09/10: Le reportage de Thierry Vangulick

Ce groupe impressionnant de représentants chinois sont intéressés pour la plupart par tout ce qui touche aux technologies.  Chez Microsoft Innovation Center à Mons, une visite a été mise sur pied pour leur présenter le fruit du travail de différentes sociétés de la région. Les appareils photos ont crépité, mais est-ce que l'image wallonne est connue en Chine ?

La délégation chinoise s'est également rendue chez I-Movix.  Cette société leur a présenté ses caméras pour ralentis utilisés dans presque toutes les grandes compétitions sportives. Ils ont pu apprécier Neuro TV et ses studios virtuels, Victor Studio et ses publicités interactives. Les visiteurs chinois sont plus qu'attentifs. 

Mais une telle visite peut-elle déboucher sur des partenariats ? On dit les Chinois intéressés par des investissements en Wallonie. Ce jeudi après-midi, cette délégation se rend à Leuven et à Liège.

Tous ces voyageurs auront-ils une autre image de la Belgique une fois rentrés au pays?

The EVS servers are interconnected to a hybrid network, EVS XNet[2], for live and instant sharing across the entire production platform.

Mediatec Broadcast, part of the Mediatec Group and one of Europe’s producers of live events, is using a full complement of instant tapeless technology from EVS to produce and broadcast the Viasat Sport channel in Norway and the new Viasat Football channel.

EVS has provided a series of HD/SD XT[2] production and playout servers that handle all ingest and playout requirements for both the Viasat Sport and Viasat Football channels. The ingest control, metadata management and production content management is executed with EVS IPDirector software and Snell’s Morpheus automation system. Fast-turnaround productions that include live analysis and highlights packages are produced with EVS’ MulticamLSM application.

The EVS servers are interconnected to a hybrid network, EVS XNet[2], for live and instant sharing across the entire production platform and a GigE network for bidirectional file transfers to and from a 20TB Apple Xsan system with a Final Cut Server. The 24/7 rundown of both channels is managed with the Morpheus automation controlling the XT[2] ports.

Crosscreek selects Calrec Sigma audio console for HD sports production

The Sigma console is based on Calrec’s Alpha operating platform. It includes 320 internal channel processing paths that can be configured for up to 52 full 5.1 surround channels.

Looking to tout its ability to produce sports telecasts that include full surround-sound audio elements, Crosscreek Television Productions (in Alabaster, AL) has installed a 64-fader Sigma with Bluefin audio console from Calrec in its new HD remote broadcast truck, Voyager 9.

The 53ft trailer with a 51ft by 5ft expansion is now on the road covering a variety of sports events, including professional wrestling, college football and motor sports. The Sigma, which incorporates Calrec's Bluefin high-density signal processing (HDSP), is the second for Crosscreek, which installed one in its Voyager 8 truck in 2007.

The new Voyager 9 truck features a 3Gb/s infrastructure and is wired for 24 cameras, 14 tape machines and 10 EVS video servers. Beck Associates in Austin, TX, built the new truck.

Butch Mueller, Crosscreek director of engineering, said the advantage of the Sigma is that even freelance operators who have never seen a digital console can walk into the truck and figure it out. That’s important because the company does not use the same crews every time. Mueller also said that the Calrec console attracts new clients.

In designing Voyager 9, Crosscreek Television wanted to guarantee plenty of space for the people working inside. Calrec worked closely with the Crosscreek team to redesign the console so it could be custom-mounted on a tabletop, affording as much as 15 additional rack units of space underneath.

The Sigma console is based on Calrec’s Alpha operating platform. It includes 320 internal channel-processing paths, which can be configured for up to 52 full 5.1 surround channels.
