METRO PROVIDE EUROPE WITH MULTICAMERA EQUIPMENT

METRO BROADCAST led the UK by providing state-of-the-art High-Definition multicamera equipment into Europe, on August 11 2001.
Produced by Done and Dusted and staged at the Mungersdorf stadium in Cologne, Germany, the Robbie Williams concert was captured using 15 Sony High-Definition cameras following Metro’s success in supplying the UK’s first ever multi-camera High-Definition shoot to an S Club 7 concert earlier this summer.
Metro sourced six of the camcorders from the Continent using their global agency, Eurocrew Worldwide, whilst obtaining the other nine from various hire companies in England and Wales.
Having managed the first multicamera High-Definition shoot, the main challenges were logistical.
The highly mobile and compact 2.2 million pixel acquisition and recording solution offers superb picture quality efficiently packed onto a half inch tape.
The concert will be post-produced by The Farm for release on DVD and video at a later date. (CD)
