Once again, it looks familiar as it uses similar graphics for the background as the previous studio (which was very small -- at least the part used on air), but also very different and modern. Interestingly, the broadcast opened with some soft music playing as Anderson began. I don't believe 360 has used any sort of theme music in years. No open. No bumpers. Nothing. (I'll update this post with more screenshots throughout the hour.) CNN really likes those floor monitors. Now THAT is a set.

Action Newsroom 1284 Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 Damn! And I thought we all thought CNN would drop the ball with those sets. Again... masterpieces.

(I don't want to steal your prediction but I also thought this was a good bet, specifically because the purple-lit bricks were such a big part of the graphic design.) Here's Cuomo's studio, shared with New Day. They again do a nice job of making it look different for this broadcast. They're using the other side of the studio. (The "ticker" on the top left of the first image can help find your bearings.)

rkolsen 1684 Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 I’m surprised they are using camerapersons still. I thought they used robotics. I think all five studios have launched and look amazing. One thing though the makeup artists need to adjust for LED lighting and 4K cameras.

KRAP-TV 146 Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 Not trying to take anything away from these sets (they are quite nice). I'm just a little surprised they went for an evolutionary look as opposed to going with a clean sheet redesign.

Northerner 32 Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 NewscastStudio also has a few photos of Fareed Zakaria GPS. They've taken up residence in the CNN Tonight/Erin Burnett studio.

Geoffrey 865 Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 Kate Bolduan and At This Hour finally moved into their new studio a few weeks after temporarily moving into the newsroom. As was the arrangement at Columbus Circle, the show shares the studio with New Day and Cuomo Prime Time. I'm a fan of all the new studios (except for the newsroom) but I wonder if they're "too New York" with all the skyline images. I think New Yorkers tend to think the world revolves around them and I'm just not sure the rest of the country is dying to see Manhattan buildings in national broadcast graphics all the time.

Geoffrey 865 Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 This morning was the first time I've seen CNN use the entire newsroom desk as they had six people (two anchors, plus four guests) on there. Thought it looked interesting. (I think it would look better if the cameras -- at least the main one -- weren't so close to the talent.)

Unfortunately the cameras are as back as they can go on the rostrum. Right below them is where the camera operator sits along with the stage manager.

Northerner 32 Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 I think the old newsroom was much better. Even when they had those temporary walls behind them on the weekend - I just don't like this at all. Since Jeff Zucker seemingly wants to move CNN to NYC, the roof could be a little higher at the very least!

Geoffrey 865 Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 Jake Tapper was in New York today for what I believe was The Lead's first time broadcasting from Hudson Yards. The show used the new AC360 studio and gave us a look at another area that I don't think had been seen on air before. Most recently when The Lead was anchored from Columbus Circle, Tapper would be in the "CNN Tonight" studio. Before that, Tapper would use the newsroom set.
