TNDV and GameTime Productions Accentuate Value of Local Crewing for TCL REMI Model

TCL Team Boxing League Decision CameraTNDV, a leading entertainment-based mobile and REMI production company, joined forces with sister company GameTime Productions to provide technical crewing and fly pack production services for TCL Team Boxing League’s third TV season, carried on Merit TV. TNDV and GameTime resources were deployed to various venues across the country in support of ringside content acquisition and live program delivery to TCL’s REMI broadcast facility, located at The Plex production facility in Fort Worth.

TNDV and GameTime, both Nashville-based divisions of Live Media Group (along with Columbus, Ohio-based Live Media) developed an on-site production strategy that favored minimal infrastructure and local technicians across all venues. TNDV shipped two fly packs with cameras, switching, routing, audio and support gear between venues on a rotational basis, giving TCL a professional yet budget-friendly solution that removed road transport costs and required minimal TNDV technicians.

GameTime Productions organized local technical crews in each city to execute TCL’s vision, typically operating four TNDV-supplied HD camera systems (including a jib) and TNDV’s flypack gear. Local venues provided the network infrastructure to relay video and audio signals to TCL’s REMI broadcast facility over the public internet.

The efficiency-driven crewing and technology strategy assured a smooth and consistent operation throughout the season, with few adjustments required. “We occasionally changed the camera complement or would base the size of our jib on venue layout or available space,” said Rob Devlin, President, TNDV. “The careful planning and consideration in collaboration with our GameTime partners set the stage for a well-executed endeavor with manageable customer costs.”

GameTime’s expertise in sourcing local production talent untimely ensured success, especially considering the rural nature of select Season 3 venues. “GameTime brings the benefit of elasticity, so we can easily scale up or adjust when working from a standard spec,” said Jenny Evans, Director of Operations, GameTime Productions. “For TCL Team Boxing League it was more about the nuances, like accounting for crew rest time during the longer double-match days. Our ability to scale up or down, along with our production logistics skillset, makes us an agile production partner that can remove the burden of complex and time-consuming coordination.”
