Changes

Here are how things work. One week prior to the athletic event, we will send emails to members to sign up for the assignment. A production crew is selected fro that assignment on a first-come-first-served basis, but if a member is experienced, he/she may be given preference. Around Wednesday, selected members are notified. On Saturday afternoon (usually), the production crew spends 3-4 hours on the assignment. Two people are on the cameras and one person at the controls control at a time. They rotate during half-time. On the following Monday, they fill out the time cards at the Sports Information Office.

Here are some of the photos for the ice-hockey game on March 28, 2009. A 5five-member crew worked on the assignment, with assistance from Jim Schultz from Pittsfield TV. We had two HD cameras, a Mac Book Pro for video switching and a PC for previews and score updates. We worked on an elevated platform about 20 feet above the ground.
