As in the main news channel studio.
News Channel is using the NSW studio this morning.
Still using the NSW set as of 2PM. Interesting.
Much prefer the NSW set. Ever since the relaunch last year the national set’s lighting looks dreadfully dark.
The bones of the NC set are great, they just need to update it with bigger screens, restore a standing presentation position and fix the lighting.
Weekend Breakfast being broadcast from another studio this morning… I think the ACT news set?
Looks like it
Bulletins with Jason Om coming from the set too
Who was the fill-in presenter on Weekend Breakfast this morning?
The fill in presenter is Tom Iggulden.
and the show is definitely coming from the Canberra studio
The news channel are coming out of the canberra studio today and tomorrow morning while Sydney undergoes the installation of new equipment in the control room
Why Canberra rather than Melbourne? Seems a bit strange though I’m sure there’s a good reason.
It has to be the canberra studio as insiders and offsides will be coming from Melbourne tomorrow and they need the studio
Plus canberra is a backup studio to Melbourne, so it tests the redundancy and backup workflows
Any chance of a HD upgrade?
No HD at this stage
The studio was converted from inews to ENPS and a new video playout system
Clearly not very successfully given tonight’s technical issues!
Closer.
And probably for neutrality reasons as well, because isn’t ABC News Canberra the technical difficulties back-up for both NSW and Victoria?
ABC News Tonight coming from Perth this evening with Michael Tetlow, presented as two half-hour bulletins instead of one full hour. The bulletin usually comes out of Melbourne.
