TennTV1983 742 Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 I mean for a quick build, you have to come to an agreement that these are fairly nice quick builds. Two things that made WFOR's new set such a quick build: They kept the existing wood floor. The studio is much smaller than that of KCBS and KOVR, so fewer set pieces needed to be fabricated together.

Gdpweatherman 4 Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 The set debuted today (as noted above). They posted a brief tour online: http://miami.cbslocal.com/2017/08/07/cbs4-news-new-set-same-commitment-real-news/ Looks good, just a bit small in my opinion. Definitely better than what they had before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rkolsen 1675 Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 It looks very nice. If they can easily remove the desk I imagine they could even hold small local debates. One surprising thing is that there isn't a working weather center (or a computer pod at a minimum) on set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One surprising thing is that there isn't a working weather center (or a computer pod at a minimum) on set. The corner projection wall at the far back of the studio could probably serve as a impromptu pod area...assuming if they really need it. Surprisingly, it was pointed out as one of the last remaining pieces from the previous set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Action Newsroom 1149 Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Despite being a small space, this set looks very nice for a mandate. And because of the small space, I'm sure they'll use every inch well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LivefromNewYork 37 Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Very impressed by the use of space, but disappointed by no weather center proper. Found some more pics here on NewscastStudio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Breaking News 802 Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 So who's next for the mandate CBS set which is nice. WBZ Boston or WCCO MSP? What about KTVT in DFW or should I say WJZ? Oh NOOOOO that would be too much like right huh? Very nice WFOR:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Action Newsroom 1149 Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 So who's next for the mandate CBS set which is nice. WBZ Boston or WCCO MSP? WBZ already had a new set last year. If anything, that should be a mandate set too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WCBS is in the process of building a new set currently, and WBBM is next along with most likely ‘CCO. I think we can actually put WJZ in the market of rebranding next year, but not this year.

C Block 1487 Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 Why does everyone need to get a new set all at once? WCCO's set is *maybe* five years old. Plus they have a lot more moving parts with the streetside elements and all their feel-good Minnesota stuff. Their current setup seems to be fine for all of that.
