Bexel, a unit of the Vitec Group\u2019s Services Division, has purchased two Dreamcatcher systems from Evertz. The acquisition serves as a cornerstone for Bexel\u2019s new 4K solutions, which provide turnkey packages that will be available to augment any major sporting event or live production broadcast.<\/p>\n
Bexel says Dreamcatcher represents the next generation in slow-motion replay technology and offers real-world 4K benefits. The product provides enhanced storytelling capabilities by allowing a production team to capture an event from all angles, without ever missing a moment of action. When 4K cameras are used, Dreamcatcher\u2019s zoom capability lets broadcasters zero in on the action and extract an HD image from a larger 4K frame. This high resolution zoom ability allows broadcasters to enhance the narrative and definitive coverage of close calls at sporting events. When used in conjunction with Evertz\u2019 patent-pending tracking feature, the 4K zoom functionality enables a totally unique replay experience. Dreamcatcher\u2019s proprietary Mosaic function synchronizes multiple angles that can be played out with the press of a single button, allowing a captured event to be shown from brand new perspectives.<\/p>\n
Tom Dickinson, CTO of Bexel, comments, \u201cBexel is a leader in building server systems for a myriad of sporting events, and the addition of Dreamcatcher is a natural expansion of our offerings \u2013 and it\u2019s ready for 4K now. Dreamcatcher will be available to our customers as part of a customized solution that will deliver an elegant, streamlined 4K package that can be integrated into a sports production easily, and play a key role in providing 4K replay for live events. Dreamcatcher is a great storytelling tool that employs state-of-the-art technology to allow broadcasters to use 4K to its fullest extent on an HD production.\u201d<\/p>\n
Evertz\u2019 Joe Cirincione, VP Sales\u2013U.S. Sports and Entertainment, who has been on over a dozen shoots including the Super Bowl and Daytona 500, says, \u201cDreamcatcher allows an audience to experience an event like never before, and we know that it will make a perfect addition to Bexel\u2019s offerings. We have enjoyed a long and successful relationship with Bexel, and we are very pleased they have chosen Dreamcatcher.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWe engage many Evertz products in our systems and solutions,\u201d concludes Dickinson. \u201cThis is a logical expansion for Bexel and the Dreamcatcher\u2019s features augment the sports experience in exciting new ways, and for live content replay and multi-screen output for award shows as well as other live events. We\u2019re thrilled to add this to our fleet of solutions.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
