Brief:

Consult on scenic video systems setup for the new studio at The Shopping Channel.

Train in-house graphic artists on the use of Adobe AfterEffects to create dynamic video backdrops for broadcast video.

When they moved into their beautiful new state-of-the-art studios at the Shopping Channel the use of video backdrops and media servers was a new untapped world for the creators at the channel. I came in and spent some time with the studio technicians on the final calibration and feel of the video backdrops. I also had a fun time working with the designers walking them through the use of AfterEffects to create dynamic motion backdrops. The video screens and Archaos media servers that power them were designed, spec’d and installed by Peter Ireland and the amazing team at PRG Toronto
