NRK’s national and local newscasts feature the revamped look, which features revolving circles, lens flares and carefully selected footage in a deceptively simple, yet effective package.

Scenically, two illuminated pods front a rear projection screen that mimics the graphics package. Raised backlit elements flank the screen, glowing shades of blue.
