The Games that got the +1 treatment. An Olympiad with masks and social distancing, in a city of cutting edge technology. The Tokyo 2020(1) Olympic Games is here – plus 4K UHD HDR, 3D Athlete Tracking, Intel drones and 30% increase in broadcasting from 2016… how did they do it?
Join me as I take a deep dive (after putting down my knitting yarn) as we explore how one of the biggest operations in broadcasting brought the Games of the 32nd Olympiad from the land of the rising sun to your screens, wherever you were!
Fernand’s Live Show Show – the show taking a look at the cool creative madness happening behind the scenes in live TV.
And apologies in advance for my superb(!) Japanese!
