RealNews18 227 Posted April 1, 2019 Posted April 1, 2019 Is there any update on timeline or any sneak peaks? Lol
IceManNYR 242 Posted April 3, 2019 Posted April 3, 2019 They use the new traffic and weather area at the top of the hour and half hour on GDNY.

I guess thinking too far out of the box and not hiring a more mainstream designer has its risks. Not surprised at the staggered roll-out, the production manager there is too busy moving and shaking to worry about small details like a coordinated launch date.

From what I’ve heard is Fox came to them with a hodgepodge or wants/must haves and constantly requested changes well through the last minute. It doesn’t matter if you have the best designer in the world, if the station/customer wants something that’s what they get. The designers other work I’ve seen is very good.

Although the design of the traffic standup is a pretty odd (pretty distracting even). 2 hours ago, TVCSD said: Not surprised at the staggered roll-out, the production manager there is too busy moving and shaking to worry about small details like a coordinated launch date. IMO, I don't mind waiting longer. I'm just happy WNYW will finally have a new set.
RealNews18 227 Posted April 25, 2019 Posted April 25, 2019 I really don’t think it looks terrible. It looks as if the traffic background is to represent the city’s street grid. We’ve seen a tiny portion of the set. Not really sure how you’d judge off that.
RealNews18 227 Posted April 28, 2019 Posted April 28, 2019 If you look at Audrey Puente Instagram story from earlier tonight you see what look like a tiny preview of the new set.. it has another screen and more of the white brick type like we see in the weather center.
TennTV1983 811 Posted April 28, 2019 Posted April 28, 2019 Everything about the new setup is giving off New York Subway vibes with all of the white tiling that's being used. It's like being inside of a train station.

Do you have a link to the actual post? I didn't see anything on her instagram (yes I know how creepy that sounds). Her facebook has this:

rkolsen 1697 Posted May 5, 2019 Posted May 5, 2019 That one area with the vertical monitors with the pink backdrop was a last minute decision. A decision that caused the designer to have to reconfigure the entire layout while parts were already under construction.
Action Newsroom 1317 Posted May 5, 2019 Posted May 5, 2019 Looks pretty nice from what I can see so far. Can't wait for the full reveal (although I feel I might be in a minority so...).
WestleyWolf 123 Posted May 5, 2019 Posted May 5, 2019 I'm seeing a Teeny bit of WTXF in there with some new elements of the set.
Dk_mediaNYC 30 Posted May 5, 2019 Author Posted May 5, 2019 Samantha replies to my message she thinks the set will be ready/debut by months end!
RealNews18 227 Posted May 5, 2019 Posted May 5, 2019 I’m gonna assume here that somehow they may have to be in the newsroom for a weekend again or so so they can construct the couch area for good day. (Assuming they keep it) if I’m correct that’s where they have the temp set right now.
rkolsen 1697 Posted May 6, 2019 Posted May 6, 2019 The design isn’t going exactly as visioned as the station is screwing up installation (piece by piece). They additionally are going cheap on their lighting design (fixtures as @Weeters mentioned remaining and the actual design) which can make or break a set. However I’ve been told that the original vision will be followed through but may not look it’s best because of the lighting. Case in point the weather and traffic area.

That's a good way to make a designer never want to do work for your company again.
