Studio for WPVI, ABC 6 Action News, that debuted in September 2024.

The updated studio features a rotating anchor desk with a seamless curved LED display and a multipurpose area used during morning newscasts. The design incorporates eight 1.2mm pixel pitch LED displays, a fully robotic camera system and a weather center with interactive touchscreens and multiple display zones.

Additional elements include an interview area, walk-and-talk spaces, and depth-enhancing background elements such as lower-resolution LED panels, color-changing lights, and diffused plexiglass accents.

For the project, WPVI turned to Broadcast Design International, which also helped the broadcaster with the previous studio in 2017
