Yes, it’s the studio going into “standby” mode or something along those lines. Essentially to reduce power consumption.

Not sure if the new sets in NSW and VIC do it as-well

I mean, with studio lighting, you’re meant to be able to control it so that you can program transitions like this. Broadcasters worldwide do this for a variety of reasons.

It’s a e s t h e t i c.

It’s also quite a dated production technique. Very 90s and early 2000s.

Needs more cheesiness if you’re using “We’re With You”…

(can’t find the NBN version, using TVW’s version, it’s close enough)

Not to get too hung up on this tangent, but WNAC-TV (later becoming WNEV and now WHDH) Channel 7 in Boston originated the “We’re With You” campaign that TVW-7 adopted.

While America’s ABC used its own composition to take on We’re With You as a network slogan for 1984-85.

ABC NT’s set is having a makeover ahead of NT Election. The bulletin will maintain tight shots until Saturday.

Looks messy, the white boxes should all be the same height and text justified to the top IMO.
