Blackmagic Design powers modular OB truck for a diverse range of live streamed productions.

Blackmagic Design today announced that The Live Stream King, a Toronto based livestreaming and audiovisual solutions provider, relies on an ATEM 2 M/E Constellation 4K live production switcher, in addition to numerous Blackmagic Design products, as part of its new modular OB truck. With more than 600 live streams under its belt, The Live Stream King produces and streams a range of events for clients such as Walmart, TD Bank and more.

Founded in 2019 by Director Ajeet Siewnarine, The Live Stream King recently introduced a modular OB truck equipped with Blackmagic Design, enabling seamless setups and enhancing flexibility to meet varied client needs.

Many projects require in venue configurations where deploying a full truck isn't feasible, so we opted for a modular approach that can be used on a case by case basis, said Siewnarine. This allows our team to select only the necessary gear for a specific project, eliminating the need to dismantle larger systems. Integrated patch bays further enhance safety and efficiency by enabling secure, rapid connections. This adaptable, semi permanent setup empowers The Live Stream King to confidently take on a spectrum of productions, both large and small.

The ATEM 2 M/E Constellation 4K, paired with an ATEM 1 M/E Advanced Panel 10, is pivotal for larger events, providing extensive input management, dual M/E functionality, and multiple AUX outputs for routing signals to recorders, displays, and more. This routing capability ensures seamless signal distribution, meeting client specific requirements, such as independent outputs for live streams and stage monitors. Additionally, networked software control facilitates dual operator functionality, eliminating the need for multiple video mixers.

The ATEM 2 M/E Constellation 4K streamlines our operations by supporting a wide range of input formats with built in scaling, eliminating compatibility issues, Siewnarine continued. Advanced networking features, together with app based tools, provide unmatched control and flexibility. With an integrated streaming encoder, the ATEM 2 M/E Constellation 4K also reduces hardware complexity and costs, making it an invaluable asset to our workflow.

For events that require portability and compact setups, an ATEM Television Studio HD8 ISO live production switcher serves as a vital component, and for smaller scale productions, an ATEM SDI Extreme ISO live production switcher provides a portable yet robust solution. For capture, The Live Stream King crew relies on Blackmagic URSA Mini Pro 4.6K G2 and Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K digital film cameras shooting in Blackmagic RAW.

Rounding out the OB truck, a Blackmagic Videohub 40 40 12G router ensures efficient signal management, and HyperDeck Studio HD Plus and HyperDeck Studio 4K Pro broadcast decks provide reliable event recording and playback. SmartView Duo and SmartView 4K monitors address the truck's unique space challenges by providing precise monitoring in cramped environments, and an ATEM Talkback Converter 4K enables communication and control, even in expansive production environments.

Always on the forefront of innovative workflows, The Live Stream King also recently implemented Blackmagic Replay complete with a DaVinci Resolve Replay Editor. The Blackmagic Replay workflow is a game changer for us as it reads all the files directly, adds stingers, does replay and adds to the timeline. DaVinci Resolve Studio is used for editing, specifically if we want to edit the entire event or just the highlight reel of replays produced, Siewnarine explained.

Flexibility is everything in live production, and Blackmagic Design empowers us to meet any challenge, Siewnarine concluded. The gear's reliability and innovation ensure exceptional results at any scale.

Looking to the future, The Live Stream King plans to expand into sports broadcasting, leveraging Siewnarine's background in motor sports media to cover racing and other live sports using its modular OB truck.
