5 benefits of Remote Production

Today, the move to IP is a game changer for broadcasters. IP technology enables a more flexible workflow with the ability to instantly transport and share uncompressed 4K live content. As a result, more events are covered by live remotes using IP infrastructure, especially within the live sports and events sector.

It’s certainly true that that production costs are a major concern for broadcasters and right holders (and to be honest, for everyone nowadays). Remote production is an interesting solution that helps you cut costs, both linked to staff travel and equipment.

With remote production, there’s no need to bring your entire team of producers, managers, editors and other engineers. Fewer people are needed in the field, which lowers travel costs and other related expenses, such as hotel or transportation costs during the stay.

It means you don’t have many associated costs with transporting fragile equipment to the remote site. You can make sure that you use OB trucks to handle higher resolutions when required.

It also saves time as the setup of your equipment is consequently faster.
