The transition to fiber infrastructures, reliance on server-based replay systems, and whether a truck can handle 1080p/60 (and 3D as well) have been some of the categories that have arisen over the years. But this year’s Mobile Sports Production Yearbook may signal the beginning of an end of an era in which remote operations are truly remote. Both the CEO Roundtable and the Engineering Report reflect an evolving remote-production universe that will find the trucks in the field increasingly tied to studio and editing operations thousands of miles from the sports venue. As Jerry Steinberg of Fox Sports notes, “We seem to be at the end of baseband video as a way to move images.” So what does a move to “beyond baseband” mean for the remote-production industry? A shift to moving video via IP and fiber and as files and packets will transform trucks from production hubs to storage and signal-transport hubs. In the near term, don’t expect front-bench and “mission-critical” staffers to be located in a broadcast studio, but there is definitely an opportunity to have an army of staffers thousands of miles away from the venue creating more-dynamic show opens, closes, and highlights, as well as better graphics and effects. How will that impact the truck specifications that will be important in finding the right unit for the right job? Concepts like signal throughput, server storage capacity, and IP connectivity will rise in importance. And there is at least the potential to get by with a smaller production truck because some personnel could work remotely. Whether the producers and directors can handle working in a smaller truck is another issue altogether. For now, the industry is taking baby steps in moving remote operations “beyond baseband.” But those steps have been successful and have resulted in a better on-air product, better archives back at the broadcast facility, and cost saving in terms of travel and personnel. The biggest obstacle now is that the backhaul circuits that connect the remote-production facilities to broadcast operations have not quite caught up to allow “beyond baseband” to extend to events that don’t take place at major sports venues. But companies like HTN and Level 3 continue to explore business opportunities related to sports venues, such as college stadiums and arenas — moves that could greatly make “beyond baseband” a broader reality. All those changes may, eventually, change the very nature of the Mobile Sports Production Yearbook and the always valuable Gearbase directory found at the end of the publication. But the demands of the here and now have sports broadcasters and the vendors found within these pages focused squarely on such issues as moving to embedded audio, 1080p, and 3D. The good news? Despite a still struggling economy, many of the remoteproduction–service providers are bullish on future opportunities. There is a continuing uptick in demand for HD-capable production units, financing is becoming (slightly) easier to get for new builds, and technological advances have allowed trucks to pack more power into a 53-ft. trailer than ever before. And that is good news indeed for all involved. Ken Kerschbaumer, SVG Editorial Director Despite fluctuating fuel costs, tight credit, and labor strife, the industry is still growing CEO Roundtable Truck Vendors Remain In High Gear By Jason Dachman T hanks to sky-high ratings and a series of lucrative new rights deals, the sports-production industry has seen a surge in both revenue and overall growth over the past year. Even with labor problems hitting both the NFL and the NBA in 2011, demand for HD mobile units by national networks and regional sports networks (RSNs) around the country continues to rise. As a result, several mobile vendors have rolled out new HD trucks this year, nearly all booked solid, and plenty more are planned for 2012. Although the excitement surrounding 3D sports production has subsided, new HD avenues like Web and mobile streaming and mid- to low-level college sports offer potentially valuable new revenue sources for mobile-production providers. “I think the industry is definitely in a good place,” says Game Creek Video President/owner Pat Sullivan. “For reasons that honestly escape me, the ratings have been amazing in almost every sector. When ratings are high, our customers can charge advertisers more, which allows them to aggressively invest in rights. They obviously need [mobile vendors] to take advantage of those rights, and that is where we can benefit.” Nonetheless, challenges remain for an industry that is often at the mercy of conservative financiers, spastic fuel prices, and the troubling labor issues of professional sports leagues like the NBA and NFL. “The future of our business looks extremely bright — until you factor in a pro-sports strike or lockout,” says Mobile Television Group GM/co-owner Phil Garvin. “That’s just the nature of the business. So part of our job is to anticipate them. A loss of dates [due to a lockout] is a horrendous blow, but we’ve planned for it.” Bigger Rights Deals Means More HD Regardless of the NFL’s and NBA’s labor struggles, the demand for live sports television has never been higher, a fact that is most apparent in the recent whirlwind of big-money rights deals between leagues and networks. Networks are investing in sports at a record clip on both the national level — see ESPN’s eight-year, $15.5 billion Monday Night Football pact — and regional level — for example, Time Warner Cable’s 20-year, reportedly $3 billion deal with the Los Angeles Lakers to launch two RSNs. This increased investment has resulted in increased need for HD resources, especially in the RSN sector, where fans now demand the same HD quality seen in national network telecasts. “The networks have been doing big HD trucks for a while, but now you also have regional nets doing full HD,” says Alliance Productions GM Craig Farrell. “I think the industry is definitely in a good place....The ratings have been amazing in almost every sector.... Our customers can charge advertisers more, which allows them to aggressively invest in rights.” —Pat Sullivan, President, Game Greek Video Mobile Sports Production Yearbook 2012 17 CEO Roundtable “That regional work is growing, and, as a result, people are building truly regional HD trucks. That is where the biggest growth is in the industry right now.” Nowhere is this trend more apparent than in college sports, where the market’s crown jewel, football, has caused a tectonic shift in conference alignment, as well as a seemingly endless string of multimillionand often billion-dollar rights deals and conferencenetwork launches. As a result, football games that previously called for SD trucks now demand HD units, and conferences and schools are often willing to deal with the lowest bidder. “The biggest trend we are seeing is that the events that were in SD a year ago — mostly college — are now asking for HD trucks,” says Garvin. “The problem with that is, they don’t have the budgets that the high-profile shows do. These clients are asking for HD trucks for SD prices. It is our job to try to accommodate that. If you can’t figure out how to do formerly SD shows in HD for a similar price, then someone else will.” Mobile-production vendors are also beginning to peel back another layer in the college-sports market, beyond top-tier football, as conference- and school-specific networks like the Big Ten Network, the Longhorn Network, and the Pac-12’s soon-to-be launched conference and regional networks become popular. “The big networks and conferences have billions of dollars tied up in rights to televise and distribute college sports events,” says Sullivan. “But they are probably only doing 20% of the inventory they have the rights to. So that extra 80% is going to have to be done somehow. It might be done on a low budget with a few students on a streaming show, but I think there are huge opportunities for our business to look at that and see if we can take advantage. “If you look at the long-term time spans that these conference packages are running,” he continues, “they are clearly going to be all-HD at some point in time soon. It’s incumbent on guys like us to create a platform that is efficient for doing those lowerend events in HD. Otherwise, we risk them taking a different route entirely.” Checking in on 3D At CES 2010, the excitement surrounding 3D sports and 3D production could not have been higher, with plans announced for three new networks: ESPN 3D, DIRECTV’s n3D, and Sony/Discovery/IMAX’s 3net. And, although the technology and strategy behind 3D sports production have progressed by leaps and bounds, interest from consumers and broadcasters seems to have waned. 22 Mobile Sports Production Yearbook 2012 “The buzz of 3D just is not what it was two years ago,” says Farrell. “There are not as many clients asking for 3D because they think 3D is the next big thing. Instead, everyone is on their heels now waiting to see what happens. I don’t think 3D is dead, but I think the big 3D push came a little too early. The truck companies and [the technology vendors] are making money on 3D, but I don’t think the broadcasters or pretty much anyone else is making money on it yet.” CE Support Nonetheless, consumer-electronics companies looking to sell 3D sets — notably, Sony, Panasonic, and LG — have kept 3D sports production alive during its infancy by sponsoring 3D networks and 3D one-off events. This has allowed 3D remote production to mature under the supervision of vendors NEP (which has two 3D units dedicated to ESPN 3D and n3D) and All Mobile Video (Epic is used primarily for entertainment shows). “We are extremely happy about the relationship we have with ESPN and DIRECTV in supporting their 3D efforts and definitely believe there is a future there,” says NEP Supershooters President Mike Fernander. “Look what happened with ESPN carving out 3D as part of the Monday Night Football deal. I think that is an indication that people see this as a long-term market. Will it look exactly like it does today? Probably not, but I think there definitely is a future for it.” Work Stoppages Mean New Challenges Network and mobile vendors alike narrowly avoided a potentially disastrous scenario when the NFL owners and players finally inked a new labor agreement in July. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said of the NBA, which has already lost a significant chunk of the season to a prolonged lockout. While every truck company does its best to plan for work stoppages, each has its own strategy. Mobile TV Group, for example, allocates a small portion of the revenue from every show to a “rainyday fund.” With cash reserves on hand, MTVG has pledged to its employees that there will be no layoffs as a result of the NBA lockout. “I realize that work stoppages hurt everyone, but there are few other industries that are hit as hard [by a lockout] as the mobile-production industry,” says Garvin. “We have payments on our trucks, and those payments don’t stop just because we just lost a bunch of NBA or NFL dates. We still have to make those payments every month.” Game Creek and NEP, among others, do their best to rebook trucks on alternative events, but, in CEO Roundtable ‘“I realize that work stoppages hurt everyone, but there are few other industries that are hit as hard [by a lockout] as the mobileproduction industry.” —Phil Garvin, GM Mobile Television Group the end, there is no way to make up for 100% of the revenue lost. “After looking at the [2004-05 NHL lockout] and initially thinking it was going to be absolutely devastating, clients ended up finding alternative programming to fill their airtime,” says Sullivan. “Was it as lucrative as doing a full NHL slate? No. And that’s something that we have to expect. But I believe that, if there is a long-term NBA work stoppage, there will be alternative programming that will prevent us from just getting zero revenue out of the whole situation.” The biggest concern for many companies during a work stoppage is the impact that a major influx of available trucks will have on the market’s supply and demand dynamics. “The loss of NBA dates doesn’t hurt us much because we don’t do a whole lot,” says F&F Productions founder/CEO George Orgera. “What is going to hurt us is that there are going to be a lot of extra trucks around looking for work and competing for those middle-of-the-week one-offs that are our gravy business.” The F Words: Fuel Prices and Financing Among the biggest concerns for several mobileproduction companies over the past three years has been an inability to obtain financing to build new trucks and the chaotic price fluctuation of diesel fuel. The remote-production industry was hit especially hard by the recession of the late 2000s. Companies suddenly found themselves unable to raise funds to build new trucks and, often, to pay for the trucks already on the road. Since then, the truck-financing landscape has leveled off but has yet to return to the glory days of the mid 2000s. “It’s not as easy as it was in 2007, but it’s definitely getting better,” says Corplex President Scott West. “For our new truck, Chromium [rolled out in September], it took a lot longer to put the dollars together in order to do it. You’ve seen more people building. It’s not crazy building, but they are building. That is up from basically no building in 2009.” With banks and private financiers taking a far more conservative approach to the industry, smaller, younger truck companies face major roadblocks in their efforts to make the HD leap. 28 Mobile Sports Production Yearbook 2012 “Smaller companies are now having troubles with financing,” says Farrell. “The same deals that financiers made available before are no longer out there. They want guarantees and do not want to build a truck on [speculation]. That is definitely hindering the rollout of new HD units and the overall transition from SD to HD. We have a couple companies who are trying to make the move to HD, but it’s not that easy.” Once the new trucks hit the road, it is more expensive than ever to transport them from venue to venue. Just like the consumers who watch the sports they produce, truck companies have been hit hard at the pump. Although the cost of fuel has leveled off slightly in recent months, the threat of a sudden jump continues to plague mobileproduction companies, which often face hundreds of miles between events. “The [cost of fuel] is key,” says West. “We are trying to be smarter about what jobs we take and how we take them. We don’t typically take a job out west [Corplex is based in Lake Bluff, IL] unless we’re contracted or we can put enough shows together to make it worthwhile. So, yes, it’s a factor but not nearly as much as it was at its peak a few years ago.” The Bottom Line Is Up Even with fluctuating fuel costs, a conservative financing landscape, and tumultuous labor situations, the mobile-production industry is in far better shape than it was three years ago. With ratings, ad revenue, and rights investments reaching new heights, major networks and RSNs are more willing than ever to spend on remote-production resources, opening the door for mobile-production companies to boost revenue and continue to expand and upgrade their fleets. “I’m not sure about the [immediate future] of the overall economy, but I think sporting events are something that people are always going to want to watch,” says West. “The demand in our industry is going to be strong for quite a while, so I’m very optimistic about the next few years.” Additional reporting by Brandon Costa Production units continue shift to network-based infrastructure Engineering Report Truck Design: IT Settles In By Ken Kerschbaumer R emote-production-facility providers across the country, and around the globe for that matter, continue to see truck design and engineering move from a video-based to an IT-based environment. “The truck of the future is definitely about being connected,” says Jerry Steinberg, EVP of operations and technology, Fox Sports. “We seem to be at the end of baseband video as a way to move images and sound. As the signal flow becomes IP-based and trucks are connected to studios, they can move signals in a much different way.” There is little doubt that today’s trucks have become the equivalent of large-scale IT networking environments. First, there are the EVS servers used for replay and camera recording. More and more EVS units, despite their high cost, are making their way into vehicles as tape becomes a thing of the past. And most of the other tools — the production switcher, the graphics and editing systems, audio gear — are computer-based. And all those tools require additional IT-based networks on board. WiFi, Ethernet, and other means of connectivity can often require today’s engineers to juggle more than 10 networks. And, with operators in the truck increasingly looking to use those networks to check e-mails or surf the Web, it is important to protect mission-critical functions from outside users. As much as IT is changing the truck infrastructure, it is also changing what can be done out of a single remote-production facility. Fox Sports, for example, now has EVS servers at its studio operations in Los Angeles, pulling in camera signals from EVS servers in the remoteproduction unit at the network’s top NFL game Today’s mobile production units are almost unrecognizable from a decade ago, with digital and IP-based workflows. each week. The goal? To allow the editors creating highlight packages access to different camera angles instead of just the line cut of the game. To Tom Sahara, SVP of engineering and operations, Turner Sports, tying remote and studio operations together is the Holy Grail of remote broadcast production. “It’s about everything related to what is happening at the venue,” he says. “If there is a milestone or league record [about to be broken] and Mobile Sports Production Yearbook 2012 33 Engineering Report there is a need for archive footage, the con​nectivity allows the editor to search the library at headquarters, find a clip, and transfer it back to the remote.” Reaching that Holy Grail will have a ripple effect on studio operations, reducing edit sessions because more work can be done in the field. And producers will finally be able to search for content at their own convenience, rather than requiring material to be loaded into an editing system. But there are still issues at the regional level, says Ken Stiver, VP of engineering/operations, Mid-Atlantic Sports Network. “We don’t have connectivity in every venue to send files back and forth, and getting those pipes into venues is difficult.” Sahara says the use of larger IP pipes also is transforming some of the traditional workflows, such as creating melt tapes or drives and sending physical media back to a broadcast facility for the archive. “Outside of the hours of the telecast, those large pipes can do file transfers and be actively managed,” he observes. “So, on the truck side, we need to build that bridge that converges the broadcast side with the digital properties. We will produce the program and check a box where it is going to and what format it needs to be in, and then a software application will determine what the final product is.” As much as IP pipes are changing the hardware and software in a truck, they are also changing the skill sets of engineers. Says Game Creek Video President/owner Pat Sullivan, “There has been a complete transition from a traditional broadcast engineer when I started in this business in 1998 to guys that are IP- and network-savvy and solve problems by using the networks and IP.” Perhaps the biggest indicator that 3D is on its way to sports-TV relevance is ESPN’s progression toward a combined 2D/3D production model. Long viewed as the Holy Grail in the quest for cost-effective live 3D sports production, the single-truck 2D/3D setup uses one crew and relies on the left-eye feed from the 3D show for the primary 2D telecast. Casually referred to as 5D, this model has been used by ESPN for X Games, Little League World Series, NBA and college basketball, and several boxing matches. “5D gets much closer to the end objective, which is Game Creek Video’s Kevin Callahan has seen rising demand for producing multiple shows out of a single mobile unit. to be able to produce a 2D/3D show at the same price that you can produce 2D,” says NEP Supershooters President Mike Fernander. “And without finding a model like that, you’ll never get there. The question is, at what events are they willing to compromise the 2D production in order to do a 3D production and to what degree? I think, over time, there is going to be a blend of the two that will eventually become a single production. ESPN has gone a long way in doing that.” However, with the exception of NEP and All Mobile Video, no U.S. truck companies have invested in a 3D truck. Much of the industry’s trepidation is due to concern that consumer-electronics companies may not always be there to cover the steep cost of an independent 3D production. “The CE manufacturers are pushing this, and, if that money goes away, then so does 3D,” says F&F Productions founder/CEO George Orgera. “If they’re not there to pay the bills, it’s not going to happen. Our trucks are capable of doing it if you just add some 3D rigs, but we see no reason for F&F to jump in there right now.” Sullivan seconds that notion, saying he prefers to invest in alternative up-and-coming truck technologies like 1080p and 3G. “There is no economic model for 3D to exist other than through “Every truck designer is dealing with legacy formats, and the question is, when can we make them go away?” George Hoover, CTO, NEP Broadcasting 36 Mobile Sports Production Yearbook 2012 Engineering Report support from [CE companies]. We have chosen to focus more on 3G and 1080p because I think there is a long-term model for that to pay for itself.” Content creation for interactive TV services and Web streaming are also impacting truck design and infrastructure. Game Creek Video’s production unit at the U.S. Open golf championship is used by ESPN and DIRECTV to create both an interactive TV service, which allows viewers to choose from different cameras around the course, and Web-streaming coverage. “We now do three or four broadcasts out of one set of production trucks,” says Kevin Callahan, Game Creek Video’s engineer-in-charge for the Fox Sports mobile units. “At U.S. Open golf, the majority of our truck was dedicated to the DIRECTV U.S. Open mix channels and the Internet streaming. And they looked like traditional shows; you would walk into the truck and have no idea that it was segmenting things. They all looked like full productions, with a second control room operating in tape release and a third control room for a third show.” As trucks begin to be used for more than one production, there is also the potential for encoders, which repackage the video and audio signals for delivery straight to Websites and mobile devices, to reside in production trucks. Sullivan says that, so far, remote-production service providers have avoided that move. “Those encoders can be very temperamental, and our guys have enough on their plate without having to deal with that.” More Feeds Than Ever As consumer viewing habits drift towards laptops, tablets, and smartphones, the mobile-production industry is presented with an intriguing new revenue stream. However, up to this point, Webcast and multiplatform distribution has consisted of little more than a secondary crew and setup in a B unit. “I can’t think of an event that we’ve done out of a mobile unit that went straight to Web and did not have a television element,” says Fernander. “Now, do I think that will never happen? I never like to say never. It’s already happening in other markets — for entertainment, premieres, talk shows, and so on. I think sports could potentially get there, especially for college sports. But, to date, I just haven’t seen it.” However, streaming isn’t the only additional outlet that now falls under the umbrella of your average mobile unit. Home and away feeds, a clean and/or dirty feed for the league, international feeds, isolated camera angles, a Spanish or second-language feed, and a host of others are quickly becoming necessary components of a typical production. “Having different outlets for the same content has 40 Mobile Sports Production Yearbook 2012 The ability to interconnect with fiber-based venues is top-ofmind for many truck design and engineering teams. really increased the demand for mobile resources within the compound,” says Corplex President Scott West. “That is definitely a good thing for the industry because the more outlets there are, the more infrastructure and people you need at the compound to handle programming. The influx of new-media needs into the remote-production environment makes truck designers ready to leave some of the legacy formats behind.” Says NEP Broadcasting CTO George Hoover, “Every truck designer is dealing with legacy formats, and the question is, when can we make them go away? In 1998, trucks would support stereo or maybe Dolby Pro Logic, but now they have to support 16 embedded audio streams, discrete audio signals, AES audio, analog audio, MADI audio, and maybe Cobra Net audio.” When it comes to easing operations, one of the major trends in engineering is “embedded” signal transport, whereby the audio and video signals travel together. The reason is fairly simple: recording devices like EVS servers simply don’t have enough independent connectors to handle discrete transport of each audio channel. While there may be interest in eliminating a video infrastructure that supports analog audio, sometimes Engineering Report it is the only way to move the video signal. But, when the day comes that analog support is left behind, there are benefits besides less complex signal transport. “We are longing for that day so we can get weight out of the truck,” says Hoover. Reducing truck weight to less than 80,000 lbs. is only part of the equation. Trucks also need to meet increasingly tough emissions standards. “Green tractors weigh more than the old ones,” Hoover points out. “And everybody is having to address the new emissions standards.” For example, taking a truck to Hawaii for NEP meant making sure it was “green-certified” by California because it needed to reach the ports there. The one upshot is that some of the changes, such as moving to LED lighting, is having a positive impact. “LED is great as it saves space and has less heat,” says Hoover. Riding the Technology Curve The move to IT is also speeding up the equipmentreplacement cycle. “Nothing we put in will last more than five years, with the exception of the audio console and maybe other equipment, like lenses,” says Hoover. “But everything else will be new, like EVS servers or a new version of the production switcher.” Also being switched out now? Older monitors. All of F&F Productions’ trucks, for example, have been upgraded to virtual monitor walls, according to Orgera. “GTX-16 already had a virtual monitor wall, but we switched out the 15, 14, and 12 to virtual monitor walls and then put 15’s LCD monitor wall in 11,” he says. “I think [virtual monitor walls] are an absolute must in every truck we build. We are getting rave reviews out of these Boland monitors and the Evertz [multiviewers] that we have for the monitor wall. [Clients] can get whatever [video source] they want where they want it and how they want it. You just can’t do that with an LCD wall. Next year, we may put a virtual wall in 11 as well.” The high-speed–camera market is another hot one, and F&F has its eye on the Ikegami NAC super-slo-mo that will be available early next year, Orgera says. “It acts like a real camera but also has full super-slo-mo [capability]. I know one of the networks has demoed it a couple times, and they’re just raving about it.” Hoover thinks the super-slo-mo market should be sorted out within the next two or three years. All the camera manufacturers now offer double-speed 44 Mobile Sports Production Yearbook 2012 recording as a standard feature, “but that may be too little too late for those who have already added 100-times cameras,” he opines. “The world loves high-speed cameras.” As for next-generation delivery formats like 3D and 1080p, although the trucks have a 3G routing infrastructure that can move the signals, nobody on the client side is ordering 1080p facilities, and the 3D format continues to be a niche product for ESPN and events like the US Open tennis championship and The Masters golf tournament. “There is a price delta on 1080p, depending on how you choose to make the capital purchases,” says Hoover. “So one has to look if it is worth the extra $500,000 to be 1080p-capable if no one wants to use it. Or do you need the extra routing capacity to handle a long-term contract?” Adds Orgera, “We’re hearing more and more about 1080p, and we’re going to be updating GTX15 either next year or the year after with a Kayenne switcher and make it 1080p. All cameras on 16 are 1080p, but the switcher and EVS have to be updated.” One thing is certain: no matter how closely tied the remote facilities are to the studio operations, don’t expect producers and those responsible for telling the story of an event to be comfortable working anywhere but at the site of the event. “At the level of what we do for a network show, there is no way to do it remotely,” says Sahara. “Once you have all of the camera and audio people out there, you might as well [have the rest of the team] out there.” Adds Steinberg, “What we do is tell stories, and producers and directors need to be able to talk to team management and be on-site to meet with teams or go to the practice facility. Sitting in L.A. while trying to cover a game in Green Bay does not help tell the story.” That said, Sahara notes that camera and audio signals can be sent from smaller sports events to a broadcast-operations center, provided a limited number of cameras are used. “Those shows are not following the storylines to the extent that network shows are,” says Sahara. “So there will be opportunities to bring feeds back to a central studio for production.” But, even at a regional level, those opportunities are limited, though with increasing technical complexity. “I never see that day happening, even on smaller events,” says Stiver. “Even if you do a small show, you still need someone there.” Additional reporting by Jason Dachman new truck Profiles This section of the Yearbook represents a slight shift in direction, putting the focus squarely on the providers’ latest and greatest trucks.

Mobile Sports Production Yearbook 2012 49 Profiles CBC Mobile Productions Infinity To Give Small Shows The Big-Production Treatment By Karen Hogan F or CBC Mobile Productions, the timing could not have been more ideal. In January, the company will roll out Infinity, the latest addition to its fleet, after a perfect storm of opportunity made adding a truck possible, economical, and necessary. 54 In early 2011, CBC was approached by a Montrealbased truck vendor looking to sell a small mobile unit, which had relatively new all-HD equipment. At the time, CBC was leasing three 53-ft. expando SD trucks, including a 2006 Gerling-built trailer. “We said, here’s an interesting opportunity to get a great deal on used HD equipment and get a trailer that’s actually fairly new for a great price,” says Dale Smith, director, CBC Mobile Productions. With the lease on the SD mobiles set to expire, CBC exercised an end-of-lease option to purchase them, having already decided to move forward on purchasing the small HD unit. Of the three SD trucks bought by CBC, one was decommissioned to be sold as a rack-ready 53-ft. expando; another is being kept in service. The third truck, the 2006 Gerling , is currently being converted from SD to HD. It is called Infinity. “We created a build of an HD truck at half the cost of the Évolution truck we built a year ago,” said Smith. “Évolution and Infinity have very similar layouts and engineering functionality.” The 53-ft. expando features an Evertz EQX router, a Grass Valley Kalypso switcher, and a 48-multilayer Calrec Artemis audio console with Bluefin technology. Chyron’s HyperX3 and Lyric Pro and a Harris Inscriber G3 will drive graphics for Infinity, and two six-channel EVS XT[2] servers will provide replays. The truck will also house two HDCAM and one HDCAM SR decks, XHub[2], XFile2, DigiBeta, Beta SP/SX, DVD, and Sennheiser, Crown, and Sony microphones. Equipped with six Sony HD cameras, and Canon and Fuji lenses, Infinity is uniquely positioned to give a large-production feel to smaller events. “What we’re basically doing is bringing a sixcamera truck onto the marketplace [that] has the Mobile Sports Production Yearbook 2012 Infinity is still a work in progress, with plans to bring the mobile unit online in December and roll it out in January. real estate of our 53-ft. expando trucks,” explains Smith, “[for] production companies [that] only require four to six cameras and a couple EVS units but don’t want to go into a smaller truck.” Currently being integrated and wired by Diversified Systems in Santa Clara, CA, Infinity will come online in December and be put into full service in January. While the truck has the functionality to build on and can be expanded for larger productions, CBC sees Infinity as a large truck for smaller, budget-conscious productions. “Too often, we see, in our industry, clients go into a midsize HD mobile and overutilize the resources of that truck, not only from a space [perspective] but from an engineering point of view,” explains Smith, “whereas we’re bringing a truck on the market that’s not going to cost the same as a large HD unit but allows us a lot of flexibility to handle the small-budget shows and build on it for the large-budget shows. This way, we bring the best of both worlds to our clients in one mobile.” CBC MOBILE PRODUCTIONS 866.929.9995 www.cbc.radio-canada.ca/mobile Official logotype 09_09_30 Profiles Corplex Chromium Hits the Road Ready for the Future By Brandon Costa C 60 orplex President Scott West has been so pleased with his fleet’s second HD unit, Iridium (introduced in 2008), that he easily could have built an exact copy to help handle the increased work load headed his company’s way. However, future-proofing Corplex’s newest mobile unit, Chromium, quickly became a top priority. “The original goal was to build the same truck,” says West, “but it’s been three years since we did the last one. There’s been a number of advances in technology, and we wanted to take advantage of those in this next truck. So the look and feel is very similar to the last one, but the infrastructure and power is much greater in Chromium.” Designed by VP of Operations and Engineering Dave Greany, Chromium and its support unit, Nickel, build on the success of their sister units — Iridium and Zinc, respectively — and have similar floor plans. However, Chromium has significant infrastructure improvements intended to set it up for success for years to come. The most notable upgrades include a new Calrec Apollo 128-fader audio console, fully equipped with eight TFT meter screens and eight touchscreen assignment panels, and a Grass Valley Kayenne production switcher, with integrated Summit fourchannel ClipStore server. For West, however, the most important improvement on Chromium is the Evertz EQX and EMR router with its Magnum unified control system, which allows significant embedding and de-embedding. “That’s really a big change in the industry over the past few years,” he says. “It kind of sneaks up on you because we have a little bit of that on our first truck, and we have more on Iridium, and it just seems like you never have enough when you go to these shows. So we revised the audio plant and decided to make the embedding and de-embedding all within the router, make it very simple, and have there be a lot of it.” To help round out the foundation of the mobile unit, an EVS XT[2] server was also added to the plan and has worked well. Other items “in the racks” — MADI for the ADAM intercom; the Wohler MADI 8 Mobile Sports Production Yearbook 2012 Chromium increases capacity with Evertz router allowing embedding/de-embedding and MADI in a small footprint. speakers; Evertz HD2014 PassPort converter, frame synchronizer, and decoder; and fiber connectivity — give Chromium/Nickel the ability to handle large signal quantities in multiple formats. Integrated by Diversified Systems, Chromium debuted on Sept. 1, broadcasting the Green Bay Packers-Kansas City Chiefs preseason game. It’s the third HD unit in the company’s fleet and was booked through the fall by CBS Sports Network (Army Football), CBS Sports (NFL), and MLB International for the MLB postseason. It will also be involved with the Rodeo Finals in Las Vegas for Winnercomm and with the 2012 Super Bowl for NFL Network. “There had been a lot of business that we had been turning away over the past several years just because we didn’t have the capacity to cover it,” says West. “So now we’re able to look at different packages and be able to retain a lot of that business that we had to pass on.” Corplex 915 Sherwood Dr., Lake Bluff, IL 60044 Tel: 847.582.8800 / Fax: 847.582.8730 www.corplex.tv Profiles crosscreek television Voyager 10 Slated To Complete HD Triumvirate By Jason Dachman T 64 wo years ago, procuring funds for an HD mobile-production unit without a dedicated contract from a broadcaster would have been next to impossible. However, as the economy claws its way back, mobile-production vendors like Crosscreek Television Productions have found it less difficult to obtain financing for new trucks. Proving this trend, Crosscreek will roll out its third HD mobile unit, Voyager 10, in December, without an exclusive contract. “With the economy a year or two ago, you just couldn’t build an HD truck without a [dedicated] contract,” says Crosscreek President/CEO Spruce McCree. “We even had a hard time getting the money for Voyager 9 [which debuted in summer 2009] even though it had two contracts on it. I don’t know if it’s a sign of industry [recovery] or just a sign of [rising] demand, but we know that, if we put it out there, it’s going to get used.” The 53-ft. HD expando will operate autonomously, without a B unit, similarly to Crosscreek’s Voyager 8 and Voyager 9. To enable seamless client crossover, Voyager 10 has an almost identical layout to those two trucks, featuring three production benches and a separate slide-out technical manager position. “All of our [mobile units] are self-contained in one truck,” says McCree. “It keeps clients’ costs down. And the logistics of having to park two trucks in some of these smaller venues can be very difficult.” Voyager 10 will feature a Grass Valley Kayenne production switcher, a Chyron Duet HyperX3, four EVS replay servers including an EVS XFile, and a Pesa multirate video router. Also on board will be eight Sony HDC 1500 cameras with Fujinon 88x lenses. The highlight is the new Calrec Artemis audio mixer with Bluefin2 technology and two MADI interfaces. The Artemis boasts up to 680 channelprocessing paths, 128 program buses, 64 IFB/track outputs, and 32 auxiliaries. Although Alabaster, AL-based Crosscreek plans to deploy the truck primarily on regional B- and Mobile Sports Production Yearbook 2012 Voyager 10 has almost identical layout to Voyager 8 and Voyager 9 (shown), with three production benches and slide-out technical manager position. C-level college events through Alliance Productions, Voyager 10’s infrastructure allows easy installation of additional cameras and EVS servers to produce an A-level network show, should the need arise. “We have been unable to address the massive needs of all of our clients, as well as additional clients, because we simply don’t have enough availability,” says McCree. “We haven’t had enough capacity, and neither has Alliance, so we thought this was necessary.” Gerling & Associates completed the Voyager 10 trailer in September, and Beck Associates has served as the truck’s integrator. McCree and VP of Engineering John Peers have set a target date of Dec. 1 for rollout. Until then, Crosscreek will continue to stay busy with its two current HD trucks and three digital SD units, serving ESPN, Fox Sports, Speed channel, TVG, and others. Crosscreek also serves as a major mobile vendor for ESPN Regional Television’s coverage of SEC college sports and is the exclusive provider for ESPN’s NHRA drag-racing contract. “Believe me, we are staying very busy these days, so we are very excited for [Voyager 10],” says McCree. “We have a proven track record, and we’re doing this [new truck] for the right price, so it makes sense for us, for the bank, and for our clients.” CROSSCREEK TELEVISION PRODUCIONS 100 Airpark Ct., Alabaster, AL 35007 205.663.4411 www.crosscreektv.com Profiles GAME CREEK VIDEO Two HD Units Head To ESPN By Ken Kerschbaumer I 70 n August, Game Creek Video launched two 53-ft. expando units for ESPN: Justice, a single-trailer unit modeled on the company’s Larkspur unit, and Victory, a two-trailer unit modeled on Dynasty. “Justice is a single-expando unit with a shrunken EVS replay area where the big goal is reducing the size and weight,” says Jason Taubman, VP of design and new technology. Both units feature Grass Valley Kayenne production switchers with 96 inputs and 48 outputs; Evertz routing; Sony cameras and Canon lenses; and Chyron graphics. Dynasty has nine EVS XT[2] replay servers, and Victory has 17. Icon Broadcast is on hand at Game Creek’s Hudson, NH, headquarters, handling systems integration and testing; the truck chassis were assembled by Gerling and Associates. The equipment complement is very similar to that of Larkspur and Dynasty, with two major enhancements: the new units have the Calrec Apollo audio board, along with new monitors custom built by Boland. “Apollo is the latest and greatest,” says Taubman. “It has more inputs and outputs, has touchscreens, and. when you compare it to the other Calrec consoles, doubles the number of faders.” It also has 12 layers, which means that it is, essentially, 12 audio desks in one. And two rows of 72 faders make it easier than ever for an audio mixer to quickly respond to live-sound needs. “The operator can set it up any way they want, and it will blow their minds at first because it is overwhelming,” Taubman adds. “But, when they get used to it, it will be the console they want.” Helping in that flexibility is an Evertz audio router that has 5,000x5,000 inputs and outputs. The video router is 576x1,125. The video router also feeds into the new Boland LCD monitors, custom-made to offer a 16:10 aspect ratio, no lights or buttons, and full control over an IP network. Taubman says the advantage of 16:10 is that it makes it easier to add in tally information while maximizing the size of the image. Mobile Sports Production Yearbook 2012 Larkspur’s front bench features a GV Kayenne production switcher and Boland flat-panel displays. “They also have a fluorescent backlight, a hinged design so that they can be lifted up and offer access to connections on the back, and HD-SDI inputs so there is no conversion gear required. “They did a nice job,” he says of Boland. “We started discussions in February and saw the first prototype at NAB [in April].” And, while Game Creek puts the finishing touches on Justice, work has begun on standalone B units that will be able to link up to any standalone Game Creek Video production unit via a fiber tether box that sits outside of the unit and has 500 ft. of video and audio runs. “The unit has its own router, monitors, and can roll up to a standalone unit, unlike, say, the Fox unit, where the B unit is totally inert without the A unit because the guts that drive it are in the A unit,” says Taubman. The two B units will have 47-in. flat screens, six along the side of the unit and two in the back and in a monitoring station. It also features an area for graphics and replay devices to be added and a room that can be used for an audio submix or graphics area. The first B unit will be used alongside Freedom for Fox NFL games before it rides alongside Larkspur for NBA coverage, work stoppages permitting. Notes Taubman, “The goal is to make it as flexible as possible.” Game Creek Video 23 Executive Dr., Hudson, NH 03051 Tel: 603.882.5222 / Fax: 603.882.5444 www.gamecreekvideo.com Profiles LYON VIDEO An Emphasis on Audio for Lyon-12 By Brandon Costa C 74 ommitted to staying ahead of the curve, Columbus, OH-based Lyon Video serves a growing trend in the mobile-production–unit industry with its latest truck, Lyon-12: embedding and de-embedding of audio. “One thing that we found that a lot of the clients are already using is those 16 channels of audio,” says Account Coordinator Chad Snyder, adding that many clients are using the embedding to add surround-sound mixes for international feeds. “That’s the real reason for adding the embedding and de-embedding going into and out of the EVS [servers], so you can have a dual-transmission feed.” The new truck, which hit the road in late July for the ESPN RISE Games, features a 64-fader Calrec Audio Artemis console, which relies on Calrec’s Bluefin2 high-density signal processing for power and on integrated Hydra2 networking to unify inputs and outputs regardless of a source’s location. The images are transmitted to an Evertz 3G routing and processing package, a system that provides 64 embedding destinations and 48 de-embedding sources, each with 16 channels of audio. “The way we see it, the core of the truck is really the audio console,” says Snyder. “It’s the anchor that helps us earn long-term commitments from top-tier clients like ESPN, Fox Sports, and Speed. This will be a hardworking production truck for us, supporting diverse shows for diverse clients. Not only is Calrec’s Artemis the right size with the right features; it’s operator-friendly: a freelance A1 can just sit down and get to work.” Integrated by Bennett Systems, Lyon-12 is a 53-ft. trailer with a 49-ft. expansion that can work on its own or with a B unit. It is the second in the generation of the Lyon fleet with a 3G-transmission package and is the third to feature a Grass Valley Kayenne switcher and LDK Series cameras on board. The truck, which is wired for 16 cameras, comes with 11 Grass Valley LDK 8000 Elite 3G cameras. “We’re one of the few guys on the road to be able to do a show optically and through triax,” Snyder points out. “12 was our first truck to do that.

The truck offers the wide-angle capabilities and zoom range of FUJINON XA101x8.9BESM Super telephoto lens. In addition, Lyon has also recently added three FUJINON XA88x8.8BESM telephoto HD field lenses. Rounding out Lyon’s FUJINON lineup are five XA72.9×9.3BESM telephoto HD field lenses, two ZA22x7.6BERM telephoto ENG/handheld HD lenses with 2X extenders, two ZA12x4.5BERM Super wide-angle ENG/EFP HD lenses with 2X extenders, and two XA17x7.6BERM HD ENG lenses with 2X extenders, each paired with a Grass Valley LDK 8000 Elite camera. Says Snyder, “ESPN has really latched onto the unit.” It is booked through the remainder of the college football season for ABC before tackling a lineup of bowl games and shifting to ESPN college basketball in the winter.

Columbus, OH 43228 614.297.0001 www.lyonvideo.com Profiles Mobile TV Group HD Trucks Come in Threes By Jason Dachman E ven with one of the largest fleets in the industry, Mobile Television Group (MTVG) is always looking to expand and upgrade to keep pace with the rapidly rising demand for HD mobile units. The company rolled out three dual-feed HD 53-ft. expando trucks in 2010 and three more in 2011 and has plans to debut three more in 2012. “We look at it like this: wherever the major-league teams are, that’s where we need to put a truck,” says President/coowner Phil Garvin. “We have to be able to meet the [demand] in each of those [markets].” In 2011, MTVG unveiled 28HDX, 29HDX, and 30HDX. Two nearly identical 53-ft. expandos, 29HDX and 30HDX, debuted this summer and ride on brand-new chassis built by Frontline Communications. Meanwhile, 28HDX, which hit the road in the spring, is a refurbished trailer that has been totally stripped and rebuilt. “If you walked into one truck or the other, you would be hard pressed to tell the difference,” says Garvin. The 28HDX rebuild is part of a continued effort by Garvin & company to replace all its first-generation HD trucks with state-of-the-art units. Thus far, MTVG has replaced 5HDX through 10HDX with refurbished HD trucks and plans to pull 11HDX and 12HDX off the road in the near future in order to rebuild them. “We’ve pretty much moved past SD, and we’re now trying to get rid of all of our first-generation HD trucks, meaning trucks with analog monitoring with no multiviewers,” says Garvin. “By the end of Main Office 2400 N. Ulster St. Denver, CO 80238 Tel: 303.388.8500 / Fax: 303.388.3773 78 29HDX is one of three nearly identical trucks rolled out by Mobile TV Group in 2011. The company now has three more planned for 2012. 2012, we won’t have any trucks without multiviewers and the latest gear.” 28HDX, 29HDX, and 30HDX are almost identical in terms of layout and equipment. All three feature Grass Valley Kayenne switchers (4M/E), three sixchannel and two four-channel EVS XT[2] production servers, a Chyron HyperX CG for graphics, and 10 Grass Valley LDK8000 cameras (which run on digital triax) outfitted with Canon lenses. The only major difference lies in the audio console: 28HDX features a Euphonix console; 29 and 30 have the new Calrec Artemis. “One of the biggest trends we’ve seen is clients’ demand for truly new trucks” says Garvin. “They do not want a first-generation HD truck anymore, even though it may have pretty much exactly the Midwest Office Minnesota/Wisconsin 379 W. 60th St. Minneapolis, MN 55419 Tel: 952.922.2373 / Fax: 952.487.9124 Mobile Sports Production Yearbook 2012 Dallas Office 2909 Taylor St. Dallas, TX 75226 Tel: 214.651.1446 / Fax: 214.571.9225 Profiles 82 mobile tv group same capability as a new truck. They want the new look and the latest generation of equipment.” Integrating the latest equipment into the trucks not only allows Garvin to offer a high-quality product but also protects MTVG against potential complaints from clients down the road. “There is no such thing as flawless technology,” he says. “There are always going to be problems, whether it’s brand new or seven years old. But if something goes wrong in a brand-new truck with the latest generation of equipment, then clients are more understanding. However, if it’s seven years old, that is not usually the case. That is the business we are in.” In addition to the latest generation of standard equipment, all three trucks feature an optional Vision Research Phantom v640 or v641 high-speed camera for ultra-slow-motion replay. “All of our new dual-feed trucks have [ultra-slowmotion] camera systems,” says Garvin. “We started doing it about a year ago or a year and a half ago. But now we have one system on all of the dual-feed trucks. We have 14 of the Ultra-Mos, which is a pretty big investment. About half are [Phantom v640s] and half are [v641s]. “We do not provide the systems out to third parties,” he continues. “Rather, it is part of our truck, just like any other equipment. We see that as becoming a totally standard part of pro events and high-level college events. At this point, you have to have them for events on that level. It’s almost expected by many of our clients.” In addition to on-board high-speed cameras, Garvin says clients are demanding that dualfeed trucks like 28HDX, 29HDX, and 30HDX be able to handle more HD feeds than ever before. In addition to the home and away feeds on any given show, MTVG is now being asked to deliver a clean and/or dirty feed for the league, Webonly feeds, isolated camera angles, or a Spanishlanguage feed. “These trucks are now cranking out a lot of different feeds, and that’s a major challenge,” says Garvin. “Some of them are embedded audio and some are not. Some are analog and some are AES. Some are HD and some are SD. It is a mess, and I’m constantly buying more equipment to handle all these feeds.” Mobile Sports Production Yearbook 2012 MTVG’s newly unveiled 29HDX features a robust replay area that includes two 4-channel and three 6-channel EVS XT2 production servers. According to Garvin, even more feeds will need to be delivered in HD as the demand for Spanish and other second-language feeds grows. In February, the Los Angeles Lakers and Time Warner Cable announced a 20-year, reportedly $3 billion deal to launch two new HD RSNs — one in English and one in Spanish. The Lakers-focused Spanish-language network will be the first of its kind in the U.S. and hints at the potential windfall of Spanish RSNs to come. “We are starting to see a lot more Spanishlanguage feeds, which requires completely different audio and graphics and usually one or two extra cameras,” says Garvin. “That requires another truck, but it can be an SD truck as of now. However, I don’t know how much longer the Spanish feeds can continue being in SD. The Lakers deal is a major factor in all that.” 28HDX is currently serving the Dallas, Oklahoma, and San Antonio markets (Mavericks, Rangers, Spurs, Stars, Thunder); 29HDX works primarily in Colorado and Utah (Nuggets, Rockies, Avalanche, Jazz); and 30HDX handles the Pittsburgh market (Pirates, Penguins) as well as the Carolinas and Tennessee. Next year will see the addition of another trio of dual-feed HD mobile units to the MTVG family, with 31HDX set to debut in March, 32HDX in July, and 33HDX later in the year. “We are aiming for three new trucks per year — one or two brand new and one or two refurbished,” says Garvin. “That is the plan for next year and in the future.” Profiles NEP BROADCASTING SS3 Hits Hawaii; New Domestic Trucks on Tap By Ken Kerschbaumer N EP Supershooters continues to be busy building new trucks as well as flypacks designed to meet client needs in both the continental U.S. and Hawaii. For example, in October 2011, SS3 hit the high seas on its way to Hawaii, where it has redefined the concept of the mobile-production truck: all the equipment can be removed from the 48-ft. production trailer and easily placed into Econoline vans. The reason? To better serve clients like Oceanic Cable in Hawaii, a market where inter-island travel is a constant issue. “There is an interesting challenge in the Hawaii with multipleisland work,” says NEP Broadcasting CTO George Hoover. “So we have built an integrated truck/ flypack that can come out of the truck and work independently of the trailer.” The trailer itself made the drive from NEP’s facility near Pittsburgh to California before setting sail on a freighter for Hawaii. Moving a large production truck can be difficult in Hawaii because ships large enough to transport it from one island to another may run only once or twice a week. By putting the equipment into flypacks, which can be transported in smaller vans, NEP will be able to NEP broadcasting 2 Beta Dr. Pittsburgh, PA 15238 Tel: 800.444.0054 86 NEP SS3 serves the Hawaiian market. move the gear via ferry service, which runs much more frequently. The trailer is laid out like any other single expando from NEP, featuring three tiers of seating in the main production area and a separate video area. When the flypacks come out, the only thing that remains are the consoles on the second and third production benches. The design goal was to build a flypack that two people could assemble for an event in about four hours and break down afterwards in less than an hour. “The flypack can be put together in a classroom for NEP Studios – NYC NEP Studio 54 513 West 54th St. New York, NY 10019 Tel: 212.468.1833 Fax: 212.468.1890 NEP Studio 33 503 West 33rd St. New York, NY 10001 Tel: 212.649.6399 Fax: 212.760.2821 NEP Midtown Studios 885 Second Ave. New York, NY 10017 Tel: 212.548.7700 Fax: 212.355.0523 NEP Production Center 727 Eleventh Ave. New York, NY 10019 Tel: 212.649.6242 Fax: 212.974.1120 NEP Studio 37 36 West 37th St. New York, NY 10018 Tel: 212.695.7704 Fax: 212.268.7920 NEP 5th Ave. Studios 401 Fifth Ave. New York, NY 10016 Tel: 212.401.4981 Fax: 212.685.4317 NEP Penn Studios 401 Seventh Ave. New York, NY 10001 Tel: 212.299.4866 Fax: 212.299.4867 NEP Screenworks – Corona, CA 1580 Magnolia Ave. Corona, CA 92879 Tel: 951.279.8877 Mobile Sports Production Yearbook 2012 NEP Denali – Burbank, CA 2 Theta Dr. Burbank, CA 15238 Tel: 800.444.0054 New Jersey Field Office 96 Route 173 West Hampton, NJ 08827 Tel: 908.735.4066 Hawaii 808.676.3800 www.nepinc.com Profiles NEP BROADCASTING Denali California is designed for use in producing entertainment shows where space is limited. 88 a high school basketball game or in a hotel room or under a tent,” says Hoover of the system’s flexibility.

Hoover says a key selling point for the Apollo was its dual-fader technology, which simplifies a big show by giving mixers fast access to the maximum number of controls. Other pluses included reasonable weight; integrated Hydra2 networking, which unifies I/O whether inside or outside the truck; reliability; sound quality; and client-attracting state-of-the-art technology. And because there are times when entertainment and sports do converge, such as the Super Bowl halftimes, where NEP trucks cover all aspects of the event, Denali California might be seen on the sidelines sooner than later. It offers sophisticated audio and record capabilities in a single truck that includes a production room, a private entrance vestibule, and a large audio room with space for playback mixer and sweetener. Mobile Sports Production Yearbook 2012 The new Hawaii unit is designed to be able to be broken down by one or two people and sent off in shipping cases via ferry to other islands in Hawaii. 2012 will see three new trucks hit the road for NEP, according to Hoover. Denali Arizona on Jan. 14 will lead the parade. “It is essentially a scaled-down version of the Denali California truck,” he says. “It has a scaleddown Alpha audio console, as California is primarily an audio-recording and -mixing facility for things like orchestras. Arizona is meant for shows that have prerecorded music or audio handled in a separate audio truck.” With respect to sports trucks, two 53-ft. units will be added to the fleet, one in February and another in June. Both will have the same infrastructure as SS22 and the same floor plan as found in SS16, 18, and 20. Profiles raycom sports HD1 Is Targeted at Regional Sports By Brandon Costa W 92 hen Charles Moye, technical operations manager at Raycom Sports, was assigned the task of heading up development of a brand-new HD production truck, he knew he wanted to learn from the best. So, while renting HD units from Game Creek, NCP, and others during the college basketball season last winter, he made himself the most observant person in the room. “We certainly were taking a close look and trying to learn as much as we could from those companies,” says Moye. “We put a lot of thought into it, and, with the budget that we had, we tried to do the most that we could.” Primarily used for Raycom ACC Network broadcasts, HD1 will handle the regional sports that Raycom is contracted to produce and will be available for rental. The 53-ft. expando unit made its debut on Sept. 3 at the ACC Network’s Football Game of the Week between Appalachian State and Virginia Tech. “For most of the year, we are working on our own shows,” he says. “However, we need the outside revenue to help pay for this thing. So, with that in mind, you’ve got to build a truck that can handle the equipment needs of an ESPN or a Fox and some of the other companies that we work for.” HD1, which can operate on fiber or triax, is equipped with an Evertz EQX HD router and a Grass Valley Kayenne HD production switcher with 72 inputs, 36 outputs, four M/E panels, six keyers per M/E, eight channels of DVE, 6 GB of still store, two chroma keyers, and a Lance TDC100 controller. The truck also features a Calrec Omega audio console, a bevy of EVS replay systems, and a Chyron Duet HyperX3 HD/SD system for graphics. A virtual monitor wall is driven by the Evertz VIPX routing and multi-image display system and boasts 288 multiviewer outputs. During broadcasts, Raycom Sports now has the ability to deploy a total of 12 cameras, including nine Sony HDC 1550R multiformat cameras with 10 various Canon lenses, six of which are 86x9.3 with stabilization. In the booth, broadcasters will have use of a Codi telestrator with a 14-in. monitor as well as four LCD and eight color monitors. Mobile Sports Production Yearbook 2012 HD1 features nine Sony 1500 HD camera positions and an Everts VIPX routing and multi-image display system. Gerling & Associates built the HD1 trailer, and Diversified Systems handled the truck’s integration. With the growth of conference channels and the spike in live content on regional sports networks, the supply of HD mobile units can, at times, struggle to keep up with demand of live event coverage. Now, with HD1, Raycom Sports has made the investment in its unit to allow both flexibility and piece of mind. “Any time you have your own truck, you’ve got a little more control when you’re trying to cover all of these games and when there just aren’t enough HD trucks available,” says Moye, adding that Raycom hopes to build a second HD unit at an undisclosed date. “Having your own [truck] gives you the ability to move it around, and that’s a big advantage.” The truck is booked to cover the ACC Network’s Football Game of the Week through December. It will then immediately move to a fully loaded slate of ACC basketball games in the winter. The unit will also give Raycom Sports and the ACC a major leg up as the conference continues to expand, with Syracuse and Pittsburgh joining the ranks in 2014 and Connecticut rumored also to be interested in making the leap as well. Says Kay, “We guarantee that the ACC Network is in the forefront of technology for years to come with this truck.” raycom sports 900 W.

Data on 175 trucks for live remote sports broadcasting and production indicate a variety of enhancements: more-capable replay systems from companies like EVS and Grass Valley, expanded audio boards, more-flexible production switchers, and more. Gearbase continues to be one of the most important offerings in the SVG Mobile Sports Production Yearbook. And for good reason: although visiting dozens of Websites can get the job done, sometimes it’s still easier to leave the Web aside and turn to a paper product.
