Obviously its been a while since this happened, but nine (and later 10) would always give WIN the graphics packages to use for their Tasmanian bulletin, and they never had any issues with the licencing, or the systems, aside from a few fonts, back then so I’m sure they could still do that.
Also, I know we all love to joke about WIN being dinosaurs, but I’m sure that these days, they use modern systems that could pretty easily replicate the nine GFX if they wanted.
Surely someone from either Agenda’s or Nine’s team could have provided WIN with a copy of the project files, then made whatever adjustments were necessary to ensure they were compatible with WIN’s systems and software. That would have allowed WIN to continue tailoring the package to its own requirements—for example, retaining the dotless version while the NBN and NTD variants keep “Dotty.”
WIN still could have handled its own themes, branding and other customisations just as it always has, but the overall presentation would have felt far more cohesive. It would have given the news bulletins a greater sense of standardisation across the network and its affiliate while still allowing each market to retain its own identity where needed.
Been a while since I’ve used After Effects but usually now systems are standardised off international standards, even if camera and lighting equipment were old then open source software such as CasparCG could be used, of which would be compatible with the file standards used these days… that’s if WIN are doing the edit ‘live’ and just cutting out bloopers and ad breaks for ingest rather than pre recording every segment and having to glue each one together, which just wastes more time…
I Need to know why am they are only animated in. They then just fade out after. It’s like they forgot to change the animation effect in Adobe Express (I know that’s not what they use but that’s kinda how amateur this seems)
I thought that pretty much is what they do these days. Then just have a playlist of intro, story, intro, story etc - which explains how they sometimes screw*** it up..
