Behind the scenes: WOOD TV8 GRAM studio

We're back downtown for ArtPrize 2012

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WOOD) - Once again this year, WOOD TV8 will be broadcasting every newscast during ArtPrize live from our studio at The Grand Rapids Art Museum.

WOOD TV8 moved downtown for ArtPrize 2011, and we've been planning for this move for months.

Miles of cable, months of planning, and hundreds of hours of labor had to happen before the signal hit the tower.

It took a small army more than a week to transform the space into a television studio. That work looks like organized chaos. But everything went exactly according to plan.

Watch Above: 24 Hour News 8's Steve Kelso took his camera to the studio Tuesday to see how it all came together.
