New look Sunrise video

DanNews put together this great recap of the new-look Sunrise:



I thought the new look for TV3s Sunrise was really good - a huge improvement and very refreshing.


The more I see that logo, the more it is growing on me; and the new music seems perfect for morning television! The news ticker across the bottom of the screen also looks a lot better.

Well done guys!

Sunrises new logo revealed

NewThe new logo for TV3 morning show Sunrise has been revealed, and it is already receiving mixed reviews.

One Facebook user writes: Theres no colour hear. [sic] I dont find it engaging or representative of the character of the show. I think it looks a bit old fashioned.

I am not so sure about it either, but I think perhaps I will reserve judgement until I see it motion with the new music.

Sunrise will launch a new look on Monday, featuring a new studio backdrop, new theme music and new on-screen graphics to go with this new logo. Look out for the television promos over the weekend.

The changes are said to give the show a very different look, and will include new on-screen graphics, new music and a new logo.

The presenter line-up will be remaining the same, and it is unlikely that the set will change - perhaps just the graphics on the back screen.

Look out for exciting new promos over the weekend!

Michael Jackson memorial live on both TV One and TV3

TVNZ,New Zealanders will have their choice this Wednesday morning, with both TV One and TV3 planning to provide live coverage of Michael Jacksons memorial service from 5.00am.

TVNZs broadcast of the Los Angeles memorial will be hosted by Breakfast presenters Ali Mau and Paul Henry, and will run through until 9.00am. TV3s will likely be introduced by Sunrise hosts Carly Flynn and Oliver Driver. Although one does hope the networks will not have hosts speaking too much throughout the service.

E! Entertainment Channel will also provide live coverage of the Michael Jackson memorial on Sky channel 11.

The service will be held at the Staples Center in Los Angles, and 11,000 free tickets were given out to fans. A further 6,500 tickets were available for fans watch the service live on the big screen across the road at the Nokia Theatre.

Jackson family spokesperson Ken Sunshine said that everything about the memorial has to do with accommodating as many fans as possible. It is all about the fans.
