Lower Thirds
« on: November 17, 2007, 03:04:12 PM »
I am currently working on a project that I started last week on designing the current lower thirds in Microsoft PowerPoint 2003. Yes I do know Tyler planned on doing this as well and he is still welcome to make his own, but I also wanted to do this as something to do when I have nothing else on the agenda.

After I make the regular one and two-line graphics, I might go into other lower third graphics too, such as the mini lower thirds and storm alert ones. BTW, I need to know if there are any free fonts that are at least similar to the logos for Weekend Outlook, Weather Center, and PM Edition. If you know any, please drop me a message. Thanks.

Anyway, I started with the easiest logos to make first, so here they are:

I don't see any pictures yet. Actually I was planning to make a picture of my Satellite with the 4 cities commute, but it does not have the black bar

They load up fine for me. Nice job! :thumbsup:

EDIT: I just realized that since those pictures are linked to TWC Classics (they were uploaded on the TWCC forums and Mike just linked to them from here), you have to be logged in to TWC Classics in order to view the pictures.

Oops! I was thinking guests could view images uploaded to the TWCC forum even though they can't view messages in there. Anyway I re-uploaded the images onto ImageShack and edited my post. Can you guys see them now?

Long overdue are the rest of them, except for A&B, which should be coming soon. Enjoy! You guys are free to use these but please do not redistribute them.

I also still intend on making the mini lower thirds, which also should be done soon.
