IS IT TIME TO USE CINEMA CAMERAS FOR YOUR LIVE PRODUCTION?

Cinema cameras from manufacturers like ARRI, RED, and Sony are increasingly finding their way into live multi-camera productions- from theaters and concert venues to houses of worship and other live events. 

The appeal is easy to understand: cinematic image quality, greater creative control, and a visual style that can help a production stand out. But are these cameras now affordable and practical enough to replace- or complement- traditional broadcast cameras? 

In this episode of Broadcast2Post, we’ll examine what is driving the move toward cinema cameras in live production and whether the benefits justify the added complexity. 

FROM THE EXPERTS THAT SUPPORT TEAMS AT:

What You Will Learn:

  • Why more live productions are adopting cinema cameras

  • How large sensors, shallow depth of field, dynamic range, and lens choices affect a live production
  • The operational challenges of using cinema cameras in a multi-camera environment
  • What to consider around shading, camera matching, tally, intercom, synchronization, latency, recording, and control 
  • The hidden costs that can change the total price of a cinema-camera system
  • When a hybrid approach may make more sense than replacing every camera
