This is literally one of the first features we started working on in Motto. It sounds like a fairly straightforward feature, but once we started thinking about our (potential) customers' needs for this, we had to channel a lot of complexity into an easy to use and accessible feature. It allows sports organisation of any size to create and use structured event metadata around the live broadcasts.

Wrapped Up a Big Project! 🚀 Today marks the end of a challenging but rewarding journey. I’ve just finished designing and implementing a complete set of graphics templates for 24/7 live broadcasting and streaming—suitable for digital, cable, and satellite TV. This project, worth in the high tens of lakhs, took a lot of late nights, coffee refills, and countless revisions, but seeing it come to life has been more than worth it! Creating these presets wasn't just about adding polished visuals; it was about crafting a seamless experience for viewers and simplifying the workflow for broadcasters. Every piece—whether it’s an on-screen ticker, headline overlay, or smooth transition—is built to keep the audience engaged and ensure that broadcasts run smoothly. When I started this, I knew the project would push my skills and patience to the limit, but those are the kinds of challenges that make us grow. Now, I’m looking forward to seeing it in action and hopefully adding more projects like this to my portfolio. POV: Investing in quality and precision may seem like extra work, but it’s what sets us apart.

Reflecting on the #evolution of #entertainment, it's fascinating to see how far we've come since the first drive-in movie theater opened in 1933. That #innovative leap allowed people to enjoy movies from the comfort of their cars. Fast forward to today, and 83% of U.S. households have at least one streaming service, bringing a world of entertainment right into our living rooms. This shift not only shows how #technology has transformed our viewing habits but also highlights our enduring desire for #convenience and #accessibility in our entertainment choices. What will the next evolution bring?

The Evolution of Broadcast Synchronisation In the early days of television, producers relied on clapperboards and manual adjustments to synchronise audio and video. Fast forward to today, and the complexity of modern broadcast setups demands a more sophisticated approach. At Hitomi, we've revolutionised this process with our MatchBox technology. By leveraging precise electronic measurements, we've reduced sync time from minutes to mere seconds. This isn't just about efficiency—it's about elevating the quality of your broadcast and ensuring viewers remain engaged. Making sure viewers hear the sound of the ball hitting the bat at the same time as they see it. Whether you're managing a multi-camera live sports event or a complex studio production, precision timing is crucial. How are you tackling sync challenges in your productions? #LipSync #Latency #SportsBroadcasting #LiveEvents #PerfectTiming

Broadcast from anywhere to anywhere...

Which way round do you prefer to set up your camera lens controls? 📷 Camera operators have long debated the placement of zoom and focus controls. Some have the zoom on the left and focus on the right, while others, like myself, prefer the opposite. The rationale behind this varies, from enabling smoother camera movements to personal training backgrounds. Individual preferences often stem from one's training. Those with a background in portable single-camera setups tend to place the zoom on the right, controlling the lens with their left hand. Conversely, studio and outside broadcast-trained operators might opt for the opposite configuration. Ultimately, the choice boils down to personal comfort and familiarity. Whether you lean towards left or right controls, what matters most is efficiency and ease of use. Share your preferred setup below and the reason behind it! 🎥 #DOP #LightingCameraman #CameraOperators #VideoProduction #LensControls #Content #Contentcreator #Portablesinglecamera #PSC #Outdoorbroadcast #LiveEvents #Live #LiveBroadcast #LiveStreaming #Streaming
