Remote Production Opens a New Era of E-sports Broadcasting

Remote production can reduce the number of staff stationed at the front broadcast site, a set of professional production personnel and equipment can carry out multiple broadcasts in accordance with unified standards and procedures, which can greatly improve production efficiency and reduce broadcast costs. The venue of the competition is located in the Wuhan Guanggu International Tennis Center and the core broadcast system is placed in the Shanghai Tengjing Sports Broadcast Production Center, which is hundreds of kilometers away from the venue.

Only the cameras, matrix panels, call panels, monitors and other equipment are placed at the competition site, and the video, audio, call, control signals, etc. of the front and back ends are connected through remote information exchange and IP technology.

From the 2017 League of Legends World Championship, the 2018 Asian Games e-sports project, the 2019 League of Legends 8^th and 9^th Anniversary Celebration to 2020 League of Legends World Championship, SMT has accumulated a lot of experience in remote production and e-sports broadcasting.

The director and technical team in the background can acquire all the information of the front-end broadcasting site and sent command, and the on-site team can also call all related resources on the back-end.
