PACIFIC TELEVISION CENTER NEW YORK COMPLETES FACILITY-WIDE RENOVATIONS 18 Jul 2013
Pacific Television Center (PacTV), a Los Angeles-based independent global transmission and production company, is proud to announce the completion of a major facility expansion to PacTV New York, its New York City-based broadcast center. The company has added a second HD studio, a third HD control room, two makeup rooms and an additional green room, increasing the center's overall operating size by 50 percent. These renovations are part of a larger company-wide initiative to expand its service offerings to its rapidly growing global client roster.
PacTV New York is located in the heart of Manhattan, the global epicenter for all things broadcast, says Nick Castaneda, vice president, business development, Pacific Television Center. Our clients rely on us to help them capture, create, broadcast and transmit their content around the world. Whether we are supporting broadcasters for a major news event, such as the recent Boston Marathon bombings, or distributing Major League Baseball coverage to Australia, our clients expect a high level of service. With this expansion, PacTV and its clients can do more and do it better.
The new HD studio is equipped with a Sony HXC100 1080 50i- or 60i-capable camera, enabling PacTV to shoot content natively in either format without the need for conversion minimizing any delay in delivery. This is especially important for the company's clients in Europe, Asia, Africa and Australia.
The new HD control room allows the staff to manage remote productions in both HD and SD. Its new FOR-A HVS-300HS mixer takes up to 16 sources from around the world and allows PacTV to maximize its fiber network in a production setting. As a result, PacTV New York has now doubled its monitoring ability inside the master control room. This way, it can easily monitor networks in Washington, D.C., Toronto, London and Los Angeles.
All of these enhancements are part of PacTV's company-wide commitment to providing its clients with the best service possible, in a comfortable environment. Some of PacTV New York s major clients include Channel 7 Australia, ITV Daybreak, Television New Zealand, Al Jazeera, ESPN, CNBC Asia and the publicity departments for ABC and FOX.
