Blackmagic Design today announced that Asahi Broadcasting Corporation is using Blackmagic URSA Broadcast G2 cameras, along with Blackmagic Camera Fiber Converters and ATEM Camera Control Panel, for its streaming programs.
Based in Osaka, Asahi Broadcasting Television is a key affiliate of the TV Asahi network and produces numerous popular programs, such as the hit comedy competition M-1 Grand Prix. The company also streams various content, including sports, and uses Blackmagic Design products for its streaming operations, such as the recent Kansai Big Six Baseball League tournament.
"Our decision to introduce equipment for streaming operations stemmed from the need for budget friendly options with satisfactory specifications compared to those used for regular broadcasts, which can be quite expensive," said Masaya Nagano, section chief of the Production Engineering Department at Asahi Broadcasting Corporation.
