The communications flexibility critical for remote production operation in Videe SpA’s new OBX 4K HDR OB van is being provided by Riedel’s Artist-1024 digital matrix intercom system and Bolero wireless intercom.
As a top-end OB production system joining the Italian broadcast market, OBX is designed to provide host broadcasting services for major live sporting, music, cultural, and entertainment events worldwide. Integrating smoothly into the van’s IP infrastructure, the Artist and Bolero systems along with 36 RSP-2318 SmartPanels, onboard OBX Videe play a critical role by enabling clear communications tailored to the requirements of each production.
‘Videe SpA is well known for its ability to leverage cutting-edge technologies to achieve the performance and functionality essential to demanding remote productions,’ says Riedel Communications Italy Sales Manager, Giuseppe Angilello. ‘With Artist and Bolero, we’ve delivered on both counts to bring clear, flexible, and reliable communications to Videe’s new OB van. As a true, native 4K unit, OBX Videe has the power and sophistication to support the most challenging projects — and the ease of use, compact size, and straightforward configuration of our intercom systems make them an ideal fit.’
OBX Videe is a triple-expanding mobile production unit that can support up to 30 cameras. Based on client requirements, the van can be configured with dual control rooms or as one large, 75sq-m production area that can accommodate up to 36 onboard team members.
‘The Riedel name is synonymous with reliability, efficiency, versatility, and usability in the intercom domain, and the company is a long-time Videe partner,’ says Bruno Mercuri, Videe SpA President and founder. ‘We choose and rely on Riedel because of the company’s innovative approach and its constant commitment to developing the best technologies for broadcast requirements. That´s what Videe expects from its providers because that’s what Videe is expected to provide to its own clients.’
Paola Montanari, CEO at Videe, adds: ‘OBX introduces a new era in the broadcast industry and a truly innovative production approach that combines high performance, premium comfort, and full reliability. Uncompromisingly.’
The OB van was engineered for the future by Videe and systems integrator, Chromaline.
