Houston broadcaster KTRK-TV has been on the scene for 70 years and is known for community outreach as well as investigative journalism. It is the only major network affiliate in Houston to occupy its original studio facility. As a longtime Brightline customer, with over 60 Brightline fixtures in their Bissonnet Street location, the studio recently added to its Brightline complement.
Just last year they purchased 37 Brightline L1.2 variable white fixtures, eight L1.4 fixtures, and five Brightline Lupo Fresnels to replace existing fluorescent soft fixtures and augment their LED Fresnel inventory in the main news studio. This past June, new L1.2 and L1.4 fixtures with DMX control were installed and now light all of Studio B. The station has been eager to add functionality to Studio B, including expanding its chromakey capability to enable virtual set production. A large chromakey corner, lit by Brightline, is the start of a complete upgrade. Later plans involve an interview set and possibly a talent stand-up area.
