Description: 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 like they do some switcher effects to create a few bumper segments. Finally, at the end we hear some strange sneezing sound effects - probably the person who created this was just goofing around a bit. :-)
This was likely created by the person who was putting the opening together, veteran WFLD director Don Shannon.
This seems to date from the same era as the opening, June of 1978.
