Honestly? These posts should be flagged and removed. It’s a waste of bandwidth for one, and a waste of time when there has been plenty of good advice posted here about how to make mocks that aren’t ‘some text on a background’.

Totally agree. Countless times advice has been given to users about creating great mocks. You don’t need to spend $$$$ on Photoshop. Free alternatives such as getpaint.net exist which (while not as advanced as PS) are still quite flexible.

Another good option is Gimp which is another free alternative to PS

WIN News post-July 1:
Although not 100% perfect, hopefully my attempt (particularly titlecard wise) is reasonably close to what we might actually see on TV in a few months time. Of course I just couldn’t resist including a Nine News watermark coverup!

Agreed. The Guide to Mocking has been suggested several times, and advice has always been given. If people aren’t willing to improve, their access to post mocks in this thread should be revoked until they can prove that they can improve their quality and skills.

It turns out this may be exactly what we see, if TV Blackbox’s report is correct (see WIN Television - #6898 by KevinPerry)
PS: But I’d expect no cover-ups of 9News branding.

It wouldn’t be the first time WIN has used coverups on Nine News though, would it? I have pretty distinct memories of WIN coverups around 2011.
Sorry, I came up with this reply in a hurry. s/
WIN was still using coverups on 9News on 30 June 2016.
I just meant that if the recent TV Blackbox article link posted is correct, the channels will have Nine branding instead of WIN’s traditional rebranding & coverups.

I can remember watching a VHS in high school that had been taped off WIN soon after aggregation, so no watermark. The logo faded in for about 15 seconds about halfway through each program block, faded out, then did the same after the next break. That reminds me of what you’re suggesting, I’d be all for it.

WIN didn’t have a watermark until the mid 90s around 1995 1996. In the early days they didn’t cover up Nine logos at all. The watermark was small WIN logo with the dots in the top right.

I find this new look of Sunrise pretty good.
The sponsor billboard is reminiscent to the Nine sponsor billboard package (2015-present).
