Hackathon Live stream crew for Tailwind & UK retailer

Mark has been working with the team from Tailwind Productions again to provide a live stream mixing solution for a Hackathon event at the HQ of a major UK retailer in Welwyn Garden City.

Mark travelled up and spent the first day setting up for the following two-day event, which featured live-streaming of teams working on solving complex tasks and presenting on the use of AI and other solutions for achieving goals using technology. The event was streamed live online for colleagues around the world. The hackathon was an opportunity for participants to create ideas that would improve the customer experience.
The event showcased the creativity and technical skills of the participants.

The event used Tailwind's own cameras, camera crews, production management and audio kit, but Mark provided the Blackmagic 4k Atem Mixer set-up and UHD SDI cabling to allow the live mix to go ahead smoothly.

If you need equipment or vision mixing or camera crew to help with your livestream event, get in touch with Maniac Films and we can discuss your needs.
