Sky News: Presentation Discussion

I love the new graphics! They now have the JRL background!

Nice new graphics but the graphic above the ticker changes a bit too fast for me, By the time you have chosen 1 of the 3 to read and read which business or market its for its already changed to show whether its + or - before you have chance to read the current share price or currency value, Then after a few seconds it changes to something completely different, Might just be me but I gave up trying to read it after a while because it changed too quick, animates nicely though and I like the flying round the Gherkin background

I liked the live market data with the pulsating graphic and the text is much smaller on the individual slides than it was previously

Does anyone have any caps of the HD side panels Sam mentioned?

It's a bit odd that they used blue instead of green for markets "up" but it seems to fit better to the red and blue skynews colours.

SD biz graphics.

The best part is missing here!

Only caught the end but the HD version looks very different.

Can't do caps, but here's a photo of the HD channel.

They look superb on the HD channel, really really slick.

Absolutely love the new business graphics. At last I can see the Irish Stock Exchange (ISEQ)! Great that the bond yields are there aswell as they are not normally on any business bulletins. The graphics are as good as the content which is really good. All round top marks for sky here.

If that image linked above is for HD only, then Sky really do have an excellent reason for people to get HD, for Business coverage alone. It looks superb.

Sky News Australia has a business news channel. From the direction I have seen Sky going over the last few years, which these tweeks add to, I wouldn't be surprised if they have a UK business channel planned for the future.

From what I've seen of the screenshots (missed the live bulletin), the new graphics look very good. I wonder where Sky is planning on going from here?
