"Bulbs" are what you plant in a garden.

"Lamps" are the things they put in "Lanterns".

Pedantic? Maybe; but accuracy is a good thing.

I suggested something like this a few days ago if they adopted the national style titles and panned in instead of aerial shot!


The nationals camera move is usually a pan, track, depress, crab and zoom combined, which requires a person to be behind the camera AND A flat-ish floor.

BBC World don't have either of these in their newsroom, so they would not be able to do the crab and track element, though they could do a depress and zoom (as News 24 have in the past) - with pan if needed.


Any videos?

The bulletin this hour started with a rather fast shift of the camera zooming up towards Nisha Pillai after a long overhead shot. The very first story had a live interview with 2 correspondents one in New York and the other in Moscow but the location strap on the split screen was wrong, which was very obvious seeing the famous St Basil Cathedral behind and the soaring skyscrapers for the other. The split screen cut back to Nisha soon after and faded on with the correct location, with the tower and ticker fading in.

Nisha Pillai has done World News Today on the last couple of Friday's. I love her presentation style. Very unique.

Maryam Moshiri did the weekend shift around a month ago too. Gwennan Edwards is actually a World and Nwes 24 veteran and, as someone indicated above, is from the same "stable" as Mike Embley.

Anyone got any pictures of Gwenan on World?

I'm not surprised- Annita McVeigh got the weekend shift on News 24 which she had always been the main cover for for ages. But nice to see she's back in a job.
