An “all-LED-lit” TV News studio
In 2011, Hubei Television offered HD TV broadcast on its flagship nationwide satellite TV station and 8 regional TV stations with a total of 260 hours of programs every week, accessible to 80 million viewers. In January 2013, Macostar finished an “all-LED-lit” studio lighting system for HBTV’s new 600m² production studio, which was built for high-definition live television recording and production of factual programmes such as news and talk shows.
As the 600m² Studio adopts an open concept design, the layout of lighting fixtures is very complex, and needs to be carefully planned and optimized, in order to give flexibility for live HD broadcast, without compromising camera angles during multi- camera setup.
Scope of work
Macostar is responsible for the supply and installation of lighting fixtures and motorised lighting truss system in the 600m² Studio of Hubei Television.
