Action Newsroom 1277 Posted August 3, 2024 Share Posted August 3, 2024 Wow! the last set was fantastic in its own right. So this new creation must be a glorious godsend (exaggerating, yes, but still). I really can't wait to see it in action (pun intended).

sfomspphl 490 Posted August 3, 2024 Share Posted August 3, 2024 (edited) Interesting it's also the youngest of their big market sets dating to 2017 except the WABC special case....KGO, WLS, KTRK, KABC were in the 2015-16 range I think https://6abc.com/post/new-action-news-set-coming-soon-6abc-studio-undergoes-makeover/15136917/ Wonder what prompted them to go earlier other than being a test for what WABC implements in Hudson Square. Maybe post Gardner prompting some more retooling.

phillynewslover 134 Posted August 3, 2024 Share Posted August 3, 2024 I only caught a glimpse of the news this morning and was wondering why Chris Sowers was in the weather office and not in front of the green screen. I guess this explains it. Can't wait to see how the new (or "made over") set looks.

HanSolo 153 Posted August 5, 2024 Share Posted August 5, 2024 (edited) 5 hours ago, ScottSchell said: They are back in the studio this morning. “A” studio but not “the” studio. Looks like, as was the case last time, they took a few days to relocate a piece of the set over to the second studio across the hall. That time, they had that “kiddie table” set in the main studio that they used while moving a chunk of the main set, this time they just used the newsroom while that happened. Edited August 5, 2024 by HanSolo Fixed a typo and unclear language about this change vs the previous change. 3 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/21503-wpvi-new-set-2024/#findComment-299284 Share on other sites More sharing options...

HanSolo 153 Posted August 6, 2024 Share Posted August 6, 2024 And they are open about it being a temporary home, so they’re not trying to be all cagey about it. 4 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/21503-wpvi-new-set-2024/#findComment-299322 Share on other sites More sharing options...

C Block 1566 Posted September 29, 2024 Share Posted September 29, 2024 Looks nice....but also....it doesn't look all that different from what it replaced. I agree with the comments about the home base looking a little washed out. Hopefully they can fix that. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/21503-wpvi-new-set-2024/#findComment-300682 Share on other sites More sharing options...

One could argue that there’s a similar layout between the two sets (video wall / home base / weather center). This (see below) is a good example of that… Old New Had they made some tweaks to the previous set, they could have extended its life a bit longer. This new set is a downgrade, imo. Plus, it’s poorly lit. 1 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/21503-wpvi-new-set-2024/#findComment-300684 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junk Junk 5 Posted September 29, 2024 Share Posted September 29, 2024 In some ways this set feels a bit retro with all the “bold” colors. Like most of these changes, I think it will be just fine after a while… 2 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/21503-wpvi-new-set-2024/#findComment-300686 Share on other sites More sharing options...
TennTV1983 804 Posted September 29, 2024 Share Posted September 29, 2024 I've noticed there's a heavy reliance on seamless LED paneling throughout the renovated studio. It's like someone saw what Sinclair did with WJLA and said, "Eh. We can do it way better." I do like the faux windows in the background that make it look like they're in a fancy skyscraper somewhere. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/21503-wpvi-new-set-2024/#findComment-300698 Share on other sites More sharing options...
HanSolo 153 Posted September 29, 2024 Share Posted September 29, 2024 Serious upgrade. There’s only so many elements and so many shapes to a studio. Of course if one stretches the point there will be “resemblances.” But it’s clearly distinct. And looks great. 3 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/21503-wpvi-new-set-2024/#findComment-300700 Share on other sites More sharing options...
wofchristian 45 Posted February 6 Author Share Posted February 6 6abc posted an in depth look at the new studio. Apparently, the anchors desk has the ability to spin around. https://6abc.com/videoClip/15868410/ Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/21503-wpvi-new-set-2024/#findComment-303449 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm glad tho that 6abc made this video and proved me wrong on my thoughts. It is bigger than the old studio and indeed it is much better than the previous. -- matt 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/21503-wpvi-new-set-2024/#findComment-303455 Share on other sites More sharing options...
brb588 102 Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 The video really highlights things. It was a massive endeavor. However, I still think the lighting is off and everything looks washed out. 3 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/21503-wpvi-new-set-2024/#findComment-303478 Share on other sites More sharing options...
