MetLife Event
NEW YORK CITY, Ny- Ferro Productions traveled to Bryant Park in New York City last Friday to cover a ceremony held by MetLife which celebrated the company’s purchasing of the naming rights to the former New Meadowlands Stadium. Under it’s new name, MetLife Stadium, the building will serve it’s second season as a home to one of Ferro’s biggest clients, the New York Giants, as well as the New York Jets this year. On the Giant’s behalf, Ferro was sent to the event to cover the entire ceremony, which featured players and coaches from both NFL teams.
With four camera operators covering the event the Ferro crew never missed a beat, even while streaming the feed from one of their cameras live to Giants.com using the LiveU portable uplink system. In a lightweight pack that sits on your back like any standard size book bag, the LiveU system allows you to stream live video to the internet from virtually any location without sacrificing picture quality.
While using a new piece of technology like LiveU for the first time might add some unwanted nerves to a shoot, the Ferro crew was able to send every minute of the ceremony to giants.com without hitting any bumps along the way. The rest of the footage shot by Ferro Productions is set to be cut into a package that will be sent over to the people at MetLife for their own use.
