tyrannical bastard 3410 Posted July 7, 2020 Author Share Posted July 7, 2020 I'm wondering if this is going to be a Devlin job? AFAIK, no one else in Alabama is getting a new set at this time. Usually Gray (and Raycom) have been FX customers for their jobs, and some of the legacy Gray stations still have, for the most part, their standard-issue Gil Jimenez sets (with technical upgrades). The only Devlin set at a Gray station I can recall is at KCRG, and this was before Gray bought them in 2015. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birmingham has really stepped up the set game and hopefully this will compete with WIAT and WVTM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That view overlooking the entire city is something else. WBRC has a decent amount of studio space too - so I'm pretty pumped for what their set will look like.

BRC was one of those legacy Raycom stations that had its own art department - at least as of a few years ago - but who knows today. If VizRT is part of the upgrade, my guess is they'll get something standard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ALnewsguy 0 Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 Love the First Alert weather center, the anchor desk will take getting used to....the graphics however, not a fan. The lower thirds are sometimes hard to read and aren’t bold enough. Weather graphics are ok.... Definitely a downgrade from the previous package. Also wish they would have gone with a different music package, something more upbeat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaun 2 Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 Love the set... curious as to how the morning show sit downs and music setups will look like. Seems they have some portable screens off in the corner to move around. As for the graphics, I like them a lot besides that ticker. I feel like the time and temp is just thrown in there. Wish there was a clean cut rectangle there instead of a point. The weather graphics aren't the greatest but I think they will grow on me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
