'South Today', Boxing Day 1996

  • il y a 9 ans
Jane Hill presents the Boxing Day news from 'South Today' in 1996.

Over the Christmas period that year, bulletins came from Studio B whilst Studio A was set and lit for a new look to 'South Today' from early January. During this transition, visual continuity of the house style was maintained by using a still of a wide shot of the outgoing set, into which the presenter was inserted electronically. Studio B is significantly smaller than A, so some digital 'shrinking' of the shot of the presenter was also necessary to achieve the illusion, which was generally successful. A trail for the new look programme follows the bulletin.

Note also the absence of the legend 'South' on the Christmas BBC1 symbol.
