SevenHD 0 Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 It looks like ABC will be making some changes to there set for World News Tonight. Tonight they broadcasted from some temporary set. It seemed very small. Charlie did not stand up at all. They have been in this small temorary set for three days now. They would not even zoom out when the closing music came on. So I guess its really tiny. I hope they don't make to many changes to the set because I loved it the way it was. When it was first introduced in 2004 it had no color and looked very boring. Then in 2006 they made some nice changes which made a big difference. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/2711-updating-the-world-news-set/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
alaskanews 113 Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 Yea I really liked their set. Although I must say NBC's new one is pretty nice. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/2711-updating-the-world-news-set/#findComment-24269 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vlad 325 Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Well perhaps they are leaving things intact and turning their broadcast into 1280 x 720p Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/2711-updating-the-world-news-set/#findComment-24291 Share on other sites More sharing options...
KRAP-TV 146 Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 This rendering (http://www.gadesigns.net/HTML/newsroom.html) by George Allison Designs is the direction ABC News should have taken - It looks great! I thought that the more recent remodel during the Peter Jennings era (http://www.setstudio.com/pages/abcnews/) was underwhelming by comparison. The small updates they did when Charlie came aboard helped, but I never really cared for this incarnation. Hopefully the studio will take a few cues from George Allison's rendering...

SevenHD 0 Posted December 19, 2007 Author Share Posted December 19, 2007 I wonder how long this is going to take. I have a feeling not to long because they did not mention it. I'm guessing it will be done by the begining of the new year which was the exact setup they did when they previously updated it when Elizabeth and Bob took over two years ago.

wabceyewitness 818 Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 The new set will be HD compliant and will debut shortly after the New Year begins. "World News" will go HD later in 2008.

MidnightJunkie 55 Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 I'm hoping a graphics change comes along with the updated set as well. I can't believe they ditched the best graphics package that came in 2004 for the Ice Cubes design that came along with Elizabitch...er...beth and Bob.

mediadorkx07 0 Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 TVSpy says a graphics change is coming. No music changes. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/2711-updating-the-world-news-set/#findComment-24458 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElliotJones 52 Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 The new set will be HD compliant and will debut shortly after the New Year begins. "World News" will go HD later in 2008. Not totally. Field reports will still be done in SD. ABC just bought a batch of Sony PDW 510 XDCAM's which record's in Sony's DVCAM codec.
