NEOMatrix 1299 Posted November 12, 2016 Share Posted November 12, 2016 These Tegna sets are just so generic looking. I pray that WKYC at least gets a set that's worthy of replacing that current set, which dates all the way back to 2001.

Let me guess... the same set since moving into the new 'digital broadcast center' Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/15372-khou-getting-a-new-set/page/2/#findComment-162449 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daybreak 288 Posted November 12, 2016 Share Posted November 12, 2016 WLTX in Columbia SC has the best Tegna set so far this year. It looks a whole lot better and far less generic than the other sets.

TVCSD 3 Posted November 14, 2016 Share Posted November 14, 2016 Yikes!!! Same crap set they did in Seattle. The main desk has a folding table feel to it, and what's with the large circular riser out front? I'm sure that presents a shot blocking nightmare to the directors. LMAO!

bhratbrat 437 Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 Out of the past twenty years of KHOU sets..this is horrendous. And they have had some great sets from MBD and even FX Group. This is a downgrade for them Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/15372-khou-getting-a-new-set/page/2/#findComment-165909 Share on other sites More sharing options...
A3N 1002 Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 I don't think it's horrendous, it's bland, that's for sure. That being said, they could really improve on the blandness by adding some logos on the set. Print some durantrans with the CBS eye, or KHOU11, something that will take away from the empty feeling these Tegna sets exhibit.

sfomspphl 490 Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 The 2 shot and the standup for the 2 anchors look fine. But the rest is just a mess - cramped, no depth. The 4 shot is cable access grade and I can't see any evidence of branding on the set.

MorningNews 1448 Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 This set is awful, plain and simple. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/15372-khou-getting-a-new-set/page/2/#findComment-166214 Share on other sites More sharing options...
C Block 1566 Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 They just shrunk KUSA's set. The cool thing about KUSA's desk is that they can seat guests on the front of it and make it feel like a roundtable. That effect is lost with such a smaller desk, and it just looks cramped. What happened to Jack Morton? Back in the day, people would kill for a set from them.

24994J 5577 Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 What happened to Jack Morton? Back in the day, people would kill for a set from them. In the last year or so, Jack Morton's done competent work with WLS, WNBC and KNSD, just to name a few. Tegna wants what Tegna wants, and even the best designers are severely limited when the client wants certain elements like the "roundtable", etc, AND for it to be done on the cheap.

C Block 1566 Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 Ah, good point. I still think KARE and KUSA's sets turned out pretty well, but the others, not so much.
