Sports Tonight

The screen graphics look fantastic, as does the white light around the screens. But the yellow/orange lighting in the newsroom and on the desk just doesn’t fit the graphics. Newsroom would look better with blue (like Studio 10) and the desk with white.

Really? I disagree, the blue and orange with some white lighting looks great IMO.

I agree. Looks great.

White and blue would look to clinical and cold for sport.

Bad colour theory: The oranges give a bit of warmth, contrasts well with the blue (a complimentary colour) whilst the plasmas which will presumably make up the backdrop during the discussion segments.

Also sports tonight was really in its prime when it was in the newsroom so the set is a nice callback.

I think the desk would be nicer with something like the late news round table to encourage discussion, as opposed to the old melbourne newsdesk. That would also suit the rest of the set.

The only thing I don’t like is how the video wall is right up against the other two screens. It looks out of place.

I think they’re going to throw highlights on that screen during the show and I guess they’re cramming it to fit into the crane shot.

I bet the Ten Sydney atrium still has “Sports Tonight” written on the wall (above where the old set used to be, right-hand side of the 2008-2011 sets)?

That Logie should look nice on the desk :wink:

I hope they incorporate the circular/oval design into the graphics like they did with many previous packages!

edit: I wonder if they’re gonna incorporate footy focus as a segment in the show since Laurie Daley is on the Sydney footy focus.

Says it will be in the press release at the top :wink:

Fans of the show will be pleased to know that the much-loved Play Of The Day will be sticking around, as well as a new segment – Footy Focus – which will dissect the talking points of the nation’s favourite sports.

While watching some old Sports Tonight clips, I can’t get over how sleek the transition from the Sports Tonight to the Ten News brand was in the opener titles, it’d be nice to see the same consistency with the brands again if the upcoming Ten News rebrand eventuates later this month as teased in the Ten Eyewitness News On Air & Presentation discussion:

A rather interesting logo formation on the Promo Endtag as well… :thinking:

Hi CBS, can Ten’s light blue 3D logo please be taken out to pasture?

7 Likes

And please. It’s looking really tired now, hope an On-Air Presentation refresh is due soon, the logo looks better as an outline or a single solid colour, no clue why didn’t just adopt the Ten HD variant of it.

I personally don’t like the Ten HD variant even more. An outline logo would be a brilliant watermark, but not sure about a logo. Definitely a solid colour, or a soft gradient of a single colour if they kept the Ten circle logo.

But, LONG LIVE NUMERICAL 10!

Very much hope that design philosophy rolls out over the Ten News broadcasts soon. Love the clean, HUD look.
