NEP Connect Brings 'Dancing On Ice' To ITV Viewers
NEP Connect has worked with ITV Studios over the past 10 weeks to bring hit show 'Dancing on Ice' to millions of viewers across the UK.
The show is produced in a purpose-built, semi-permanent studio space and production infrastructure at Bovingdon Airfield, a former airfield south of Hemel Hempstead, Hertfordshire.
An essential technical requirement for bringing Dancing on Ice to the ITV viewers each week was to install permanent media fibre connectivity.
NEP Connect's Anylive® fibre network connects more than 150 sport, music and event venues across the UK and has proven its value across a vast number of live productions.
NEP Connect installed a 1GB Anylive fibre to serve as the main connectivity hub with a satellite truck serving as a backup. The connectivity was established in close cooperation with the host OB company Telegenic, to ensure live connectivity for the show every Sunday.
A high-speed managed link was established from the Bovingdon facility allowing a tailored workflow to ITV Studios' specific post-production requirements for efficient and secure remote ingest.
An additional Anylive hub which was installed, managed and monitored by NEP Connect provided permanent internet broadband for onsite wi-fi for production and the OB crew via a 10GB Anylive pipe. Telephony, corporate internet, security CCTV, comms, 4-wire talkback and connectivity for the crucial public vote team are also provided.
NEP Connect's Managing Director David Meynell added: "The economic benefits of remote production are readily apparent, but the exciting part - the creative production possibilities - are only beginning to be explored and appear to be almost endless. Anylive's ring network topology ensures that services are always provided by the most efficient route, which eliminate a major step – and potential point of failure – in live production."
