Anderson Cooper's CNN 3D Pie Chart - Looking for video
Right Now | Me, Myself and I

Posted on 01/04/2008 3:29:14 PM PST by PureSolace

Today I was reading about Anderson Cooper's coverage of the Iowa Caucus and many people were talking about his magic 3D Pie Chart. Apparently CNN is trying out some new toys. I like new toys. I found some still images, but I'm looking for a movie showing off the tech. (Though I can imagine it in my head if I close my eyes. :) )

Better image here.

If anyone has a link to a video showing off this technology, I'd love to see it. :) Peace.

oops. You can’t see him using it in the above video, just the image on the ticker. Sorry.

Thank you steve’s video! :) I guess it’s better in theory. But it is funny how it blocks the talking heads. :) Cool new toy.

I saw it live last night. It was laughable and made Anderson Cooper look like an idiot. If this is CNN's response to Fox's high-tech, satellite-equipped election coverage vans, they're going to have to try again.

The graph image was supposed to be "suspended" in the air over that strange card that Cooper was holding, but it was clear that Cooper hadn't been briefed on how he was supposed to hold the card.

You have the best graphics! I just loved your red X sequence in the sunset thread.
