Augmented reality is no longer a foreign term. It found its place in many fields thanks to its possibilities and one can say it makes a story being told complete. Therefore, it also found its place in television studio storytelling. Earlier, television news presentors mainly used big studio screens for their presentations, but with time passing by, augmented reality took its place and now presentors are surrounded with virtual 3D objects which explain the story they are telling. Even though the use of augmented reality in television studios is rising, researches about user experiences while watching it are almost non-existant. The main purpose of this paper is to do a research about how viewers experience a television news story told with the help of augmented reality. The first part of the paper explains how and why the television industry developed the need for augmented reality and what augmented reality is in theory. The rest of the paper describes the conducted research of the user experience of watching augmented reality in a television news presentation. The viewers watch two presentations that tell the same story, but each presentation is produced using different approaches: one is on a studio screen and the other is augmented reality. After watching the presentations, the viewers have given their opinions through a series of questions. The results of this research provide a clearer view about how augmented reality in a television studio is perceived and what should be done differently in the future in order to make it even more successful.
