LiveU Launches Its Lightweight Sports Production Solution

LiveU introduces its Lightweight Sports Production solution making professional sports storytelling accessible to all.

Lightweight Sports Production opens up new frontiers for diverse and minority sports that were previously sidelined due to economic, resource or time constraints. Built on a remote production "ground-to-cloud-to-crowd" model with broadcast-grade video performance, the turnkey solution offers a cost-effective alternative for any sports production, including mainstream sports broadcasts.

LiveU's Lightweight Sports Production provides a complete capture-mix-share solution, making live video capture, program production and distribution collaborative and hassle-free. By eliminating the need for extensive production set-ups, on-site production trucks, or satellite uplinks, Lightweight Sports Productions can be taken to air for a technology cost of as little as $500 per event, giving producers total control over costs.

Seamlessly integrating LiveU's portable 5G bonded video encoders with LiveU Studio, the company's cloud-native video production service, the easy-to-use solution offers an affordable and quick route to get fully synchronized multi-cam sources into the cloud and out to digital and linear audiences.

Featuring the newly released next-generation version of LiveU Studio, hosting a range of sports-centric capabilities together with a brand-new intuitive interface, the solution is designed to be lightweight in terms of operation, but heavy hitting when it comes to fan engagement. This is all controlled from one screen, with the new Studio UX making a single operator possible, saving on resources as well as technology. The single operator can easily handle a complete production from a single pane of glass, including live switching, Instant Replay, ISO recording, SCTE-35 ad insertion, guest management and distribution. LiveU has also teamed up with selected third-party vendors to offer integrated HTML-based graphics and AI video editor tools for a more immersive audience experience.
