Just a quick question - How do they do the bit at the start of Newsday?


are you talking about the split screen when the cameras move?

A few pages back this was discussed and it was revealed that it is a graphic rather than a live shot

The double shot of the screens is actually simulated - it's just a static shot of the screens with the two of them composited in.


Presumably the wide shot of the screens, which features the cameras whizzing around, is an actual shot of the screens, and then they cut to the graphic with screens super imposed?

Minor meltdown on BBC World News (The World Today) right now, during World Business Report... The program is flicking from one camera, to outputs, then to Rico Hizon and back.

Here we go again with Studio C.

EDIT: And then Naga suddenly shows up...

I believe so, based on what I've read on here that the whiz, and presenter shot from C are all live but the split screen is a graphic.

And I guess BBCWN had a difficult time to fill their next bottom-half hour bulletin because they cannot use the materials!

Am I the only person who prefers the old studio? N8 had a sort of character whereas Studio C just has become a bit boring and to me just seems to lack any personality.

I see World News Today are still using the night-time backdrop despite it being broad daylight outside. Although it won that poll of a small number of World viewers, I'm surprised they went with the London skyline backdrop as it's so time-sensitive. Not only is this odd for UK viewers on BBC Four, I wouldn't like to wake up in the morning somewhere in the world to be greeted by a presenter with a pitch-black backdrop.

Watching WHYS on YouTube they appear to have finally got rid of that stupid steadicam shot at the start and now just do a small pan and then cut to Ros.

Also does anyone know whether SWHYS is coming back?

Does anyone know what's that item pointed with the arrow that Naga Munchetty seems to like to put on her desk? Didn't notice other presenters using that device. Curious.

Looks like one of those special ergonomic computer mice.
