Can you tell the difference?
On-site Production
Standard Setup
- 10 cameras on-site
- 2 OB trucks
- 15 crew on-site
- 2 charter flights
Pros
benefit 1
benefit 2
benefit 3
Cons
financial cost
environmental impact
noise pollution
space requirements
another disadvantage…
Remote Production
Remote Production Setup
- 2 cameras on-site
- centralised production suite
- 2 crew on-site
- no charter flights needed
pros
more cost effective
potentially lower overall environmental impact
streamlined workflow
no inefficient overlaps
4K Production Ready
direct access to central archive
in-house production talent can cover multiple events
less tech staff at the venue = more
journalists, talent and editorial staff to capture special moments and interviews
differentiate content for second screen,
mobile devices and niche audiences
staff can spend time at home with family
Cons
longer preparation time for new venues
(~ 2 weeks)
less opportunity for engineers to travel
another disadvantage
Essential Requirements
- reliable telecoms infrastructure
- binding agreements
- minimal end-to-end latency
- audio and video synchronization
- interoperability
Nuance. Not always best….
Key to remote production process is engineering things properly from the get-go. Cingularity takes responsibility for the full remote production workflow, including cameras and creative staff. By combining the remote site technical and camera operations with the transmission and encoding expertise, we’re able to streamline the workflow to ensure all available cost savings are achieved. We avoid inefficient overlaps by having an overarching view of the project. See customer case studies below.
