EventDV Live

The Spring 2011 edition of EventDVLive includes features on producing sports event films, corporate meeting highlight reels, conference webcasts, and the 53rd Grammys broadcast, as well as a look inside an innovative event video sales and distribution model, a tutorial on Adobe’s Flash Live Media Encoder, and reviews of the Roland VR-5 AV Mixer and Panasonic’s shouldermount AG-HMC80.

The addition of the optical version of Thunderbolt to an iMac or Mac Pro could make it possible to connect multiple cameras to a single machine, perhaps through a breakout box containing 3G-SDI allowing for live video mixing of multiple streams.

CrossOver Solo has same features and specs as CrossOver 12 with the main electronics and signal I/O combined with the panel as a single unit—reducing cost and size, providing a $9995 solution for mobile, small-crew live-switched event production.

With the addition of an HD/SD switcher with 3D stereoscopic production capabilities to its growing line of professional 3D products, Panasonic now offers a multi-camera 3D acquisition/switching with effects/recording system for under $100,000.

Integrated live production solution combines Vision 2 control panel with 16-channel HD/SD I/O, SoftMetal video server, 3D motion graphics in 9 rack units.
