Great Things Happen When We Learn To Work Together Why doesn’t everything “just work together”? And how much better would it be if it did? This is an in-depth look at the issues around why production and broadcast systems typically don’t work together and how we can change that. If we do, there are untold benefits.
Microphones: Part 1 - Basic Principles This 11 part series by John Watkinson looks at the scientific theory of microphone design and use, to create a technical reference resource for professional broadcast audio engineers. It begins with the basic principles of what a microphone is and does.
Standards: Part 19 - ST 2110-30/31 & AES Standards For Audio Our series continues with the ST 2110-3x standards which deploy AES3 and AES67 digital audio in an IP networked studio. Many other AES standards are important as the foundations on which AES3 and AES67 are constructed.
Future Technologies: Artificial Intelligence & The Perils Of Confirmation Bias We continue our series considering technologies of the near future and how they might transform how we think about broadcast, with a discussion of the critical topic of training AI models and how this is potentially compromised from the outset by innate confirmation bias.
Designing An LED Wall Display For Virtual Production - Part 1 The LED wall is far more than just a backdrop for the actors on a virtual production stage - it must be calibrated to work in harmony with camera, tracking and lighting systems in an interdependent array of technology.
