Many morning shows have specialized intros, some are parodies of TV theme songs/show tunes...are those made in-house or are they getting through a service?
Thanks.

A lot are made inhouse, if a station is fortunate enough to have a talented imaging director. Others are "cut and paste" types of things, where a shell is produced by through a service (like chase cuts, frostbytes, etc) and the stations local info (show name, calls, positioner, etc) are placed within the shell using that stations voiceover God or Goddess.

Sometimes stations will pay (and it's not cheap) for parodies, etc to be made just for them by an outside service...same with jingles...not cheap...
 
> TMC of Dallas does a great job of Morning Show packages. Parodies of the "Jefferson's" TV Themes and the like. They're wonderfully done, but burn
fast. If they're used sparingly, they're a neat little 'ornament' on the broadcast.
 
damon scott from 965 tic in hartford makes his own parody intros for his afternoon show... very talented guy. i think he does them for other people too (he has his own production company in addition to being wtic's creative services dir).
