A five minute tour of BBC South Today studio in Oxford

[@robinvanags912]

After seeing in 2004, the studio used (at the time) for this at Southampton , it was much appreciated to have a personal look around, here in Oxford late-2019. As already said by someone - regrettable that this sub-region is not to be continued.

Hmm the tech here is obviously a fair bit behind the main BBC (where they use Mosart etc). A 25+ year old Aston, wow! (I guess they're like aint broke don't fix it) it's obviously gonna be SD right? Does that mean the news is HD but the overlaid graphics are actually SD?

[@deejayC]

The cameras used by the journalists in the field are HD, but once brought back into the building everything is downscaled to SD. The whole of the rest of the infrastructure is SD. (Including that ancient Aston).

02:06 02:07 What are all those different numbers for on the instant replay machine and which button do you have to press for the national headline bed?

[@moelester7527]

the answer to your second question is literally shown right there: it's the button that he pressed after pressing the play button.

[@moelester7527]

@@mrhammadmossop1988ul-haq I'd imagine they do, but I (and probably you) have never seen any other BBC One nation/region from inside, so I have no idea.

Sorry to hear this is all gonna be gone in November :(

[@mrhammadmossop1988ul-haq]

David I was wondering do you have a monitor for BBC Two in the control room?

[@moelester7527]

I'm assuming he obviously doesn't/didn't need it since BBC Two no longer has any English regions, just the two nations.

[@esconis5304]

Woah it's much smaller than I expected, and computers in the background are just an image?

[@deejayC]

Yes, the backdrop is printed on a vinyl, stretched across a light box

[@jacksugden8190]

Interesting, out of interest, what was the name of the equipment that played your jingles please?.

whats the etc ion lighting desk for i did not see any lights in the studio

[@deejayC]

There are plenty of lamps above the set (some tungsten fresnel spotlights, some soft lights) plus the LED strips in the set and desk, all of which are DMX fed from the lighting desk.

[@mariofan7213]
