Well I am not a fan of the blue glass "environment". It seems visually quite harsh and busy. Can anyone capture the HD version in HD. Just so we can see all the detail.

I hope this style is only reserved for the "ident", and not for all the full-screen graphics. I also hope the studio colouring and lighting is made to match as the studio is quite light and has a different shade of blue, and this would stand out compared to the new newswall graphic and this "ident".


The HD version of the ident isn't very good quality on Anytime - it looks like a standard definition version (in fact it most probably is).


Wait until you see the coming up sequences, far superior to the current visuals!

It's not HD, but I just found this (0:47) Sky News HD ident. It's better quality than the previous ones.

I wasn't talking about the content available on Anytime - that comes via a different route and a different set of transponders to the EPG channels usually. I was talking about the broadcasts on 517. The source material may be the same - but the compression probably isn't.


The stuff on 517 and Anytime look exactly the same to me. Incidentally, Sky News HD and Anytime are currently on the same transponder.

Sky News HD is running at 13.8kb/s and Anytime at 12.3kbs/s

Pretty quick turnaround for the Sunrise set if it's going to be ready on Wednesday.

Adam saying in an interview with the Conservative blogger Iain Dale that they will re-do the Westminster offices for HD
Quote:
We've gone up from four people working in Westminster when we started to about 30 now. It's always changing - we're going to completely rebuild our offices for HD


He also says that Rupert Murdoch has no influence over him
Quote:
I've never been rung up by Rupert Murdoch. I'll be dropped from The Guardian's 100 most influential people in the media now! The truth is that in more than 20 years at Sky, I've probably been in the same room as Rupert Murdoch about half a dozen times. And I've probably had three conversations with him.


He also says that he feels he can gives his opinions to a certain extent as he has built up a trust with the Sky audience.

Where is this press release, I cant find one on the BSkyB corporate and Sky News Press Office sites, and I no longer have access to the Publicity images at image.net for BSkyB channels.
