Headquartered in Sydney, Global Advance, one of the most diverse media production services companies in Australia, has changed the way remote production is delivered by creating cost efficiencies and scalability thanks, in no small part, to Clear-Com technology. Working together with system technology integrator Elevate Broadcast, a Clear-Com partner, the Global Advance team utilizes a Clear-Com communications system comprised of Eclipse HX Digital Matrix and FreeSpeak II Digital Wireless Intercom supplemented by the Agent-IC Mobile App to produce the Australian Professional League's (APL) A-League men's and women's soccer programming for Australian commercial television network Network 10 and the subscription VOD service, Paramount .
When we came into this project, we were looking to take the way remote production and outside broadcast was done even further, says Dennis Breckenridge, CTO of Global Advance. We endeavored to drive economies of scale and operational efficiencies, saving our customers significant money, and offering as good if not better levels of coverage than they were used to receiving. It really all comes down to the technology we implement and our ideology of what remote production can be by harnessing 2110 IP connectivity.
Notably, the system was originally commissioned and produced in Singapore in 2020 during the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic shutdown, allowing Dennis' team to produce the broadcast fully remotely from nearly 4,000 miles away.
Now, while the system (and production crew) is based out of Sydney, they're still able to accomplish seamless remote production. The backbone of Global Advance's system is the Eclipse HX-Delta, a high-density 3RU rackmount frame supporting point-to-point, or one-to-many (party line or conference) communications up to 256 ports. It's linked with LQ Series IP Interfaces out to the field for moving and distributing comms signals to and from all the communication points on the network, and incorporates a Dynamic Eclipse Configuration (Dynam-EC ) add-on module, which Andrew Parsons, Communications Manager with Global Advance, says plays a powerful role.
I use Dynam-EC extensively to actively control all the comms facilities to manage the overall system, he says. I was able to architect and manage the communication between all the different venues on any given weekend. It allows a single communications person located in a control room to manage up to 6 APL games in an evening, which is far more efficient than a typical comms management workflow supporting multiple loca
