Rachael Ray's new 9000sq-ft studio cooks up delectable sights and sounds

摘要

King World Productions' "Rachael Ray" is a bona fide syndication hit. And studio landlord EUE Screen Gems Studios in New York City couldn't be happier. The show is taped in a sophisticated 9000sq-ft studio that EUE created specifically for "Rachael Ray" in its 125,000sq-ft four-floor Midtown Manhattan complex. The EUE design team worked with Rich Cervini, vice president of production and technical operations for King World, to make a home for "Rachael Ray." Timing was critical. In a mere three months-from demolition to first shoot day-the original Studio 6A and its control room were gutted and refitted with all digital equipment, new lighting equipment and an innovative, rotating audience platform.
