If you are following our NCAA Basketball productions for ESPN, make sure to check our website calendar regularly for updated game dates, times, teams, and locations.

The sports world is beginning to return to play and plans for protecting players and audiences are carefully being put into place. No one can say for sure if things will be back to the way they were before, and the transition will undoubtedly present many challenges. However, we assure you that Winkler Productions is prepared to once again deliver high-quality productions of your favorite sporting and entertainment events.

As with most business entities, we have been busy preparing to resume production activities in new and different ways that will be both safe and effective. The new processes and procedures are designed to maximize production value and crew safety such as REMI/at-home style productions, limited on-site personnel, expanded work stations and medical protocols for all production staff (illness screening, mask requirements, sanitization procedures, etc.)

When the time is right, know that we are ready and eager to serve your production needs in the safest manner possible. Please feel free to contact us directly to discuss our services as you proceed with bringing your sports properties back on line.

Over the last few weeks, COVID-19 has presented many complex challenges and has had an unprecedented impact on all of our daily lives. In addition to the personal toll, the business of our clients and colleagues, many of which are in the sports industry, has been greatly impacted.

We know that eventually, normalcy will return and that the lights will come back on in sports arenas and school gymnasiums. However, right now the number one priority is for everyone to take the proper steps to be safe and healthy for themselves, their family and their communities.

Even though we are not producing broadcasts of sporting or public events during this time, we want you to know that Winkler Productions is fully operational and available to assist with any type of media production service, both in the near term and when things return to normal. The primary objective both now and in the future will be to ensure the health and safety of our clients as well as our staff on all projects.

Let us know if we can help in any way. In the meantime, we wish everyone our best as we navigate through this global crisis together.

Be safe and well,

Steve Winkler
