A slightly longer version of the Sydney promo previously posted:
The voiceover at the end confirms January 22 as the date for Peter Overton’s return to Nine News Sydney, as previously mentioned. This 30 Second Promo also includes a few more reporter scenes including perhaps a major coup for a Sydney news promo - State Political Reporter Chris O’Keefe walking alongside NSW Premier Mike Baird!
A Quote from the Newscaststudio.com link above
“with a set that can be a model for a national look in other states”.
The sets will be scaled to suit the space they are to be fitted into.
As stated previously Perth’s news studio is not that big to start with. Most sets look much, much bigger on TV than they are in reality.
Even though it’s a bit hard to make out, I think this new screen is a Panasonic just like the old one was (and the current/outgoing backdrop screen is):
Doesn’t Nine News Perth have something similar with it’s current set? If so, I think we very well may be looking at a small part of the new Nine News Sydney set in those caps!
A much better promo, IMO, showing more of the experienced team.
Yuck. It is the same as Nine News Gold Coast and more notably the Today Show. Whilst I am glad the old Nine News/Today Show(2009-2011) plasma is gone, I really hope that eyesore isn’t apart of the new set and just borrowed from Today. (N.B. I know the current Today Show plasma has a grey outlining but when the new set launched in last February it was black. Perhaps they had two).
It looks to me like they’ve been in a different studio yesterday/today (or at the very least they’ve moved the set to a new position within the studio). The very distinctive markings on the floor are different, cameras are much lower quality (especially the wide shots) and the wide shots are all very tight/from slightly different angles.
So fingers crossed the new set is going in this week!
