Welcome to part 1/4 of my full news opens, closes & promos montage that I recorded from my hometown market of Central Indiana/Indianapolis. This is something I've been wanting to do for a while, and here you guys go. We first begin off with WRTV, in which they're the ABC affiliate for the market as well being the longtime station that's owned by The E.W. Scripps Company.
Here's a montage of all news opens, closes & promos that aired throughout their newscast time slots during the day, recorded on Friday, March 4th, 2022. All recordings that are presented are taken over-the-air via an antenna using a tuner. I apologize for the somewhat low audio quality bitrate as that's how the broadcast quality was presented.
Everything is Scripps ingredient standardized based, so I don't need to explain it's specs, other than the voiceover being a switch to an unknown guy, from David Kaye (you can still hear him on some certain promos and legal ID bumps). I haven't heard him before at all in any other market, and I'm just gonna considered he's probably local. Oh, and don't forget about the slight update to the ABC logo on their logo.
