The Tech Powering NBC News’ Election Coverage

Augmented reality graphics, new studios and new virtual sets will help make NBC News’ election night coverage stand out. As NBC News’ reporters and programs are preparing for election night, so are the tech teams at 30 Rockefeller Plaza with rehearsals and creation of graphics. To help deliver timely election results, analysis and pathways to victory, the NBCU News Group’s design, production and operations teams are using new and updated tools to enhance the storytelling of reporters, anchors and journalists on election night. “When you go to a Broadway play, you don’t go home humming the scenery. This is all about the music, the editorial,” said Marc Greenstein, NBCU News Group’s senior vice president of design, production and operations. “Our hope is our technology, our creativity, help explain the editorial better.” Check out our blog post here: https://nbcuacademy.com/election-nigh...
