I presume that the iPlayer will get an overnight refresh to enable this content to appear in a unique page.


That's exactly what they've done - today's episodes/lessons have already been uploaded to iPlayer

Don't know why an unofficial BBC Four logo is being used on the Bitesize website to promote the homeschooling offering across the BBC:

Looks a bit like BBC Local Radio.

And the old BBC NI logo when the new Reith version is used on the Bitesize catch-up page.

I've not really been at all familiar with BBC Bitesize - only knowing that it was the branding for educational segments. Watching the opening this morning (and the last couple of weeks on BBC Scotland), it really is quite a clean, clear style. I was also surprised to find out that the current look was introduced in 2018.

BBC Bitesize was going when I was in school over 20 years ago - used to be in two hour blocks overnight.

I see they've gone to some effort with the reflections in the floor, though the one for the presenter is a bit off.

I was thinking more Studio A should use this virtual set. Although I suspect it is probably adapted from the Studio A version of B that Marr uses.

I think that's a function of the Viz Virtual Studio tech that Dock 10 use. (The cameras are fed into the Viz box for keying, so talent reflections are possible (as the camera picture is available within the render engine), whereas in lots of other VR studios the backgrounds are rendered separately and the talent just chroma keyed over downstream of the VR render)

The system in Dock 10 adds a lot of processing delay (I've heard it's around 12 frames - or 1/2 second) which makes framing moving shots based on background elements a real art (you have to anticipate where the background elements will be and stop 'early')
