The Seven Network, original broadcaster of Summer and Winter Olympic games, worked with Australia’s CT Group to create a virtual production environment with a LED wall powered by Brompton Technology Tessera processing.
CT built a template with the client, requiring high resolution LED panels to provide backgrounds for the broadcasts.
Two 4K outputs from a media server were fed into two Brompton Tessera SX40 processors to achieve the effect with Unilumin 1.8mm LED panels, achieving a screen size of 19.5mx2.5m, curved around a 5m radius.
Eight Tessera XD 10G data distribution units were also used to improve the day-to-day workflow.
