From April 17, you will be able to observe some visual and editorial changes on the M6 channel. Its directors have decided to carry out a facelift of the JT by bringing in particular more skins and augmented reality. An in-depth overhaul that aims to retain and retain a young and often very volatile audience.

New sections, a change of atmosphere and dressing, augmented reality... From April 17, viewers of the M6 channel will be able to notice many updates to its visual identity and its way of processing information. Television news is particularly at the center of this redesign, the "12.45" and the "19.45" will be improved thanks to several technological innovations.

For example, when the presenter talks about a film, he will find himself immersed in a movie theater thanks to the technique of augmented reality, an excellent tool to immerse the viewer in a specific visual universe. This technological progress cannot be brought about without some work, as Stéphane Gendarme, the director of information, explains to Le Figaro. "We will enlarge the screen in the background, which will allow us to have a virtual plateau of nearly 600 m², where augmented reality will hold a prominent place."

The new sections "We checked" and "Inspire us"

Another novelty has been thought by the sixth channel, that of the change of theme for each different section, enough to better identify them, especially since they will be more numerous this year. Like many media, fact-checking or verification of information will occupy an important place on the chain with the creation of the sequence "We checked".

Other sections will also be discovered, such as "Inspire us", which wants to be more optimistic in its treatment of information. For Stéphane Gendarme, it "will highlight positive initiatives, good news", because "it is important today to show what is going well". The reorganization of the visual identity of M6 thought by the artistic director Jean-Marie Julhes is the result of a year of work, and aims to maintain the loyalty of its audience, both young and volatile.
