Addi Telecom launches the new MediaLab of the Camilo José Cela University

This facility is comprised of a Full HD production studio with two sets operated by three cameras, an editing room with ten workstations, a digital radio studio and a multimedia room.

The Camilo José Cela University has launched a laboratory on its Madrid-Villafranca Campus aimed at facilitating internships for communication students. This Medialab has been designed and integrated by Addi Telecom forming a multimedia space for the generation of content and the teaching of classes in a real simulation environment. To this end, the guidelines established by the university for the new university degrees in communication in the informative, artistic and creative aspects have been followed, which must respond adequately to the demanding challenges that students will have to address when they go on the market.

The Medialab is made up of a Full HD production studio in which there are two sets with 3 cameras JVC GY-HM890 configured as an HD TV studio and teleprompter, an editing room with 10 Apple workstations, a digital radio studio, a multimedia room, as well as several ENG cameras, including JVC's GY-HM200, which are also integrated into the TV production environment.

All areas of the Medialab are interconnected through a Full HD/2K digital matrix that facilitates the integration of all the functions of any of them, being also communicated not only digitally, but also with intercom between workstations. The project has contemplated a single global storage for all editions and playout systems Playbox of TV and AEQ for radio.

The camera system solution adopted for the sets is based on the GY-HM890 hybrid camera, which allows full configuration flexibility for TV studio work, as a shoulder-mounted EFP or ENG camera. In the UCJC MediaLab, the GY-HM890 cameras have wide-angle optics Fujinon 20X, JVC VF-HP790G HD 8.4" viewfinders and KA-M790G component/SDI output adapters that connect to the RM-HP790 camera control units in the production control. The cameras also carry the TVPrompt Estudio 17 teleprompter from Addi Telecon, which allows reading up to 8.6 meters, with all its controls and TVPrompt-PBX software, all integrated with the Playbox system.

This camera model and its corresponding CCU allow you to use existing Sony or JVC 26-pin multicore cables, although it was not necessary here since it was a new installation. The GY-HM890 cameras also allow fiber adapters to be attached. The GY-HM890 camera allows you to record content on SDHC/SDXC cards in a dual slot, both in SD and HD. The dual-slot system provides simultaneous recording at 2 different resolutions, allowing you to record and generate a streaming at the same time.
