mattLAW 2 Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 Nice! Do the weather anchors use the two large screen monitors at the desk to do weather reports or do they also use a chromakey screen? Wow! Good job! BTW did FX do the Headline News set? matt.

fxgroup 0 Posted December 6, 2006 Author Share Posted December 6, 2006 The large monitors at the weather pod are used to show graphics but the station still has a key wall. The monitor setup is nice because it allows one of the main anchors to join the meteorologist at the pod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoustonTVNews 0 Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 That set is definitely a beauty, no arguement here. May be in OKC within the next few weeks since I have relatives there... Definitely want to see it in action! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jterry 43 Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 Just an absolutely beautiful set. KWTV is very lucky, just keep the pythons away! ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ntropolis 593 Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 So do they still have a Chroma Key wall?? Sí. The large monitors at the weather pod are used to show graphics but the station still has a key wall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FirstNews8 13 Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 I meant, do they use the monitor for the weather, or chroma key wall for the main forecast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest soonerliberal Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 I live in the Oklahoma City market, and yes, KWTV does use both the chroma key and the large screens for weathercasts. They tend to switch back and forth. As someone who sees this set live on television, I must say it looks absolutely amazing. It is by far the most advanced and professional set in the region. Here is a link to KWTV's website, with more information and pictures of the set: http://www.newsok.com/article/2971198 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikePulse 315 Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 Sleek and sexy. That's what I like in a news set. However, content is just as important as appearance, too. : But still, cool set! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

10Viewer 319 Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 A 5,100 square foot set? Is that really possible? That's more than doube the size of my house! Most local affiliates I am familiar with don't have the space for a set that size. Most seem to be in the 1,000-2,000 square foot range...or am I on the low end of the curve?

fxgroup 0 Posted January 3, 2007 Author Share Posted January 3, 2007 The studio is in fact 5,100 square feet. The quote about 2,000 square feet refers to the weather center and adjoining offices (which is part of the 5,100 number) On KWTV's site they refer to the 5,100 square feet number and indicate that it was formerly a storage area.

punkrawkheaven 0 Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 lol, forgot about the Python Direah, lol. For some of you who dont know, I guess I Python got loose in the new $350,000 control room (which I might add, they hadn't been in there for more than 2 weeks.) I guess it stunk soo bad, they had some fun time getting the smell out. Here are some pix of there old Set, been in there new studio its pretty nice!!!!
