An amazing setup and operation. My compliments! Am doing something similar though less elaborate, hosting church meetings and special events for live streaming using vMix and a combination of Zoom and vMixCall run from my basement. Multiple control surfaces for audio and video mix as well as graphics and effects using stream decks, an X-Touch Universal, and a Newtek LC-11 controller. A software package on my main production computer ties them all together to control vMix. Graphics and additional effects from a second local computer via NDI. Feeds to and from other remote production setups via SRT links to expand operations. vMix has been amazing in this regard. I still prefer to use hardware setups where possible though, Blackmagic mainly.

If there is a link that describes this, then please let me know. Thanks - Chris
@wcg6633 жыл бұрын
have you thought about using multiple virtualized zoom drones on one system instead of multiple separate systems? it seems like having separate drones could get expensive and space inefficient with all the separate laptops, you could also use nucs or sffpcs for more space efficiency if virtualization is too complicated for capture, although you could always passthrough independent display adapters
@A2ZProductions3 жыл бұрын
Hey there! Yes we have definitely thought through a bunch of different ways of making the zoom drones more cost effect and space efficient. Just a couple reasons we use 8 dedicated MacBook pros, multiple monitor outputs even though we don’t use them all the time and the computers can actually handle the bandwidth of them. Reliability and ecosystem. Separating out computers in case of failure or loss of connection (all computers can/do failure do weird things from time to time). Multi purpose computers and platform agnostic. we will put computers out of studio for other temporary setups, rentals, other events, testing, etc. plenty more reasons to touch on and talk about but it is definitely not the most cost efficient, but does make a lot of sense for us and all of our random needs and use cases. Hope that makes sense.

@A2ZProductions3 жыл бұрын
Here on KZbin watching channels like ours is a great way... The best way is to find companies that already have the gear you want to learn. Better if it's a company that contracts labor. Tell them you're looking for work and want to make yourself more valuable to them by learning their gear and systems. In most cases, companies like ours need to pay people for training or have them learn on the job. I'd bet most companies would gladly give you some free training or at least allow you to come in and train yourself on their gear. When people do that with us not only do they get to learn, they also move up significantly on our contractor list.

I believe those nine computers along the wall are all in the same zoom call as the nine participants. Each of them has pinned a participant to the top screen. Then the video from that screen is captured as a feed into the controlling vision switching computer. They are drones because they aren't individually intelligent at all they just sit there providing a feed of a single participant (I could be wrong)

There's so much here I can relate to - I was just beginning to develop livestreaming for our organisation when the pandemic hit and suddenly I had to learn real quick (we are an NHS trust in the UK and getting live information to our workers was vital). Due to the tight security protocols we have in the NHS, we couldn't use Zoom and instead everything was done via Microsoft Teams, which at the start of the pandemic, was way behind Zoom in terms of capabilities, but over time, Microsoft really got their act together. The game-changer was when they implemented NDI - now I could pull in separate NDI feeds for each person on the Teams call (like your drones) plus it would have an "active camera" NDI as well which auto-switched depending on who was talking. I used this in conjunction with Livestream Studio running to Vimeo and it was able to have a similar set up to yours using just two PCs, one operator (me!) and no switchers. This included being able to Supersource using the GFXs. The downside was the lack of redundancy mind - if either PC failed then options were more limited, but had an AJA Helo on standby to go to taking any feed I could. Anyway, I thought you might be interested in how smaller operations like mine managed to adapt but now those times are over I'm looking to move to a more hybrid solution with the new ATEM Constellations doing a lot of the work. Thank you for sharing this great behind the scenes video by the way - I will definitely be showing this to my bosses to show them that my setup was actually quite basic!
