All in a Day's Work!
My favorite part of my job is being challenged and making a difficult shoot work.
Anywhere from visual effects to live streaming to clients so they can watch what is being shot when they are far away.
Knowing the tools of my trade enables me to be this problem solver.
So recently, I did a job where we were filming in ๐ฌ๐ฎ๐ป๐ธ๐ฒ๐ฒ ๐ฆ๐๐ฎ๐ฑ๐ถ๐๐บ, and there was a limited amount of people allowed into the venue.
Of course, ๐ฉ๐ง๐ฅ (๐ฉ๐ถ๐ฑ๐ฒ๐ผ ๐๐๐๐ถ๐๐) was one of them. Not only did we have to get picture from cameras that were far away from where we were able to set up, but I had to stream using the internet to the clients and agency in a bus outside the stadium in a parking lot.
So jobs like this require a little planning and knowing that there is cellular internet available on both sides to get signal from inside the stadium to the bus outside the stadium.
We have different options for this, including Starlink, which we didnโt need. The bonded cellular and ๐ ๐ถ๐๐ถ ๐ฑ๐ฒ๐๐ถ๐ฐ๐ฒ๐ we own were perfect for this situation.
Now, how do I get the signal to me and also send the signal across the stadium for people to see what was being shot? I used ๐ช๐ฎ๐๐ฒ ๐๐ฒ๐ป๐๐ฟ๐ฎ๐นโ๐ ๐๐ถ๐ป๐ฒ๐ฉ๐๐ฒ ๐๐ฟ๐ฎ๐ป๐๐บ๐ถ๐๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ and receivers and handheld setup to make this happen. It all worked like clockwork, and I was able to get the job done.
I did have an assistant who made sure that the streamed signal at the bus was up and running. All in all, it went well, and I got to take some great pictures inside the stadium.
As always, I love sharing what I do and letting you know that no task is too small or too big for us to solve.
