CNBC opens new London studio

Business news network CNBC has opened a new studio in London, reports Kevin Coy of News on News.

Coy writes, “The new studio accommodates 10 cameras and multiple presentation positions, giving CNBC anchors and journalists the ability to present from anywhere in the studio using a range of visual tools.  It includes one of the largest video walls in Europe, as well as an integrated digital media desk and a touch-screen display area.

“Central to the studio is its new video wall, which incorporates the CNBC Globe — set to become a signature feature of the network.  The animated globe provides a snapshot of the global markets, giving instant information on the health of each exchange.

“The main anchor desk has been designed to engage CNBC’s influential guests in active conversation, while inviting viewers in to the heart of the dialogue.

“One of the most exciting elements of the studio is the Digital Desk area, which will monitor and integrate digital media into broadcast programming.  It will enable our journalists to interact with our viewers and the digital community during live programming using CNBC.com, blogs, websites and newswires in real-time.”
