SO NICE!
-
Wow. That looks real. :clap:

Here is what I've been working on lately. Since TWC decommissioned the Intellistar's, tons have popped up on ebay. Since I am considering buying one soon, I've made some graphics I would put on the unit. Unfortunately the hard drives are wiped out or missing, so I would have to write my own STAR program. However the unit would come with the necessary graphic cards and SDI video inputs and outputs so that's a positive!

What if The Weather Network copied TWC's Logo back in 2005? Here's what it would look like
OR What about 1996?

Your artwork overall is fantastic! I really like the remakes of the banners from 2004, about as close to perfection as you can get. :thumbsup:

Thanks! I've wanted to do this since 2009 but lacked the computer and photoshop/after effects skills. Now it comes so easy to me.
-
Looks even better! Good job.
-
Here's my revamped version of the 2005-2008 Title Bar. Added blurs and used smudge tool to distort the light on the right corner. Used Photoshop CS2 like TWC would've in 2005.
-
Slightly modified
-
Your Weather Today like Template created in AE CS2. Just testing out the old program to see how it functions.

Two concepts I made.
Also just acquired VizRT software so I'll be working on those Viz Graphics TWC had in 2008 and 2009. Still got to learn how the interface works. Way different than After Effects
Both title bars made in Photoshop
-
Working around Viz Artist. Still cool I managed to get this software
-
some of tohse should be on natinol forcast and emergency feed
-
CC Screen demo

Wow these look great!

Better Improved version from the Wunderground API radar feed.
EDIT:
Test Satellite product.

Concept of how I think TWC should look. I created everything except the radar images, icons, and TWC logos.
-
This is the LDL format
-
The Revamped CC Screen
-
Morning Rush Concept!
-
Working on a new Weather Center Live Open. So far the Background is being worked on. Everything was made in After Effects except the flares and dots, which are png files created in Photoshop and the map which was downloaded from the internet.
-
First render of the new Weather Center Live design. Still making slight adjustments but overall I think it's really coming together.
-
New Weather Graphics software I'm testing out. It's a little choppy but I think has great potential. No it's not TruVu Max but sure as hell looks like it.

-
Some Weather Maps that I exported from the software.
-
These look great. What software are you using for the weather data?
-
The Low temps for tonight from the GFS model.
To answer Tyler's question: I'm using Weather Studio V3 or "WSV3", and got the TruVu Max design from Almany Designs, which have the base maps and Color tables that Max uses and also some TWC color pallets like the 2M Temp I just posted.
Edit:
I also have several video captures of the Radar and Storm tracking capabilities on my Youtube channel.
Here's my attempt at recreating the 2013-2015 emergency feed.

-
Here's a screenshot of the software
-
Managed to get the temps to not show on the ocean. Still limiting as certain views cut off the terrain.
-
So you can customize that software to display graphics however you want? That's pretty sweet. I've always wanted something like that. Too bad it's only for Windows.
-
Pretty much almost everything is customizable in this software. Too bad it doesn't have a presentation function. I've tested the 3d camera function and I think it looks great, just doesn't handle the CPU management very well hence the stutters in the transitions. I'm running this on a core i7 processor and a Nvidia Gtx1050 Ti graphics card. It should run fine. Most games on this computer run between 30-60fps.
Here's a video of the Camera fly capabilities.

I've been messing with Shapefiles to create the TWC style Precip and Thunderstorm graphics. So far so good!

Globe scene I created. This is type of map is usually found on weather.com
-
Thunderstorm outlook with Titan BaseMaps
-
It looks sort of like either NBC Weather Plus or Weatherscan. I think they look like both as they look. But anyways, nice fan art! :clap:
-
Classic TWC Maps!
-
Very good. I like it!
-
Something I've been working on. Very complicated process to get this done.

Nice maps! You did a great job!

Something I made because I was bored.
Direct comparison between the 2006 and 2007 TWC icons.
-
Exported Rad/Sat image from my Weather Graphics software. The Nostalgia is REAL!!
Edit: I also added exported two other images with different base maps.
The 2nd one gives a 1999-2004 TWC SLF look.
The 3rd is with a stock WSI ShowFx base map.
-
Testing On Air Weather Graphics.
-
Been working on creating TruVu Max graphics and I'd say this is (Almost) just as good as having a real TruVu Max system. The Program is Weather Studio and I highly customized it with graphics and base maps that I created myself and is not readily available by default.
-
Testing more graphics. If you watched TWC in Early 2013 you'd probably seen this before

My Next Endeavor I've been Working On.
-
XL Radar that I quickly put together.

Nice job on the banners and the XL! I've always wanted to see a simulation of older style TWC maps with live weather data.

I've taken a look at my past TWC SLF emulation videos and I'm quite surprised how well my graphic design skills have become. The first image from June 22, 2017 looks like *poop* and my most recent August 10, 2017 capture looks pretty distinguishable from the real thing.
-
My attempt to make Weather Studio look like TruVu Max. I think I nailed it 99.999%

Beautiful classic style weather.com maps. I miss those old weather.com maps back in the early 2000s.
-
Created this because I was bored
-
With the Intellistar LDL I just made
-
Revamped with both the National and Local feeds.
-
I've just completed recreating the HD LDL and 2011-2012 Lower 3rds. Everything is recreated except the icons and the image with Crystal Egger.
-
Compilation of all my recreated HD Graphics. Nothing on screen is Stock images. All recreations.
-
Beautiful job on the split screen and HD graphics recreations! :clap: I even like that mock control room video feed screen.
-
If I were in charge at TWC, this is what Hurricane Irma coverage would've looked like!
-
Here more graphics I created. I posted the blank WxMap Background in case anyone wants to use it.
I've also updated the HD LDL and now it's finally complete.
-
I have no words, those graphics are incredible! It looks like a lot of work was put into that, and it really paid off since that looks so close to the graphics at the time. Fantastic job!

Thanks! It actually only took about an hour to create the Day Planner Background and the HD LDL took about an hour as well. If you know what your doing it doesn't take that long to my surprise.
-
That looks great! I couldn't have said it any better.
-
In case anyone is interested I am currently working on one of my life long desires ever since 4th grade and attempt to create the HD SLF Emulator! This could go two ways, create the whole thing with Photoshop and Viz Artist (which TWC did) or go the Cinema 4d and After Effects route. Both will have the same graphical outcome. I am a little hesitant with Viz Artist because that entails a yearly license renewal fee and my license expires in a few months and I'm unsure if I'll renew. But if I go Cinema 4d and After Effects, no weather data can be imported at all and can not transfer into Viz if I decide to renew. Basically I'll have to restart all over. In the meantime I've posted a screen shot of my work so far.

Here's a sloppy demo of my recreation the HD Intellistar concept created by Tylert120 on Youtube.

Here's a demo of my re creation of the 2008-2011 SLF graphics as we approach the 10 year anniversary of the debut of those graphics! They're not done yet but I have a good head start. May 21, 2008.

Working on more HD Weather Graphics. This particular graphic is in SD, which would probably be featured on weather.com at the time. The dates in the graphics are not guaranteed accurate as this was quickly put together and is based on what I remember.
-
With WeatherScan to be discontinued, I have decided to plan a new design scheme to add to a unit if I ever got my hands on one.
-
Nice new look for Weatherscan! :clap: It's a darn shame they are planning on discontinuing Weatherscan soon (even TWC never did bother to update Weatherscan's overall look and feel all these years since September 2005 and the icons since March 2010). Either way, nice beautiful new look.
-
All of the graphics are looking good. Just out of curiosity, how much is Viz?
-

What I would give to see Weatherscan look like that...but you BETTER leave the music alone :P
Also, and I'm just nitpicking here, but why not make the black ticker fit in w/ the rest of the graphics? It seemed a bit out of place there. Otherwise, I'm blown away. Great job. :biggrin:
-
Thanks! That was just a beta and plan to add and adjust graphics accordingly. What I would do is just add new tracks to weatherscan or create a playlist based on daypart. Trust me I wouldn't get rid of the current tracks.
-
Second Demo showing the CC Screen. I'm not a fan of it as it was pretty much just slapped on there but the design scheme is what I'm aiming for. The 5 day forecast boxes were extended so no gaps are seen.
-
More WSI Basemaps I created
-
I would go for a darker green.
-
Revamped Title bar that TWC used from 2005-2008.
-
I revamped the 2003-2005 bar and show a side by side comparison between September 2005 graphics and November 2005.
