Denver’s CW goes with state-inspired look for upgrade

Tribune’s KWGN-TV debuted a new logo and graphics package this week to coincide with the launch of an 11 p.m. newscast.

The logo ditches the former green palette and arcing design in favor of a Colorado-inspired look that features the colors of the state’s flag. The design also features depth through 3D and gradients, while the previous focused on a flat design style.

Other in-show graphics have also been updated to match the look and feature glossy frames for text with the new colors.
