Guest abc7miami Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 WTVT is saying good bye to their old set, and will become the first station in Tampa Bay to be broadcast in HD. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YiautvsLgTE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KKyuubi 0 Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 Please hope they don't get WTXF's graphics and they get an HD version of their current graphics... Touching, I've never seen any station do that before, especially an O&O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CDubya87 0 Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 I don't know about O&O's, but when KSN got it's current set in 2000, they made a series of touching promos describing the old one - but they never directly said what was going on. They talked about the memories they shared, the times of playing football and then breaking it by tackling it...but they never said they were getting a new set, then one day, it was just there.

10Viewer 319 Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 WTVT did a similar tribute on "Good Day Tampa Bay" in January 1999 when they dismantled the "spaceship" set from 1994. They showed video of crews removing the old desk and that kind of thing. They debuted the new (current) set after the Super Bowl in 1999. WFLA also did a similar tribute in March 2000 when they shut down their longtime 905 E. Jackson St. studios. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Junk Junk Posted March 10, 2007 Share Posted March 10, 2007 There was barely a mention about the new set they're constructing at- and all the new changes that are coming to WAGA. Yet WTVT has promos for their new set? I'm jealous... > Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ntropolis 593 Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 Look how empty the studio gotten! So... will the new set be a newsroom set, or the set-in-a-can? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexasTVNews 1367 Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 When the new set is done, who's going on studio tour to get pictures? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
storm5guy 0 Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 When the new set is done, who's going on studio tour to get pictures? I believe the station is closed to visitors for security reasons, but if that changed, I'm sure many of us would be jumping at the chance to get in there.

Guest wfaa8fan Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 If they can keep the "newsroom" backdrop, that would be rather nice, compared to the other 'over the top' backdrops seen on the other Fox O&Os. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbrothers 0 Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 I think it would be one of the best. Something new and unique unlike the other Fox O&O's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jhampsten 0 Posted April 20, 2007 Share Posted April 20, 2007 Looks a hell of a lot better than any Fox O&O redo that I know of. if only they did that good of job to KTVI's set when they redid that last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest abc7miami Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 WTVT's New set debuts today!! Here's The website Complete with photos, time lapse construction, and a blueprint. http://media.myfoxtampabay.com/newset/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ib-td 1 Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 Watch it cfif, christians think you turn into the devil with that number!! lol 8) I think the set is pretty good. Certainly, it is better than any other in the Bay area. I was hoping for a new gfx package with the set, or new music etc., maybe later when the 2nd set and the weather area are finished.
