FX Group wins two Broadcast Design Association Awards

NEW YORK — FX Group, a Florida-based set design and construction company, was recently honored with two 2006 Broadcast Design Association North American Design Awards.

FX Group received a gold honor for its set design for Philadelphia’s WTXF-TV and a silver recognition for its work at WESH-TV in Orlando, Fla. The awards were announced at BDA’s annual conference held in New York City June 20-22.

WTXF’s windowed, streetside studio includes elements of the city’s famed Benjamin Franklin Bridge, interchangeable, lighted plexiglass panels and several flexible standup locations. The set also includes a flat panel screen that rotates to allow for multiple-angle shots and an interview and demonstration area.

WESH’s set boasts multiple rear projection and large-scale digital light processing screens used as both background and storytelling elements. The set also includes a large, working weather center with large-screen monitors, work areas and several anchor positions.

Both sets were designed and built at FX Group’s 50,000-square foot design and production facility in Ocoee, Fla. The facility allows for close communication between the company’s design, account management and fabrication teams and includes an in-house wood shop, metal shop, sign department, paint shop and laminating department.

With these two awards, FX Group’s résumé now includes a total of five Emmy awards and five BDA awards.

  • 2005 BDA Award: KOCO-TV, Oklahoma City
  • 2004 Emmy Award: KUSA-TV, Denver
  • 2003 Emmy Award: KRON-TV, San Francisco
  • 2003 BDA Award: KRON-TV, San Francisco
