We Go Live on the Lanes!

Next Episode: May 28th -

North Brunswick,

 NJ 

- 8:00 p.m. - 9:00 p.m.

This week the Live X team rolled on site to produce the new Bowlero game show series, Live on the Lanes. Our crew not only produced the Facebook Live Stream, but we also created interactive audience engagement for viewers at home to participate in winning cash prizes! Live X Technical Producer, Aubrey Russell commented that "When the vision for this show was brought to us it made so much sense for what we offer. Being able to tie in our Graphics System with an Interactive Facebook Live stream is right up our alley!”The production of this series was a unique challenge. Technically, we needed to get up close on all the action. The Blackmagic Micro Studio 4K cameras  were centered straight down the lanes to capture the crashing pins, gutter-balls, and curve balls for viewers to see. Our Technical Manager, Rob Baynard incorporated the Blackmagic URSA Broadcast cameras and Blackmagic 4M/E ATEM switcher with built-in Davinci-style color wheels to simultaneously color correct and control all the cameras in real-time. "The beauty in staying in the Blackmagic universe, is that everything works together, without expensive camera control units or additional remote-control panel combinations." said Baynard.  

In each
