Checking out ORADs VR studio technology, we went to Arqiva and Molinare in London. Arqiva has a very nice facility and they use different tracking solutions to create the 3D environment. The play out Sky’s gaming channels aswell as the UK Eurosport channel. Molinare was all about creative working with the 3D spaces they create. Good fun.

Doing research for the new Childrens Channel in Norway, we went to Hybrid MC in Paris to evaluate some nice 3D VR Studio solutions.
We wanted to shout out a cool note about using EVS Servers (mostly used in sports for replays and so on) to do recordings in studio and transfer the media to Final Cut Pro edit seats. Up until now we have used 4 DigiBeta decks to capture three ISOs and the switcher output, for logging, ingest and editing in DV quality for the show Jubalong, a kids programme. Now we can start transfer of clips from the EVS to the X-File, the X-File transcodes the mxf’s to DVCPRO50 QuickTime wrapped material on the network or a storage device, and start to edit right after the shoot. This saves a LOT of hours and is much more convenient to work with.
