1. No more Mark Holden – although the famous “touchdowns” was performed by the other judges

2. Additional performances by the bottom 3 contestants on the eviction night (Monday)

3. But the most significant change that we saw was the use of digital signage for communicating information to the viewers and internal staff. This was evident in the final show where 1 large screen and 4 other smaller screens were used in the tally room to display dynamic information. Also, if you were watching the final show, you probably noticed that at the Opera House, large screens were used to display the live performances and occasionally followed by the events sponsor ads.

I believe that it’s quite interesting to see broadcasting organisations using LCD screens to further increase advertising revenues whilst showing the performance on air.

Congratulations to the winner of this year’s Australian Idol (Wes) and good luck to all the other contestants.

Our question:
Have you seen any TV shows which embraces digital signage technologies?
