NEP Group will provide mobile broadcasting, engineering consultation, and technical support for NBC Olympics production of the Tokyo Olympics later this summer. NEP will provide outside broadcast units Supershooter 8, ST1 and ND6, as well as associated services, gear and technical support, for live coverage of the Opening Ceremony at Tokyo's Olympic Stadium, as well as athletics, swimming and diving events throughout the Games.
NEP Group will provide facilities and personnel to support NBC Olympics at the Tokyo Games.
NEP has been a great partner over the years supporting our Olympic Games production efforts with excellent facilities and a staff that is focused on providing the best service to their clients, says Chip Adams, VP Venue Engineering, NBC Sports Group & Olympics. We look forward to another successful chapter in our continuing Olympic Games partnership.
NEP's U.S. Broadcast Services and U.S. Specialty Capture divisions will send an extensive team of engineering, technical, operations, logistics and project management specialists to support NBC Olympics' production of the Olympic Summer Games from Tokyo.
NBC Olympics and NEP started our Olympic Games journey together more than 30 years ago at the 1988 Seoul Olympics, says Glen Levine, President, NEP U.S. Broadcast Services. I'm happy to say that NEP's team of managers, engineers and technicians has been an integral part of NBC Olympics' coverage of every Olympic Games since that time. We're extremely proud of our relationship with NBC Olympics and thrilled to support this successful, longstanding partnership with our OB units, robo cams and high-speed cameras, flypacks and creative technical solutions.
NEP is headquartered in the United States and has operations in 25 countries. Learn more at nepgroup.com.
