A large 4K video wall centers the new TVE News set

The heart of the new set is a large video wall with 4K resolution, the first to be implemented in a news studio in Europe. Coinciding with the launch of the new set in Studio A1 in Torrespaña, TVE has adapted the header, the tunes and the graphic line of its news programs.

This Tuesday, March 18, the TVE Newscasts premiere their new image. In addition to the scenery, which features two large high-resolution video walls, the header, tunes and graphic line have been adapted. This aesthetic and technological renovation will be seen during the Second Edition of the News.

The new set, built in the same space as the previous one, Studio A1 in Torrespaña, is an evolution of the previous image. The dominance of white colors and the simplicity of volumes is maintained, and two large mobile screens that will surround the image set are incorporated as the main novelty. An element with its own personality that will promote the viewer's immersive experience in the news.

Videowall 4K

The heart of the new set is a large video wall with 4K resolution, the first to be implemented in a news studio in Europe. The installation of the new giant screen has been carried out Telefónica through a contract of 757,000 euros (VAT included). The contract, awarded at the end of December 2013, consisted of two lots: the purchase of LED screens to create the video wall for 565,152 euros and the installation of a control and content generation system for 192,000 euros.

The signals of the new 4K video wall are powered by the TDControl system of Run which allows you to reposition the different elements with which each background is created depending on the framing used on camera. In this way, both the director and the mixer can open different compositions on the big screen, assign different video sources to each of the two parts of the video wall and fill it with graphics and data that they correlate manually or manually. automatic.

This screen has a mobile part on a remotely controlled rail, which allows different positions and framing planes.

The new set has seven robotic cameras: four on a pedestal, a microcamera housed within the set itself, a CamRail on a curved tracking shot and a hot head (Scorpio MiniHead). As they are robotic, the presence of operators on the set is not necessary, and all the cameras can be moved from a console located in the camera control, also programming their movements in shots with great dynamism and visual enhancement.
