What's going to happen to the old building when they move to the HD building? Will the old building still be used as a backup, or will it be sold?
It will be converted to office space.

Also, it's worth noting that they are not moving to a new building. The HD studio is just an addition to the current building.

This is the first time since 2003 that a vertical LOT8s logo has been used!

So, will this be the permanent new look for the Lot8s logo?

I think Mike is using the projector and Steph is using the wall.

What are you talking about? They're not in the HD studio yet.

That's an effect of the key wall. He's probably getting a faint reflection of green on his clothes, causing it to be keyed out. You won't see anything on anyone's clothes since the projection will be coming from behind the screen.

Interesting. One of the ads for the new TWC|HD features the couple walking on the beach at sunset that has been prevalent in TWC openers and promos ever since the 2001 series of Weather Center openers. I guess they have that footage stored in HD?

Now with today's YWT comes the beginning of the HD Studio Countdown graphic that we'll likely see every single day until June 2 from now on.

Not necessarily. It could've been upconverted to HD.

All this is really cool after I saw this live last night (before I switched over to Penguins/Flyers Game 4 on Versus HD).
My only concern is that "past 12 hours" being too small on the HD style banner.

Why would the HD Star be used in non-HD areas? :huh:

And the answer is yes, the regular IS will be used
