KRGV-TV goes HD with updated set and graphics

As mentioned earlier on NewscastStudio, KRGV-TV, the Rio Grande Valley ABC affiliate, launched news in HD on 09/09/09. Along with the move to HD came an updated set and graphics package.

The refreshed set, designed by FX Group, features blue duratrans with the stations logo and a repurposed desk to match the new look. It’s unclear who completed this project at this time, but it appears to be an in-house refresh. The interview set was also updated for HD with a new monitor and new textures.

Graphics wise, KRGV-TV went with Giant Octopus’s WISH-TV syndicated graphics package. The package ties in well with the updated set to create a cohesive brand. Before and After pictures after the jump, and for more pictures and information visit the station’s Facebook page.
