WEDNESDAY | YOUR LIVE EVENT PRODUCTIONS
On Wednesday, we talk our bread and butter: games. Our treasured live games will return and, when they do, we’ll be there to tell their stories better than ever before. Whether it’s through interpersonal relationships or technological enhancements, how are collegiate athletics live event producers not only presenting a live broadcast of the game, but telling the deeper stories of their student athletes, coaches, and campus to add a deeper layer of engagement to the live game broadcast?

Tech Focus: At-Home Production Tools Prior to the Coronavirus outbreak, the sports video industry’s accepted definition of “at-home” or “REMI” production looked quite similar to a centralized control room on a college campus. Now, as the college industry hopes to get back to live events, collegiate content creators are looking for creative solutions to deploy a production crew safely with solutions that may take some positions out of the control room environment. Technology experts gather to share their learnings from the past couple of months to help you make decisions on what “at-home” tools may help you get your live events back on the air safely and efficiently. |
1:45 - 2:30 p.m. |
Panel: Strategies and Tech for Integrating Deeper Storytelling Into Live Event Production While the core tenant of any live sports broadcast is to deliver the game to the viewer, content creators these days are looking for new ways to better tell the stories of not only the score, but the athletes, coaches, and campus life behind each program. Whether it’s through technology (graphics, replay, cameras, lenses, microphones, connectivity) or strategy (relationships with coaches, on-air talent, SIDs), how are live college sports broadcasters taking the live game to the next level to developer deeper affinities among viewers? |
5:00 - 6:00 p.m. |
NETWORKING HAPPY HOUR: What Will Your Production Operations Look Like When Live Sports Return?

Come spend some time with your industry colleagues and share when you’ve been planning for how to execute your productions in a post-COVID world. |
