NEW EQUIPMENT BOLSTERS OLYMPIC COVERAGE

With the Beijing Olympics literally around the corner, a truck-load of new equipment has conveniently arrived in the nick of time.

To make sure none of the action is missed, new ARRI lighting, including Arrisun 200 (Pocket Par HMI kits) and a whole lot of tungsten lights are waiting to be put to use. Our studio equipment has been given a boost with Vinten studio pedestals Osprey Elite and Hawk. Widescreen triax camera chains with lenses are in stock and a Panther Evolution Dolly with the much sought after Panther Precision Tracks has arrived.

We also have a very flash new compact 5-camera OB-Van (OBV3) equipped with everything you’d expect and more - including five 16:9/4:3 LDK triax cameras and separate video and audio compartments. The recent arrivals not only enhance our Olympic studio operations, but also enable complicated or complex requests to be met. All can be rented-out individually.

2008 BEIJING OLYMPICS - the countdown begins ...

Securing a birds-eye view for the Games' one year countdown celebrations in Tian'an Men Square, we provided live feeds for both ARD and ORF. A second exclusive live position was set-up for the EBU, broadcasting directly from the Square itself. Our prime locations assured BBC, Televisa and Finish TV viewers (amongst others) an insider's perspective on all of the action.
