Description:
|
This is the original Frank Gari's Eyewitness
News theme opening credits clip . It doesn't include the bumper
(see here), making this a 'clean open.' As you can hear, the Eyewitness
News theme uses big brass instruments, such as trumpets, that calls your
attention to what is coming up on the news. |

This is an alternate Frank Gari's Eyewitness

Description:
|
This is the official abc7 Eyewitness News bumper.
It is attached to the 'clean open' for all newscast intros. Also,
this is the clip used for EWN Updates, newscast bumpers, and played for
Special Reports from abc7. It has a fast paced beat that sounds
urgent. abc7 Eyewitness News has used this same clip for many
years, and personally I don't think it will ever get old. |

This is an exclusive Eyewitness
News promo file from ABC7LA. Used at WABC-TV Eyewitness
News in 1998, it displays how EWN is #1 in coverage and how it can be
everywhere you want it to be. Even though this was used @
KABC-TV's sister station in New York, I believe it can also be of use
here in Los Angeles--even in 2003. Remember, you heard it here
first at ABC7LA. |
