TVC's Future
Mar 23rd, 2013, 10:27am
 
This blog from Anna Mallet (CEO BBC Studios and Post Production) describes the future plans for the (ex) BBC Television Centre.

"Innovation will remain central to the future studios at Television Centre.  When we return in 2015, the studio galleries will be updated with the latest technology and we’ll be investing in a fibre infrastructure for video transport and 10Gb ethernet as standard across all our areas for IPTV and streaming. We’ll also have brand new dressing rooms, green rooms and production offices."



Towards the end of her blog there are links to various other items, including a description of how some staff paid their tribute to the old place.


The dance routine may be found here.
and the description of how it was made and conceived by Jon Jacob is here.

"This in part explains why I ended up making the BBC staff tap-dancing tribute to Television Centre film published just a couple of days ago: it was an opportunity (maybe even an excuse?) to spend a long time pacing the many corridors and seemingly never-ending site to get unusual ‘behind-the-scenes’ footage of a building staff adore. This like that so many other colleagues have done over the past few months was an opportunity – forgive the morbidity – to pay our respects. To obtain some closure."
