Random Mocks

I think ‘inspired by’ and ‘blatantly ripping off’ are two different things.

@OnAir @nztv @TV4 @theGradyConnell @NaruTVMock @medianz Yesterday (31 October) was my birthday and here’s a parody of Paddy Gower Has Issues, a current affairs/comedy programme that screens on Three, although it’s only a mock design.

That parody was sent to me on social media by my good pal Dan Lake (aka Dan News), who is based in Sydney.

I preferred the old ABC ONE, ABC TWO, ABC THREE look than ABC, ABC Plus/Kids and ABC Me with multichanneling

I recently made up my own late night music video show on Channel 9 that’s sorta like Rage and MTV called The Plug with James Elmer (former ABC ME presenter) on the Mock Schedules thread. so I wonder if there is a logo for my late night music program.

Sounds like an interesting concept.

Any basic ideas of how you would like it to look (colours, font style, symbols, caps/no caps, etc)?

I would like it to make it look red, look ITC Avant Garde, look cooler with a headphone jack icon, and make it look uppercase.

What if the old (and NZ’s own) Mitre 10 logo had brought back to life but with a ‘modern image’ feel compared to the current one (in real life)?

“Good on you, Mitre 10 - together we’ve done it again!”

Good work Paddy!

The M reminds me of the old Triple M radio logo - although maybe that’s just the style of the time period?

Been a while since I posted anything on here, so here’s some random news stuff reheated:
BBC News
Future Earth
The new Future Earth programme looks more effort paid when it’s using the Chameleon BBC Earth graphics…


And an experiment that went nowhere, based on the refreshed BBC Sport endcap on generic matches (courtesy to RhysJR on Pres Cafe). Yes, I know the background didn’t age well…


US Television

Experimenting with some graphics for My53 News at 8/KMSG-LD in Fresno, after seeing discussions on the one-man-band newscast heated up again on TVNewsTalk. The colour scheme aligns closer to their opener, and the supers are more compact that looks better when without a ticker.

This one, from early 2022, was just done in disbelief, after seeing folks on TV Live Forum praising WSVN Florida’s over-the-top graphics and how they’ll be retained till the end of time. It’s slightly flatter than what they’re using (and more orange-red for the Circle 7 symbol), but I retained some reflective effects on the supers.

What if The Breeze had a new name and new branding after all these years?

Open Air would be a new name for The Breeze and its mock logo and colours would be identical to that of Sky’s free-to-air television channel, Sky Open (in real life; see below).

Thought I’d have a go at trying to better adapt the 1998 variant of the ABC News 1985-2005 theme with tweaks to the current opener…
