March 10, 2008UPN Indiana
The station adopted the "UPN Indiana" branding in September 2003, dropping on-air references to its channel 23 allocation; this was done partly due to the fact that most cable providers in the Indianapolis market carry WNDY on channel 10. A few weeks before the start of the 2003-04 television season, WNDY began displaying a countdown of days until it rebranded as "UPN Indy". It was reported that the "UPN Indy" moniker was ditched in favor of "UPN Indiana" at the last minute to appeal to the larger audience across the state rather than just those living in the Indianapolis area, along with the fact that the Indianapolis Motor Speedway had stopped allowing the station to use the trademarked word "Indy". On February 10, 2005, Paramount sold WNDY and Columbus sister station WWHO to the LIN TV Corporation, owners of then-CBS affiliate WISH-TV (channel 8) and 24-hour weather service WIIH-CA (channel 17, now a fill-in translator for WISH), for $85 million; the station rebranded as "WNDY UPN 23" that July.

On-air graphics
I created all the on-air and off air graphics and videos for the station. Everything that wasn't sent from the UPN network. I made the graphics for our own shows like Big Dumb Movie, Steel Horse and our show about the Colts--the Horseshoe Huddle hosted by Jimmy “Mad Dog” Matis. Also designed interstitials, PSAs, and community calendars.
POPs and promotional items
The other aspect to this position was working closely with the sales team to make up promotional printed items like brochures, POPs for giveaways, and partner related marketing materials.
