Story Highlights

For the Big Game in the Big Easy, NEP Group is a substantial presence, supporting not only FOX Sports' main game broadcast but numerous other productions and Super Bowl LIX-related events all week long.

NEP has had nearly 100 staffers onsite all week, along with a fleet of mobile units and an arsenal of rental and specialty-capture devices. All in all, NEP is supporting 11 customers across 13 unique productions.

NEP production trucks are in New Orleans for various Super Bowl LIX productions for NFL Films, Roc Nation, and others.

We've been supporting rightsholders and broadcasters at the Super Bowl for decades now, says Howie Rosenthal, chief commercial officer, NEP Americas. For our people, there's a familiarity and comfort to being in this environment, at one of the biggest shows in the world. Each year, we see the variety of customers continue to grow, and we embrace the 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 Caesars Superdome to house efforts on a variety of productions. For NFL Films, NEP Super B and CT1 are working the game, with Supershooter 9 and ST9 hosting the world-feed production. Also, NCP10 A and B will help ESPN and the international feed, and Supershooter 16 is on TUDN's Televisa feed.

Also of note, NEP Silver, ST47, and ST27 are here for Roc Nation, which produces Kendrick Lamar's Super Bowl Halftime Show.

Elsewhere this week, NEP TS2 and Supershooter 3 for NFL Network's studio show; Supershooter 33 A and 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 support 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. Included in the roster of units are a pair of Sony 4800 hard cameras and lenses on the sidelines, robotic camera systems on each goalpost, robotic cameras shooting down each goal line, Sony P50 robos in the announce booth, and cameras used for a beauty shot, for studio coverage, and in the stadium hallways and tunnels. FOX Sports also has 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.
