Chelmsford, Mass. – Jan. 28, 2020 – Any event production can be divided into two phases; set-up time, or pre-production, and then the show, or production.
All events have set-up time, so the user can take their time and prepare the complex shots, recording the individual button pushes or operations into some form of Macro or E-Mem.
A well-architected system such as Broadcast Pix can automate complex tasks easily and logically in the set-up phase, enabling the user to produce the show with simple, single button pushes. By separating the event into these two phases, Spectrum Productions provides a great example of how to produce superb, professional-looking content without making mistakes when under pressure.
Spectrum Productions, an AV production and rental services company, automated all the video presentations at the Regions Bank SEC Coaches Luncheon and SEC Legends Dinner event with Broadcast Pix macros. They created a series of complex transitions, which involved layers of motion loops, picture-in-picture compositions, keys, and more for use across 3 large screen displays. “It really would be impossible to execute so many simultaneous cues without Broadcast Pix Macros. That’s a lot of different commands for people to be running manually,” explained Preston MacIntyre, president of Spectrum Productions. “We wanted the consistency and repeatability of the macros. No matter how many steps, we knew everything was going to be perfect.”
