Why monitoring the multi-format delivery ecosystem starts with a holistic approach to the entire media supply chain.
We talk to Andy Rayner, CTO at Appear about their new VX software and the vital next evolutionary steps for remote contribution and content distribution in software first, private or public ‘cloud’ infrastructure.
Mark Roberts Motion Control (MRMC) is set for a busy time, showcasing its cutting-edge camera robotics and motion control solutions at two significant industry events. Kicking things off, MRMC will return to Cine Gear LA Expo in June alongside Camera Control, where we’re looking forward to connecting with creatives, technicians, and business professionals to share ideas and foster new collaborations. Directly following Cine Gear, MRMC will make its very first appearance at InfoComm®, where you can join us alongside Nikon group company RED Digital Cinema. The event will showcase examples of seamless workflows between MRMC, Nikon, and RED, demonstrating the collaborative solutions we can offer together.
Atomos is expanding its creator ecosystem with the StudioSonic Shotgun Mic, a compact yet powerful wireless and wired shotgun microphone designed for filmmakers, journalists, YouTubers, and production professionals. It’s the perfect match for Atomos’ Ninja and Shogun monitor-recorders, as well as professional cameras and recording devices.
A discussion of production network infrastructure and where the industry is in the evolutionary journey from SDI to IP with senior system architects within three of the most respected organizations in broadcast.
‘Monitoring & Compliance In Broadcast’ explores how exemplary content production and delivery standards are maintained and legal obligations are met. The series includes four Themed Content Collections, each of which tackles a different area of the media supply chain.
Part 2 contains four articles which discuss the challenges of monitoring delivery within a complex ecosystem that must encompass traditional OTA, OTT/Streaming services and increasingly, multi-format delivery to web sites, apps and social media platforms. We discuss how reliable delivery requires best practice monitoring of the entire media supply chain, multi-format workflows, the role of monitoring in monetization and accessibility requirements.
Here we look from the state of the art in microphones, to what the future may bring with the enticing theoretical potential of microphone arrays built using MEMS technology.
Welcome to Part 2 of ‘Live Sports Production’ - This multi-part series uses a round table style format to explore the technology of live sports production with some of the industry’s leading system designers. It is a fascinating insight into what is being done every day around the world.
Part 2 is an examination of the state of evolution of network infrastructure design. Here we discuss the progression from SDI to IP and why hybrid systems remain a popular approach. As production infrastructure, processing resources and the underlying networks required become ever more complex, powerful tools are required to plan, deploy and monitor so we discuss the need for Broadcast Controllers and Orchestration systems. We also discuss backhaul and the technology and services required to get content reliably and securely from venue to studio.
