TV Novi Sad

When it was bombed for the first time (it was bombed 4 or 5 times)*, it was already evacuated (but operating from alternative places), so destruction was just pure bestiality.

Interesting thing about the bombing of TV Novi Sad was that the very first rocket hit editing room No. 1. According to blue print of the building (planned by Marconi) that should be the master room (heart of TV). What those people in Marconi company, who provided NATO with blue prints of the building, didn't know was the fact that in building process (for some reasons, known just to technicians of TV Novi Sad) that room rotated the place with editing room No. 1. So, in a way, we can speak of "surgical" precision... In this case at least.

Studio

     Studio. Hit by second rocket.

Office

Arrow is pointing to more or less the exact spot where my office table was. My department (set design) was in a kind of not permanent structure, hence no trace of the building.

Photos were taken in January 2002. TVNS doesn't have a money to destroy the buildings completely and to start building new. Because ruble is dangerous it is guarded 24/7 (although there's nothing to guard).

* It seems that it became a "reserve" target pilots used to get rid of bombs.
