It could have been slightly better, but I liked several of the elements like the virtual mapping on the anchor desk. Also, I am not pleased that they are dropping Impact V.6 for CBS Local and the CBS graphics pack. This is just so meh.

This is just so meh. Is that confirmed? Or is that just what Nexstar does with this graphics package? If so, I'm actually glad they're dropping Impact. They use it entirely too much. They used it for 15 years prior to getting the jcbD graphics, and it got annoying and I was finally glad to see it go. Then they brought it back with the virtual set, and I didn't mind it at first, but now its getting annoying again. I have no idea why they love Impact so much. This is all just my opinion. I really like Impact, don't get me wrong. Its just over used on WKBN. Although the package they're replacing it with isn't all that good. I do like hearing it on WOIO, however.

For all we know, WKBN could use Guardian, Inergy, or hell, even Extreme (like WOWK).

news89 468 Posted October 15, 2019 Posted October 15, 2019 Wkbn has the standard Nexstar set without the delka desk. For the first ever the weather center is in the studio. WKBN has commissioned version7 of Impact. https://www.wkbn.com/news/local-news/wkbn-debuting-new-studio-during-5-p-m-news/
tyrannical bastard 4028 Posted October 15, 2019 Posted October 15, 2019 I'm a little bummed they kept Impact, but the set looks amazing! They do the same "window" look with the desk like they did with WJHL. Light years better than WFMJ and their fake monitor array,..

It's so silly when stations go into the big long historical spiel about being part of the community, serving the viewers, and whatever else cliches when they get some new walls. Rant aside, it's a fresh look and pleasantly bright. A lot of studios seem dark nowadays.
RGSJenkins 435 Posted October 15, 2019 Posted October 15, 2019 I was gonna do something big for my 1K post, but I'll post this instead. 6pm Open: (I don't like how they cut off the theme.) Close:
NEOMatrix 1307 Posted October 15, 2019 Author Posted October 15, 2019 Best set in Youngstown! Didn't take much since WYTV is coming out of the broom closet and WFMJ...

Close: I'll have to hear more-but so far, I'm liking Impact v7. It has a nice sound to it. Reminds me a lot of v4. Did anyone notice their new handheld teleprompter operator? IT'S MASSIVE!! It looks like those TV remotes they make with giant buttons for old people who can't see. Is that really necessary? Other than that-it's a nice upgrade.
TSSZNews 1052 Posted October 16, 2019 Posted October 16, 2019 Is....is that Impact V7?? Commissioned by a DMA 125 station???

news89 468 Posted October 16, 2019 Posted October 16, 2019 Yes Is....is that Impact V7?? Commissioned by a DMA 125 station??? They did commished version 7 of Impact.

This is a major upgrade to Newswatch27.
rkolsen 1685 Posted October 16, 2019 Posted October 16, 2019 Are those vertical towers to the side of the desks LEDs?
NEOMatrix 1307 Posted October 16, 2019 Author Posted October 16, 2019 And here we thought that WKBN would get an Arnold theme like CBS Local or Guardian. Impact V7 sounds great, maybe not legendary but great nonetheless.
