--no politics inside--

As a computer graphics junkie, I'm very excited about the TV graphics unveiled tonight. So far:

NBC virtual graphs rise out of the floor in front of Ann Curry
CNN deputes a total Princess Leah [strike]hologram[/strike] tomogram^*. Live, w/ 35 HD cameras in a tent, the newswoman in Chicago shows up on stage with Wolf Blitzer. Very slick.

Since it's hard to see every trick on every station, I invite other KR viewers to share their cool graphics findings tonight. Thanks!

* Tomograms capture an image in 3D and then project an illusion of three dimensions. The technical feat was that CNN's tomogram was processed in real-time.

The hologram was cool, but Wolf Blitzer was a complete toolbag for actually telling viewers that the reporter wasn't there in the studio.

Like, no shit Wolf, we thought everyone at CNN was surrounded by a holy, white nimbus...

The Black Orchid Merchant Hall

The job that MaryBeth and crew always does with the Black Orchid trade hall and Absinthe booth deserves a nod this month. This event, they turned the Monastery building into a newly laid out trade hall draped in black and purple with wall hangings from Winterdark and images of wolves and faeries. The center table was decorated well and they did a good job of drawing attention away from the out of game fridge and microwave with cleverly placed fabric. It had a different feel and was done well. It made great use of limited space while housing many people. Pendarvin was also very well decorated again this month!
