Story Highlights
While the 2021 NAB Show has been moved to October, the spring season will still feature a cavalcade of new product releases and groundbreaking news coming out of the broadcast technology sector. In an effort to keep the video-production community informed, SVG is hosting a series of SportsTech On Demand video interviews throughout April, May, and June with executives from the industry's top technology vendors.
Over the last year, remote workflows have become a key cog in the sports-video-production machine, but both high-profile and low-scale events couldn't make it to air without onsite technicians. President Tim Eichorst describes the vital role that these individuals play in the process and how mobile-unit providers can continue to evolve as the industry moves forward.
