The important thing to remember about virtual reality is the word "reality." The first 4 seconds show a simple virtual set supplied by our graphics hub. The dissolve at the 5 second mark brings us to that set as I re-imagined it, and we instituted as a much more realistic whole. Attention was paid to the make the lighting, the flooring and every component of the set look natural. It acted as our main set for our 'edgy' 5:30 newscast for a long time and I was fortunate to build many variations of it, along with many others for different shots and different talent.

From a period not so long ago when our News relied heavily on Ckey and unique virtual presentation, a quick turn production of a standard news package.

Using historical context and visuals to relate to a current story - immigration. Another day-of turn quick turnaround PKG.

Traffic reporter needs to tell a story with no time to actually shoot the story. Virtual set to the rescue.

Using elements from other projects along the road, I needed a virtual set for a #DriveSober special. This amalgamation lent the show a 'big', important tone.

A lot of information in this traffic reporter's script. How to present it in the 'virtual set' manner she requested proved a challenge on a tight turnaround, especially having to afford the bottom fourth of screen for a super and a bug.

Sports wanted an interesting way to combine talent, text and soundbites. With limited time and an all-in reporter, a virtual set was the answer.

From a period not so long ago when our News relied heavily on CKEY and unique virtual presentation, a quick turn production illustrating a fun social impact of Lady Gaga's Super Bowl performance.
