digiGO! — The Digital (R)Evolution™
-
Television in 3-D appears to be accelerating toward the mainstream — take, for example, NEP Broadcasting’s announcement last week that Supershooter 3D, the first mobile TV truck designed specifically for producing live 3-D television events, is ready to roll. The mobile unit, created by NEP Broadcasting and PACE Design using PACE’s FUSION 3D system, is intended to satisfy growing demand for 3DTV production. SS 3D combines PACE's FUSION 3D technology, designed in a partnership with filmmaker James Cameron, and NEP Broadcasting's experience in live television mobile unit design and integration. The new 3D production truck features a 3D production viewing area, a convergence station, and 3D-capable tape, video and engineering rooms. The vehicle is wired for eight 3D cameras, two six-channel EVS XT[2] servers, and 10 tape machines and includes a Solid State Logic Aysis Air PLUS! digital audio console. SS 3D made its debut last weekend to cover the Ohio State vs. University of Southern California college football game for ESPN and is slated to cover a wide range of events from concerts to sports.
