    This video probably has the best, cleanest, versions of all of the early tv computer animations that I have seen in all of TH-cam!

    2:27 This “NBC Monday Night at the Movies” intro from 1985 reminds me of my early childhood!!

      And the 720p has it really shining through, exactly as it was in '85!

    That's really good. At this time, PDI transitioned from a DEC VAX 11/780 minicomputer to a Ridge32 supercomputer.

    They did the movie bumpers for WOR 9 in New York AND the Forty Years of Fine Tuning graphics for WNEW in New York! So awesome to see where they came from!

      This came from a 1 inch Type C open reel machine, the VHS quality isn't even close by a longshot. This is true broadcast quality.

      ​@@KylesDigitalLab That explains a lot ! However, seeing the master quality here, its incredible how much loss there is between broadcast and tape

    the 5:15 one is a brazilian logo of a tv show called fantastic / fantástico and it was broadcasted only on sunday, it would show a lot of news and funny horsies talking in portuguese about brazilian football teams.

    Way before DreamWorks Animation acquired Pacific Data Images several years later. DreamWorks Animation is currently a division of NBCUniversal whose companies include NBC and Universal Studios.

    Kinda insane to think about that this was the same agency/company that got purchased by Dreamworks later on only for it to go defunct in 2015. Really interesting that what was later on a division of Dreamworks used to make a whole lot of stuff for networks or any other type of brand in the 80s.

      That is the first station ID when its callsign changed in March 19, 1984 from KBTV to KUSA (-TV). And on September 10, 1995, KUSA changed affiliations from ABC to NBC.
