WFOR, the CBS O&O in Miami, has taken the wraps off its bright and airy new set.
The open and dynamic new set mirrors Primeview and BDI’s award winning design at KCBS, which won NewscastStudio’s 2016 local Set of the Year but with some added elements that are localized for the station.
The primary anchor area is wrapped in two 55” Primeview video walls (PRV55SNG01-SDI) , one directly behind the curved anchor desk and another at an angle camera left. The larger of the two spans 16 feet, while the smaller one comes in at about 12 feet wide.
The video arrays are positioned so they can be used as both as traditional cityscape backgrounds showcasing the Miami skyline while also serving as standup and topical backgrounds.
The design walls also can be shot both straight on and off-axis with both single and multiple talent, giving the station a variety of ways to utilize the video walls for storytelling.
