Sam Horn 78 Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 Got a new set and graphics. GFX were done in house. Where's our PVD people on this one? I'm working on caps and stuff... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mediadorkx07 0 Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 It's been talked about for a while... you can see a picture of construction and a vlog from the old set/temp set: http://community.myfoxprovidence.com/blogs/MarkZinni and of course clips on their site. Like the graphics... the set, not so much... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
who?cares 253 Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 Not bad for in-house. I wonder who did the set? BTW who is LIN's Flagship, wikipedia says WPRI, but i thought WISH was? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Horn 78 Posted March 20, 2008 Author Share Posted March 20, 2008 No, it's WPRI. Which makes sense, seeing as LIN is headquartered in Providence and not Indianapolis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Horn 78 Posted March 20, 2008 Author Share Posted March 20, 2008 Oh! And the set... I'm working on finding that out. I *was* told though that it was designed out of town, but design specs were then handed off to a local contractor. Also, the weather center monitor wall was replaced by a 72" DLP, and the video wall on the other side of the set (IIRC) was replaced by a silk screen and projector. Still working on pics...

Blargh 2 Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 Damn! I was going to post this thread. The graphics easily beat WJAR's. Very professional and well-done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Horn 78 Posted March 20, 2008 Author Share Posted March 20, 2008 I like WJAR's new look though, especially the rearranging of the O&O 10 logo. I'm wondering if LIN will push this gfx package out on other stations... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TSSZNews 1046 Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 In house? I don't think all of it is. It looks very similar to what WVBT just got (also LIN-owned.) I'd definitely say parts of that look are either GO or RenderOn. -T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd definitely say parts of that look are either GO or RenderOn. -T I was told by someone at WPRI that they were entirely in house. ETA: Keep in mind that in house for WPRI would be the same as in house for all of LIN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

providencetv 0 Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 the set was a refresh by FX Group, the graphics were a custom package done by Renderon for WPRI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

newsguy 0 Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 It's not clunky, this crappy youtube encoding is skipping some frames..I've seen the open on tv and it's very smooth. Awesome stuff, great improvement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
