From Klein&, some snippets of their animation work, followed by completed spots including, The Movies, News Opens, Evening Magazine Open and news promotion. The last spot is the terrific 1:00 Direct Connection for KYW!
@@gidzmobug2323 The photo-montages are stop-motion; the graphic effects (the shining, streaking, etc.) are slit-scan shot with something like a motion-control track or an Oxberry.

GAWWWWWWH...These are BEAUTIFUL. I may have been too little to remember these particular graphics clearly, but Klein and Calico were responsible for a look that made my 3, 4-year-old mind say, "WHOA....television!" They must have left some indelible stamp on my mind.
2:57 The original Evening Magazine intro as introduced on KPIX San Francisco in 1976, also used on the other Westinghouse stations. AKA PM Magazine in some other cities.
I see both KYW Philadelphia and WKYC in Cleveland used 3 FOR ALL, and this was during their NBC days. The only difference: WKYC was an NBC O&O, and KYW was owned by Group W/Westinghouse (now part of the CBS-owned family)
They’re not custom workstations. They’re Oxberry machines. Oxberrys were used to create a computer graphic effect on hand drawn cel animation in the early 80s.

It was entitled "Evening: The Monday/Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday/Friday (MTWTF) Show" at the beginning on August 9, 1976 in San Francisco for KPIX-TV. Within 2 or 3 years, the program was retitled as Evening Magazine, & subsequently went on a national rollout of it (which those TV stations that weren't owned by Westinghouse Broadcasting [aka Group W] such as KPIX-TV was, this program was known as PM Magazine, except for KING-TV in Seattle & WOR-TV {WWOR-TV since April 1987} in New York, which they retained the former title.
