National Nine News 2004-2005

This graphics package is probably one of Media Spy’s favourite packages from Nine. The 2004 package featured basic rectangle supers and OTS graphics - but were later updated to feature curves. Perth and Adelaide used slightly different graphics as they were not network owned and operated stations.

The weather graphics from 2004-2005 were the best graphics Nine News even had. Not sure why they were dumped a couple of years later.

Something like this would be fantastic if remade for 2019 (but without the gimmicky zoom effects :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: ).
The VO they used for this era was fantastic too.

National Nine Morning News with Georgie Gardner (Ross Greenwood for the finance segment) 29/7/2004

National Nine News looked set for another dominant year when they won the first week of the 2005 ratings season. But it was another Nine identity that brought about their downfall on a rival network in the country’s biggest market…

I remember this look from the days when Nine used to own Prime NZ. We used to get the Today Show and National Nine Morning news plus late night ACA. It showed what NZ TV was lacking at the time.

Loved this look! Still think the original package that debuted in Jan 2004 (before the tweaks were made) is the best they’ve ever had.
