A four-panel horizontal video array mounted on internally lit angled elements uses the right side of the open space where the staircase comes down from the floor above.
Next to this is an extruded video wall array that, during the network’s World Cup coverage, was appropriately used to showcase countries’ flags.
Tucked in behind the staircase, this video wall can be used as both a standalone element or additional background from other areas of the studio, including the anchor desk.
On the right of this wall is are five additional angled columns, a large video panel, all linked to the main set with an additional video ribbon, this one stacked two panels high.
In addition to the frosted backlit surfaces, the space’s walls, which create a variety of alcoves that adds depth to the space, some walls are also finished with a textured background.
