newsie 11 Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 For the past week, WTKR has been broadcasting from the "Interactive Newsroom" using the wall with the plasmas for weather and the stand and plasma set up for news. Babs announced today at noon that "something new is coming to out studio" obviously hinting a new set. She said, "You have noticed big changes here at NewsChannel 3 and another one is coming."

TexasTVNews 1377 Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 Any idea who's designing the new set? Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/2031-wtkr-getting-a-new-set/#findComment-19598 Share on other sites More sharing options...
newsie 11 Posted September 14, 2007 Author Share Posted September 14, 2007 Probably will be in-house but will be nice if they actually get a designer. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/2031-wtkr-getting-a-new-set/#findComment-19604 Share on other sites More sharing options...
newsie 11 Posted September 17, 2007 Author Share Posted September 17, 2007 All they did was a new desk and altered the backdrops a little. If I can get a cap, I will.

tvpirate05 1 Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 Apparently they have more in mind. They returned the newsroom again. Why not just stay there until they have everything together?

Ntropolis 596 Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 No. No. No. Not the return of "Fugitive Finder." Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/2031-wtkr-getting-a-new-set/#findComment-20230 Share on other sites More sharing options...
WAVY 10 Fan 233 Posted September 25, 2007 Share Posted September 25, 2007 No. No. No. Not the return of "Fugitive Finder." What font is that? Just as we were actually giving 'TKR some compliments for axing the corny "Your" in the NewsChannel 3 branding, they pick something like that...for that story. 1 bit of good news though...it's not Comic Sans like WWOR (remember that from last year) Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/2031-wtkr-getting-a-new-set/#findComment-20325 Share on other sites More sharing options...
tvpirate05 1 Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 Okay a few more differences. They replaced the control room screen with a skyline of downtown Norfolk. It's kinda reminiscent of the set they used in the late-80s.

newsie 11 Posted September 26, 2007 Author Share Posted September 26, 2007 To be honest, the new backdrop looks like something temporary. Caps... Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/2031-wtkr-getting-a-new-set/#findComment-20421 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Que 73 Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 Maybe they are getting ready for some ch-ch-ch-changes... Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/2031-wtkr-getting-a-new-set/#findComment-20422 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ntropolis 596 Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 A wider view... Not bad, not bad... definitely a change from the fake control room. I wonder if they change it to night for 11pm. The plasma is a lot better for weather than the the huge projection screen nicknamed "BAM" (big-ass monitor... this is seriously what it was nicknamed there). Maybe they are getting ready for some ch-ch-ch-changes... Before you know it, they'll be back in the newsroom a couple weeks from now.
