She filled in on the weekday bulletin the other week though. (Although I believe this was her first time)

They used this theme on Studio 10 and currently on Midday. It’s a great alternative theme.
10 definitely has the best theme of the networks.

Only on rare occasions I believe. Last time I believe was when Sandra’s father died, so that was probably a case of only person senior enough they could get in at late notice.

It’s not bad but it’s nowhere near as good as their main theme —stick to that, especially for full bulletins.

True, but I don’t think it was an additional day, I think she read Sunday and Monday rather than Sat/Sun

Do they use this police themed background for the two way box much? Can’t recall it being used.

Also, is this another new backdrop for Brisbane?

There’s a new end tag for video social posts in the same style as the new promos / social media headers.

Not bad, but maybe slightly too long. Not sure it needs to animate through all of the bulletins.

Yeah, not bad, a bit too long. Hopefully they do a local version for city specific stories too.

And because quality control seemingly doesn’t exist at 10, a Melbourne version added to this national story shared on the main account

She’s been in promos before too, along side the weekday presenters

Yes, as I noted.

But that hasn’t been since 2019, not sure why anyone expects them to start again now :man_shrugging:t3:

My best guess, as I mentioned above at the time, is that Hugh was in the original banner image as a national figure and that’s likely why he was still included.

He’s the national affairs editor, seen most nights in all states, regularly fills in in Syd/Bris, national weekend and Midday bulletins.

He’d be very well known to their audience.

Gotta have a wrinkly older man there to balance out the female energy.

I wish I was joking but I’m not.

Both Jen and Sandra are also quite well known outside their respective markets, so perhaps they should be included too

Is this still going on? For a second I thought a host and date for the late news had been announced.

it’s important that we discuss how many faces appear on a facebook banner :face_with_diagonal_mouth:

Just watching the Afternoon bulletin now in Queensland, and not sure what it is but presentation looks slightly better with Angela today. The angle perhaps? Not sure.

But this isn’t the same location that Kate presents Adelaide bulletin from, is it? At least the presentation for that allows for a wide angle with desk in shot, this is just a locked camera in front of a green screen.

Same spot as Adelaide. Like Midday, they don’t use any graphics behind the presenter.

Interesting to note that Ang had a personalised VO from Sandra Sully for Afternoons but just a generic VO for Midday

Not sure why they go with such a tight shot for the whole bulletin then, if there is the room / scaled version of the main desk to utilise?

Understand they don’t do story specific backdrops like Adelaide does, but surely even just with the generic keyed background it would look a lot better.

Probably recorded this afternoon. I wonder is she recorded one for Midday (if Ang is back tomorrow).
