Here we can post all the videos from old CNN, I'm interested the most in the 2001-2006 era, the last one before the music and sets change. Sadly there are not many videos of this on the net. I want to see CNN Today, WNE and BI openings again.
I found this Insight video, I loved this music and the whole look.



... also here's a video of an interview from BI hosted by Richard.




... I'm on a roll tonight, just found another one with Monita and Tony Campion on CNN Today. I love the music in the beginning.




... and another one , again the same man interviews with Andrea Sanke and Tony Campion.




Zain (looking beautiful) interviewing this man.




It looks like there are some videos on YT after all, it's just hard to find them.

Thank you, ginny fan, for finding those. I've been looking for videos like these, but I haven't been able to find them on YouTube, either.

I'm not sure exactly what you want, openings? I have lots of recording. Here's an old BI intro from Hala's last week in London.

Openings are the best couse you get the music, graphics and studio in one, but anything is welcome. Thanks for this great video, I loved the opeining with the clocks. If you have time please post more.

Any excuse to watch old CNN.

I like the way they used to flash the name of the show between headline stories.

Here's an old episode of Spark (parts 2 & 3 can be found in Related videos):


This is a segment of World Business Today. It's not the entire thing, nor does it have an open, but it has some break music and should be enough to bring back old memories:


Rosie in a segment of World News, circa 2003:


I don't know if any of you have seen this, but I didn't come across this until tonight:


Here's Zain presenting World Report, circa 2004:

This is not Zain but Daljit Dhaliwal. :wink:

[ginnyfan]

YWT had so many different musics, jingles and camera shots, it was a joy to watch.

This is not Zain but Daljit Dhaliwal. :wink:

Whoops, I was finding videos for this thread so quickly that I guess I didn't look closely enough!

I must complement Hala for using the correct plural form of stadium --> stadia.

June 2002 World Weather music - I prefer this one to the new ones.

Thank you, Houston, for uploading those.

By the way, if anybody has any more pre-2006 revamp videos of CNN Today, I would love to see them. I loved the old opening music (though the current music is also a favorite of mine.)

[ginnyfan]

The old weather music was so much better.

[Spitfire]

I would love to upload video content but I don't know how to convert VOB files into something Photobucket would accept.

[ginnyfan]

Can someone help Spitfire, it would be awesome to see his videos. Maybe you can try You Tube, just try to upload there, I don't know if they have any format limitations.

[Charles]

I would just try uploading them onto either site and see if they accept them. If that doesn't work, try converting it in QuickTime Pro or iMovie, if you have them.

I still yearn for the old Business International theme
