I've been having a look on twitter recently about the relaunch and have seen a few behind the scenes pics and in one of them In a corridor going into the itv news studio I seen one part of the old Lt sofa is this a new one for the upcoming relaunch or just and old spare hanging about?

And also it seems they are moving studios I'm not sure if it's itv news or something else but I also seen something about a physical set?
And mentioning that the current jib in the itv news studio is going to studio 1 which correct me if i'm wrong is the old temporary 5 news studio?
They could be moving down to studio 1. And i know they have been piloting the new look in that studio!
And itv news also have a new jib in the current studio.

These are a few things I seen and thought I would share as it's not long to go now until the new look.

You could have just asked me all those questions when you read my Twitter feed!

I believe Lightwell are working on the new set. It may have some physical elements, but I expect it will still be mainly virtual.


It's virtual within virtual apparently! According to Jim Mann some months ago lol

How does that work?

You would have the set features like the desk, chairs, and screens etc. And then beyond the background screens with either the building, or skyline etc

Oh, okay. I think I get it....

So how is virtual within virtual different to virtual? Apologies if I'm being dumb!

I read today ITV News is moving studios from 2 to 1 for the rebrand? Does this have anything to do with it?

What are the technical differences between Studios 1 and 2?

Thanks but I thought you wouldn't be able to say anything?
And why are they moving studios is the other one bigger?
Is there anything going into that studio after Itv news moves out?
Thanks?

Was this studio 1 ?

Then the 'Theatre of News' was built in studio 2 ?

And so now it's back to studio 1 ? (The one that Five News were using until recently ?)

Jim Mann (Lightwell) tweets:

Luckily, ITV News nears completion and looks absolutely stunning in pilots. Fantastic team at ITN, been great to work with. Launches soon.

I'm busting with excitement now.

Does anyone reckon the music used in the We are ITV News promo could be a variation of the new music?
