It’s no secret that Covid-19 has caused a major disruption in the live sports industry since early 2020. Now, some major sporting events are returning, taking safety concerns into account. This means different workflows, lighter attendance, and a greater need for streaming.
The Tennis Channel was one of the first networks to come back with live sports since the pandemic. August’s Women’s Tennis Association (WTA) Top Seed Open in Lexington, KY, represents the first WTA- or ATP event in the United States since the pandemic shut down sports in March. Since then, the Tennis Channel stayed up and running with producing five tournaments in the U.S and carrying hundreds of hours or live footage around the world. With the help of the SimplyLive ViBox, the network was able to produce the WTA Top Seed Open and keep the safety of their team a priority.
Simplylive has recently put out a great overview of their UI gateway workflow!
The SimplyLive ViBox is a great solution for multi-camera sports production. It includes instant replay, slow motion and custom graphics- as well as a wide variety of other production features.
SimplyLive joined Broadfield to be a part of their weekly webinar Liquid Lunch & Learn! But they also stayed to give live demos for their Varsity Bundles!
