Members Planet Soap Posted March 30, 2023 Members Share Posted March 30, 2023 (edited) Have the actors portaits in the style of the 70s/early 80s sketch, transform into the cast shots mimicking the 90s style.

Members Liberty City Posted March 30, 2023 Members Share Posted March 30, 2023 Sharon Case, Eileen Davidson, Amelia Heinle, Elizabeth Hendrickson, Melissa Ordway & Melody Thomas Scott so far seem to have re-shot their opening post-#YR50 cast photo and around the time of the gala filming. And I'm feeling as if it is possible both Lauralee Bell, Courtney Hope & Kate Linder's opening shots might have been a re-shoot, as well. I fully think if they had used the typeface from the 2003 opening it would improve it!

Members AMCHistory Posted March 31, 2023 Members Share Posted March 31, 2023 The font change helps a lot. I still don’t understand the skyline and what it has to do with a small Midwest town that probably has one sky scraper. Chance and Amanda premieres today. Gorgeous. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaytimeFan Posted March 31, 2023 Members Share Posted March 31, 2023 The font change is a huge, huge improvement. That cannot be difficult to fix and Y&R should do so immediately. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ranger1rg Posted March 31, 2023 Members Share Posted March 31, 2023 I think that font change is much too small. I prefer the current, new font…perhaps a little smaller. And again, I think the skyline is fine. Overall, the new open is a success in my eyes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Broderick Posted March 31, 2023 Members Share Posted March 31, 2023 I agree about the font. Never cared for those tiny names with no capital letters. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AMCHistory Posted April 1, 2023 Members Share Posted April 1, 2023 I am loving that cast members are getting more than once pose. They are not copy and pasting between opening versions. I especially love Amelia Heinle’s hair flip today. Let’s see how long this lasts. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Paul Raven Posted April 4, 2023 Members Share Posted April 4, 2023 Those drawings are horrendous! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members j swift Posted April 4, 2023 Members Share Posted April 4, 2023 I can appreciate the effort, but why do all of the actors have baggy eyes? Sandy Dvore highlighted the actor's best features. This looks like a group of people who need a nap. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Darn Posted April 4, 2023 Members Share Posted April 4, 2023 Because they're not actual drawings, it's a photoshop action that turns an image into a sketched drawing. Good idea, poor execution. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ranger1rg Posted April 4, 2023 Members Share Posted April 4, 2023 Whatever it is, it's a mess. If they put something like that on our screens, we would SCREAM. The new open looks better every day. Yep. After a week+ living with the new open, I call it a success. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members detroitpiston Posted April 20, 2023 Members Share Posted April 20, 2023 (edited) I despise the color scheme (the white red and gold used for the new mid show bumpers is much better) and the font choice for the actor names is horrible but I love everything else about it. I noticed as they’ve been modifying it daily the shot choices for the actors have gotten more dramatic and sleek which is good. I also like how they fade the actors in and out instead of just throwing a bunch of random shots at the screen like the last opening. Makes me miss editing Edited April 20, 2023 by detroitpiston 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AMCHistory Posted April 25, 2023 Members Share Posted April 25, 2023 I do love this nuance! I hope the continue it with the updates. It keeps the opening feeling so fresh. There are a few actors I hope we see alternative shots for: - Esther: She looks so serious in hers. Esther deserves to smile. - Jill: The camera angle is awful for her. And we know from 30 years of openings Jill knows how to pose! Her shot in the last opening was one of the best. - Jack: The straight on pose does not scream Jack for me. He always does that side pose with a perfect part. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
