Maple Heights High School Extends their Board of Education and Athletic Centers Reach with JVC CONNECTED CAM PTZ Cameras and IP Streaming Switchers

Maple Heights High School, a public high school located in Maple Heights, Ohio expands their athletic center and Board of Education remote production platforms with a complete JVC Professional Video workflow.

The town of Maple Heights was looking to upgrade the existing streaming infrastructure in both the local high school’s athletic center and the Board of Education facility. Working with Sam Avellone, director of sales from NPI Audio Visual Solutions, they were able to do exactly that.

First, the goal for the Maple Heights Board of Education was to provide a live streaming platform that was available to both board and community members who are unable to attend the meeting and wish to watch online. They also needed the ability to record and archive their meetings so people can visit their website view them at a later time.

The upgraded system includes two JVC’s KYPZ200N CONNECTED CAM NDI®|HX enabled PTZ cameras, a RM-LP350G Desktop Control Surface, a RM-LP5G PTZ Camera Controller and a KM-IPS84 vMix Switcher for streaming the board of education council meetings.

The Board of Education quickly found the KY-PZ200N PTZ cameras plug-and-play capabilities to be intuitive, the image quality impressive, and the ability to use multiple presets for the PTZ cameras a big plus. The ability to have individual presets for each of the council member’s chairs and podium where speakers present to the council allows for the camera operator to access a variety of scene angles instantaneously, providing viewers with a dynamic viewing experience.

“The optics are superior with JVC cameras, I will never compromise the quality of the image because of the name on the camera. We have worked with other brands and found with some the image quality is inferior, pixelated, and when you’re doing broadcast, especially when streaming, you’ve got to have a good quality image.”

Sam Avellone, Director of Sales from NPI Audio Visual Solutions

“What’s happened is you now have customers that see the difference between a good stream and a bad stream. There are three things that make a good stream: superior quality video, high quality audio and animated graphics. This is reinforced with the ability of having different camera angles and the ability of flying a lower third in and out to keep their attention.”

Sam Avellone, Director of Sales from NPI Audio Visual Solutions

Avellone finds the biggest compliment to a customer’s satisfaction is repeated business. He has done multiple installations for schools, house of worships, and sports facilities using JVC Professional Video.

The Board of Education also can share their presentations or documents by bringing them into the KM-IPS84 vMix Switcher easily from a laptop.

“The features of the vMix switcher with the built-in graphics, the ability to build layers and use lower thirds and graphics over the top, it’s a no-brainer from a cost standpoint.”

Sam Avellone, Director of Sales from NPI Audio Visual Solutions

Next on the upgrade agenda was Maple Heights’ athletic center. The athletic center AV system installation is also powered by JVC PTZ cameras, camera controller and CONNECTED CAM IP streaming switchers. The integration included providing the program out of JVC’s KM-IPS84 video switcher to the facility’s new video boards as well as the athletic center’s video control console for streaming to the web.

The KY-PZ200N CONNECTED CAM NDI®|HX enabled PTZ cameras, combined with the additional JVC Professional Video affordable workflow tools were chosen with the idea to be used to capture a variety of sports as their seasons change. The center also uses the PTZ cameras to capture events such as assemblies and presentations.

Included among the JVC equipment installed was the multi-award-winning KM-IP8S4 CONNECTED CAM vMix Studio Switcher, which can manage a minimum of eight NDI inputs at 1080 60P using vMix 4K licensed software. The 2RU device is optimized for switching live programming in SD up to full HD 1080 60P and offers several output options, including one 3G-SDI, one HDMI, four DisplayPort and a Gigabit Ethernet network port.

The installation also includes the RM-LP350G CONNECTED CAM vMix Control Surface, a desktop controller for vMix that works with the JVC KM-IP8 systems to enable traditional-style switching, and the RM-LP100 Advanced Remote Camera Controller with joystick, rocker switch, and a seven-inch touchscreen panel that provides remote control of PTZ operation, position presets, and image painting capability for up to ninety-nine cameras.

Bruce’s journey with JVC began in the 1990s, where he was already acquainted with the brand’s top-notch S-VHS cameras during his time as a news professional. Fast forward to the early 2000s, and Bruce, now a freelance videographer, made a deliberate choice to invest in the JVC GY‐HM100U for his personal projects.

Upon joining Above & Beyond Fellowship, Bruce’s video expertise became a cornerstone for the congregation. Eager to contribute, he offered his knowledge to train volunteers in television production, setting the stage for the growth of the church’s services. As Bruce’s reputation spread, other churches sought his guidance in setting up their video systems.

“I’ve been a fan and user of JVC since 1978, and at some point, I started saying: ‘Nothing comes between me and my JVC.’” – Andre Bruce

Assuming the role of Video Ministry Leader at Above & Beyond Fellowship, Bruce encountered a challenge: the existing AVL system was a patchwork of gear from different brands and eras. The frustration peaked when integrating video streaming proved cumbersome, exacerbated by the use of budget-friendly, off-the-rack solutions. Bruce also faced difficulties in finding volunteers to operate the cameras.

The solution emerged in the form of the Aspire Program, a collaboration between Church Production and JVC Professional Video to promote PTZ camera production in churches. Intrigued by the potential benefits, Bruce seized the opportunity to participate and showcase the advantages of a PTZ camera/streaming system to his church’s leaders.

JVC recognized Bruce’s vision and selected Above & Beyond Fellowship as the winner, offering a comprehensive package of their latest NDI®-enabled solutions. This included PTZ cameras, a handheld 4K camera, a remote camera controller, and workflow solutions tailored for church environments.

Thrilled with the system, Bruce praised the NDI features for streamlining operations and reducing cabling complexities. JVC’s gift not only met his expectations but also validated his efforts to persuade church leaders. The PTZ cameras, in particular, proved user-friendly, seamlessly integrating with the existing system while delivering video quality comparable to larger churches with substantial investments.

Witnessing positive changes in the live stream, church members recognized the impact of these improvements. Bruce now ardently recommends JVC Professional Video to other churches, emphasizing the importance of investing in a cost-effective and future-proofed system that aligns with evolving needs. For Bruce, the journey with JVC has not only been a blessing but a testament to unwavering trust: “Nothing comes between me and my JVC.”
