When a global leader like Microsoft hosts a major event, expectations are extremely high. gassProductions was proud to be specifically requested by Vibration Production to deliver technical video production for this flagship experience, organised by Momentum Worldwide.
Project Requirements
The event required a robust, high-quality four-camera IMAG and ISO recording solution. This content supported live display, streaming and post-event distribution. Furthermore, the system needed to operate seamlessly across multiple event spaces.
🎬 Services Provided
-
🎥 Four-camera IMAG and ISO production
-
🛰️ Live streaming via Microsoft’s RTMP-based CDN
-
📡 Bonded network setup (Ethernet, Wi-Fi & 4G) with cloud failover
-
🎛️ Portable production unit with full camera shading and racking
-
💾 ISO recording of all camera feeds + slides + backup audio
-
📦 10TB drive prepared and shipped to Microsoft post-event
-
🎧 Independent comms ring for director and camera crew
Production Approach
To meet the brief, gassProductions deployed a multi-camera system consisting of:
-
3 long-throw operated cameras
-
1 wireless roaming camera
-
2 PTZ cameras (audience reverse and wide lock-off)
All feeds were routed through our portable production unit (PPU), which included a 3kVA UPS and central vision mixing systems. This setup allowed full remote shading and racking across all cameras.
Streaming & Redundancy
We streamed the live programme using a redundant four-encoder setup. The system bonded Ethernet, Wi-Fi and 4Gnetworks to guarantee reliability. In addition, a cloud-based failover system automatically switched streams in the event of disruption. As a result, Microsoft received an uninterrupted broadcast via its RTMP-based CDN.
File Delivery & Handover
Alongside the live stream, we captured ISO recordings of every camera feed, the programme mix, all slide content and backup audio.
A dedicated 10TB drive containing all assets was prepared and shipped to Microsoft, with full backups retained in line with our data retention policy.
Final Outcome
This project demonstrates gassProductions’ capability to deliver enterprise-level live video solutions with precision, reliability and technical excellence — even for one of the world’s most recognisable brands.
