The university’s athletics department designed the new facility with Little Bay Broadcast, aiming for tapeless HD workflow that would also enable it to deliver live HD video to giant-screen display boards in Conte Forum.

The two Ikegami HDK-77EC field cameras will be used as the main HD game cameras. Both are outfitted with nine-inch Ikegami LCD color viewfinders, Canon 40X telephoto HD zoom lenses, and Ikegami CCU-890M camera-control units operating with SMPTE fiber connectivity.

BC’s GFCam HDS-V10 camcorder, meanwhile, will serve a dual purpose: It will be used as a hand-held unit to shoot games (connected to the new control room with a Telecast Fiber Systems fiber-optic extension) and as a stand-alone tapeless HD camcorder for electronic-newsgathering–style interviews with coaches and players.
