I still can’t get over how they have done absolutely nothing to the Backdrop after over a year of being aired. Even with me meeting the people in charge of it, telling them they should look into it, and them confirming that as I told them, many people have also told them that, they still haven’t customised it. Surely it can’t be that difficult to do.

All they need to do is strip away the fake set and use the existing images clean on the key, and centre the presenters (except for OTS). 100% improved!

I know the weather is filmed eaelier. But they need to look over to pretebd like tgey are in the sane room. I find its weird how when they throw to weather and finish, they are just looking straight ahead

I’ve thought the same, but no head turns looks like its now standard in Australian news. SCTV Tas don’t do it, Seven RQLD don’t do it. Though Nine Adelaide did head turns in the early 2010s when they still had keyed weather.

Seven Adelaide always did it with the old wooden set but the green screen was always immediately off-side so it was still natural for a head turn. But for a while now, they’ve returned to green screen on the (commendable) rare occasion that Amelia’s actually presenting in the studio and not on-location. Head turns for Amelia very, but Jane and John don’t. Likely to do with the fact that the green screen is located in front and to the left of the set from Jane and John’s perspective.

what region is that. All i know for my region (border north east) The local news is filmed in an upstairs room, and the weather must be filmed down in the main studio

I have some photos from melboruen, I’ll see if i can find them, and post them here.

My entire last paragraph was about Seven Adelaide’s green screen.

But most stories are posted to the respective Facebook pages.

But most stories are posted to the respective Facebook pages.

And, in some cases, they’re uploaded RIGHT BEFORE local windows begin to air on television.

[JasonF]

but not all stories only stories that are promoted on the news break are uploaded

[NQCQTV2]

Saw one of those “see it first” promos this morning and noticed they’ve added a “Weeknights at 6.00” graphic to it

[NQTV]

Nice live cross last night in Queensland on escaped prisoners from Rockhampton:

[melbournefan]

How would they even be doing the crosses, I’d say that there wouldn’t be any microwave receivers up there and they still seem to be in HD!.

Must be using LiveU or similar.

[lexington]

LiveU, TVU, Dejero … mSAT. Plenty of options.

ACT Budget:

[killy06]

Those are some pretty ordinary looking graphics for 9, I reckon I could do better in PowerPoint.

[NewsWeary]

Was the ACT budget the first story on the Canberra bulletin tonight?

[Abesty]

@NewsWeary Yes, the Canberra bulletin opened with one local story on the budget, then went to the live window, then later on went to the local window for regular local stories as always.

I’m guessing the other SNSW markets opened with a local story as well.

@killy06 I agree the graphics were disappointing this year, especially compared to what they used last year, which look more like the graphics Nine use on metro bulletins for the Federal/State budgets:
