Views: 2888

Here's some neat behind-the-scenes stuff - some working production elements for what appear to be commercial bumpers for the Six O'Clock Movie on WFLD Channel 32. You can see this is essentially the same graphics as the opening we saw recently for the Six O'Clock Movie.

First we hear some of the bumper music, "K-Jee" by MFSB again ("bumper beds", says the box). Next some color bars, and then it looks li...

WFLD Channel 32 - Super Cartoon Sunrise - "Popeye" (Bumper, 1984)

Views: 1116

Here is a bumper for Popeye on Super Cartoon Sunrise on WFLD Channel 32.

Voiceover by Jeff Lupetin - "Now back to Popeye..."

Couple interesting things about this bumper - First of all, for some reason they use the old style WFLD 32 logo from the Field days. This is different from the other ones. Secondly, the animation is more pronounced in this version - look at the "sparkle" effects on the 32 logo and around the clock box. This wasn't seen in the other bump...

WFLD Channel 32 - Creature Feature - "The Black Cat" (Bumper Excerpt, 1979)

Blink, and you'll miss it! (especially this time)

Here is an extreme rarity - a painfully small microblip from a commercial break bumper of WFLD Channel 32's Creature Feature program. This was the program that was replaced by Son of Svengoolie in Summer of 1979. That would date this clip to at least before that time.

If you pause the video at about 10 seconds in you can see a fairly clear frame of the commercial bumper. In this one you can again make out a sm...
