 1675 Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 Who designed WJZ's current set? I think there as atleast another iteration of it out there - I want to say WCCO?

C Block 1487 Posted July 8, 2016 Author Share Posted July 8, 2016 Who designed WJZ's current set? I think there as atleast another iteration of it out there - I want to say WCCO? Figured were discussing changes that this would be a quick place to get an answer rather than a request thread.  I believe it was a firm called pencilogic. They designed KMGH's 1998 set, which was pretty similar to WJZ's set, just with a mountain lodge feel:   If my memory is correct, pencilogic was based in Denver, as they did a lot of Denver sets — KWGN's 2000 multiset, KCNC's faux-control room mountain set, and the mini weather, news, and tech sets in KUSA's newsroom. A mirror of their old website here has a client list which shows, among others, WJZ, WBZ, WBBM, and KPIX. I'm pretty sure WCCO's late 90s/early 2000s set was a Devlin creation, though seeing that pencilogic and Devlin were based in the same state, and many pencilogic clients went on to beome Devlin clients, there's probably some sort of connection there.

mrschimpf 2050 Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 It looks like WDJT is taking 2.0 of the graphics, though it differs in some ways; the yellow accent line is to the left of the "58" logo at all times, it's still lined up for 4:3, and they seem to be in a finessing period right now; the ticker and time/temp is in Tahoma as it has been for the first couple weeks WDJT has their new graphics (and it's the first time they've had a ticker in a couple years since they got the 1.0 version). The afternoon block went L3'less so I couldn't really see most of the package as it should be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have actual banners again without the hideous compass/radar thing swirling in the corner... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qunewsguy 376 Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 According to WDJT's website, the only thing that changed was the weather branding and map headers. All the videos (including from Monday's 11pm show) have the old look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MilwaukeeMan 4 Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 It seems they are adding in house elements based around the 2.0 graphics. The L3 transitions look cheap and choppy, and they still only use three cute of overture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rusty Muck 4159 Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 Sorry for bumping this up, but... this is Seymour but it's most likely since all the stations there are O&O stations, and KCBS/KCAL are moving there tower a little more up north, because of their new Doppler radar systems. So yeah I guess they are buying it. Only KSND is an O&O. KFMB, XETV, KSWB, etc. are all affiliates. And while KFMB's radio sisters were de facto merged into Local Media San Diego's three Tijuana FMs, they were never sold and are still owned/operated by Midwest TV. Â KCBS-KCAL's tower relocation should have no bearing on what happens in San Diego. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mardek1995 200 Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 Sorry for bumping this thread but, I heard from earlier into this thread that the rest of the CBS O&Os will launch the new graphics this September, more than likely after the Grammys, but are there any that'll launch them earlier than that?
