Hello, everyone. I'm reporting live from the NATE MSL 2009/10. It's being held at the MBC Studios in Yeoido and after an hour of waiting time we've just been allowed into the press room. The set up is very, very different to normal and the 'Virtual Studio.' is actually a massive blue screen set up in front of our press area. We're not allowed to leave during the matches and it's going to be very odd working this event. Please wish me good luck!

Pre-Event/Virtual Studio Shots. This contains a spoiler for the look of the virtual studio;
The virtual studio doesn't look too bad at all...700 crazy fangirls/boys may be enough for some atmosphere going on if they have a direct live audio feed from the "live" audience at least.

There's nothing between us press and the gamers/virtual studio. It's basically an open blue screen surrounded by cameras plus the press room area.

oh, I was unaware you were in the same room as the players, I thought it was like a projection. It didn't make much sense at first. Thank you.

Massive update just finished so comment if you can please My bladder nearly exploded during game two because we're locked into the press room under security guard during the matches.

Same. Will probably get sorted out in a while when things have some time to calm down. I am really hoping to see something good come out of this MSL, and photos usually do quite nicely.
The shots of JD right after he won are very telling I think. I just hope Flash is OK...he seemed to be dealing with it exceptionally well in the awards ceremony, but still =(

I didn't know we were being streamed (LOL) No problem. It was really tense at first, but then really boring. I think MBC has probably (hopefully) learnt a valuable lesson from this about technology coming back to bite them in the ass.
