William 0 Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 Set by BDI (I got this capture from their site, sorry I just don't do 5-7AM.) From Better Mornings Atlanta anchor Mike Brooks "Today, we broadcast “Better Mornings Atlanta” from our brand new set! This thing is amazing. The colors are new, the cameras are new… even the carpet is new. I hope you had a chance to check it out. There is so much room that we really don’t know how to use all the different shots! The weather wall alone is a HUGE piece of real estate. Plus, we even have a desk. And believe me, the chance to sit down is a welcome change for all of us."

TennTV1983 804 Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 Just looking at WGCL's new digs, I'm wondering why Meredith Corp couldn't have given the same kind of treatment to WSMV, which seems to be the most shortchanged out of all the Meredith-owned stations. What's next: new graphics from Hothaus? Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/4460-wgcls-new-set/#findComment-41607 Share on other sites More sharing options...
kjohnson 17 Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 Why do their graphics look like they are stuck in 1995? I like the set, however. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/4460-wgcls-new-set/#findComment-41685 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Que 73 Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 Well I can't wait to see what new graphics are on the way for this station. The stuff on the set kind of reminds of the current KPIX graphics (not saying that they are going to get that or anything).

Mrtraveler01 738 Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 Just looking at WGCL's new digs, I'm wondering why Meredith Corp couldn't have given the same kind of treatment to WSMV, which seems to be the most shortchanged out of all the Meredith-owned stations. What's next: new graphics from Hothaus? KCTV is really getting short changed much more than WSMV, at least they're in HD. All KCTV has is some modified versions of graphics they already have and new weather graphics. They redid the weather center too a while back. However not even a hint of them going HD any time soon. WGCL's graphics desperately need an update though. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/4460-wgcls-new-set/#findComment-41696 Share on other sites More sharing options...
thafernykid 2 Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 Ahh. I was wondering why it looked a bit like the set at KLAS. BDI designed both of them. I really like it, but the graphics definitely need a tune-up. Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/4460-wgcls-new-set/#findComment-41697 Share on other sites More sharing options...
eyewitness_news 5 Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 WGCL's set definitely needed a upgrade, but shouldn't their graphics? It's time to step up and go HD now that the deadline to switch to digital-only broadcasting is fast approaching. WSB and WXIA are already several steps ahead of them.

Ntropolis 596 Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 It's time to step up and go HD now that the deadline to switch to digital-only broadcasting is fast approaching. This is only for digital, not HD. I hope that's not what you were implying, you've gotta be choosy about wording when it comes to HD and digital. If you mean now's a great time for a station to upgrade to HD production because of the switch, then yeah.
