6 News Australia

Here’s my idea to keep it in the 6 News style, but to give it a little bit of its own identity too

Not even kidding, the ‘Mornings’ above the main lower third was the original plan lol

And we have used that yellow logo for promotions

We’ll test out both ideas!

I like it but with a capital “M”

Good work on the mornings segment today. Good mix of stories. Was there an issue with the lighting?

Happy Birthday Leo, still think it’s pretty wild that you’re only 14 :rofl:

It is easy to forget Leo is that young watching 6 News these days. He speaks and presents better than many seasoned journalists.

Happy birthday Leo :slight_smile: Thanks for making us all feel old.

@Leo_Puglisi6 Had some time this morning so thought I would play around with a mornings opener for you. Excuse my dodgy voice-over, I’m sure you could get someone who sounds much better than moi :joy:

It’s good apart from the lack of capitalisation on the word mornings. But that’s a general gripe I have with marketing people trying to be trendy.

Great idea. We may look into some voiceovers going forward. While I am here - what does everyone think about our new sport segments? Would love to know your thoughts and any feedback you might have. Thanks!

Cool! Love it Darby! But I was under the impression that 6 didn’t do sport?

Noticed a mini relaunch on the graphics tonight! I like it!

Looks good, but now sure why Leo was speeding through the last 1:40 mins or so.

At points I have no idea what he was saying, really need to work on annunciating each word even if you need to quickly get through the weather and closer etc.

Yeah very odd. Also feel free to smile at the end.

Glad you noticed (and enjoyed)! We aimed to keep it fairly similar to what we already had in place, but also - while staying simple - adding more info on screen as what we currently had was a bit squished.

Also the first report from our new Queensland reporter Freya Ware!

Yesterday’s report from Connor was excellent.

6 News is looking more and more polished with every bulletin. Great work by all.

Connor is a great reporter. Agreed @Kevin!

The extension of your left arm across the desk is quite distracting. Not sure if there is a particular reason for this.

Connor is a great asset to the team and he’s stories are written very well showing great use of vocabulary and word usage. Some news presentation on Nine Radio could learn a lot from you. Their writing is apauling especially towards the evening on 2GB.

I assume the extension of your left arm Leo is to control the auto queue or to play the video as there is a bit of a pause between when you finish talking and when the video plays?

Also another thing I noticed on your most recent video is that both Holly and Freya have too much of their hair covering their face which makes it harder for the viewer to connect with the presenter.

I also notice that the closer is much shorter. It’s probably about the right length now. Keep up the good work.
