As we see live sports returning, with the Covid-19 Pandemic in mind, ESPN is looking to a new workflow to bring live sports back on the air. This workflow includes gear from SimplyLive, too help bring the action to the air in the highest quality.
Since the beginning of the Corona Virus Pandemic, many organizations have had to pivot hard to at working from home- this includes major television stations like ESPN. With the help of SimplyLive’s ViBox and various other live streaming products, production is able to continue.
When The Jump returns to ESPN on Monday, the entire crew will be working from their homes – marking the first time ESPN is deploying a fully at-home workflow for one of its studio shows. The “Live at Home” remote-production workflow was developed in recent weeks by a committee that featured more than 30 ESPN staffers from the company’s Creative and Studio Direction, Production, Production Operations, Remote Production Operations and Technology departments.
