Fox17 getting new set

Post by dwp49423 » Mon Jul 24, 2023 5:23 am

Being an early riser, I noticed that Fox17 was doing their morning news this morning from the newsroom (similar setup that Unfiltered has been using with the vertical monitor). At the start of the 5am hour, substitute anchor Robb Westaby mentioned the different look was due to their current set being demolished with the new one debuting in a few weeks.

So far it appears they only have one camera to use as it has remained on a static shot that only changed at 5am when Lauren Edwards came on to co-anchor with Robb.

EDIT: And of course as soon as I post this, they cut to a single shot of Lauren so they are using at least two cameras.

Their old set, especially the part containing the anchor desk, sucked.

Hopefully the new one looks nice.

When I watched Fox17 for weather and see that the anchors are in the newsroom, I thought must be getting a new news set which is time for seem that it has been over a decade like 12 or 13 years. That Fox17 has had the old set since the Tribune days.
