The News Studio needed an upgrade to a tired and dated look. So BDI added a new anchor riser with a more modern looking anchor desk with color changing LED lighting and a clear plex top. The backgrounds are now all digital LED displays with the capability to add video and change looks as needed.

The center background can now feature current iconic landmarks the area is so famous for. BDI incorporated a number of standup venues for the talent to be up and about in the studio for featured stories. WTTG now has the tools to bring stories to the viewers in a new and dynamic way.
