Holy Cow: New screen in control room!
« on: April 13, 2008, 10:57:37 PM »
There's a huge new screen in the control room. When I say huge, I mean MASSIVE! Are they going to be producing the HD shows from in there.

Pics/video to come later.

Edit: There are actually TWO massive screens, each suspended side-by-side above the front row of people in the room.

One of the control rooms (mini facility, used for weather updates) is HD ready right now, and there are plans to upgrade the current control rooms to HD, as well I believe there are a couple more rooms being built.

Could they be using a different control for some reason? (updating the one they usually use for EE?)

Do you remember if both control rooms had a camera in them and a TWC logo on the wall?
