Story Highlights
At the Big Game in the Big Easy, NEP Group is putting in a substantial effort to support the main game broadcast from FOX Sports as well an numerous other productions and events surrounding the event all week long.
NEP has had nearly 100 staffers on-site for the week as a part of a fleet of mobile units and an arsenal of rentals and specialty capture devices. All in all, NEP is supporting 11 customers across 13 unique productions.
NEP Mobile Units are here in New Orleans for various Super Bowl productions for NFL Films, Roc Nation, and others.
We've been supporting rights holders and broadcasters at the Super Bowl for decades now, and for our people, there's such a familiarity and comfort to being here in this environment, at one of the biggest shows in the world, says Howie Rosenthal, Chief Commercial Officer, NEP Americas. Each year we see the variety of different customers here continue to grow, and we embrace that evolution of the audiences they're reaching and the services they need to do it, whether it's a twist on something traditional for the game, or brand new programming and content being added.
NEP Mobile Units has multiple trucks in the split production compound outside the Caesars Superdome to house efforts on the game. For NFL Films, NEP's Super B and CT1 are working the game with Supershooter 9 and ST9 hosting the Super Bowl World Feed production. Also, NCP10 A and B will help ESPN and the International Feed; and Supershooter 16 is on TUDN's Super Bowl Televisa Feed.
Also of note, NEP Mobile Unit's Silver, ST47, and ST27 are here for Roc Nation, which produces Kendrick Lamar's Halftime Show.
Elsewhere this week, NEP Mobile Units has parked TS2 and Supershooter 3 for NFL Network's Studio Show; Supershooter 33 A&B is Concom's home for Twitch Streamer Bowl and Madden Bowl; Atlantic is Van Wagner's home for the NFL Tailgate event; Yukon A and B, and Bravo produced NFL Honors; and Gold and ST79 supports the Super Bowl Soulful Celebration and the Gospel Bowl.
NEP Specialty Capture is adding numerous robotic and high-resolution cameras to FOX Sports' broadcast of Sunday night's game. Inlcuded in the roster of units are a pair of Sony 4800 hard cameras and lenses on the sidelines, robotic camera systems on each goalposts, robotic cameras shooting down each goal line, Sony P50 robos in the announce booth, as a beauty shot, for studio coverage, and in the stadium hallways and tunnels (7). FOX Sports is also a Sony P50 on its Bourbon Street pregame set and three P50s and a Railcam with a Sony FR7 camera for coverage of the pregame Purple Carpet.
When you look at each individual solution, you can see how it has evolved over the years, just like our customers, says Rosenthal. When we're able to take a moment this week to reflect on that, it makes us incredibly proud.
NEP Specialty Capture also has RF camera systems in New Orleans for Van Wagner (3), Roc Nation (6 for Halftime Show), FOX Sports (6 for the Bourbon Street set), NFL Honors (3), NFL Network (three on their host set and one on the NFL Honors Red Carpet show), and one exch for Televisa and International Media Services.
