AJA Bridge Live, hub of SRT streaming that helped produce HRVY's 'Behind Closed Doors'

Spiritland Productions and On Air have produced the concert broadcast Behind Closed Doors from HRVY using a real-time remote collaboration workflow with encryption SRT powered by AJA Bridge Live.

The production took place over the course of 72 hours at London's Royal Albert Hall. A Spiritland team, reduced to ensure social distancing, came forward to unload all the material needed for the production. Once everything was in place, production began using Bridge Live de AJA, multi-channel live video contribution solution.

UHD content of the event was captured using four cameras ARRI Amira and simultaneously converted to HD to be transported through a system Fiber Tx to one portable production unit. He feed Mixed video was then sent from a router to Bridge Live, system located in the mobile unit, so that the team could send On Air a feed Low latency SRT that included the feed main, a multi-view output, and a locked stage camera view. The On Air team, which received the signal for monitoring at its headquarters in the Netherlands, was able to check the entire broadcast live. Previously, he used this same workflow to prepare for the broadcast and provide feedback on lighting or sound issues.

To facilitate communications between teams in the field and in the On Air office abroad, Spiritland relied on a system Riedel connected to VoIP cards on your mobile unit and On Air. Once production was complete, the content was edited and made available to the public via a PPV stream from the Netherlands-based production company.

The director and co-founder of Spiritland, Antony Shaw, considers that production with Bridge Live of AJA "Having never used Bridge Live, and had only read the instructions to find the password to unlock it, I was impressed with how easy it was to get up and running. In just five minutes, all of our SRT streams were ready to go. We also loved how quiet it was compared to other solutions and how well it fit in our rack, not to mention the power redundancy it provided was fantastic." "AJA's Bridge Live provides the low latency that a job like this requires and helped reduce communications back-and-forth in the production review process. We've only just begun to discover the possibilities of Bridge Live and are looking forward to using it on future productions," adds Shaw.
