SNEAKY BIG Uses Blackmagic Design to Produce Judge Jerry

PostThu May 20, 2021 4:44 pm

Blackmagic Design partnered with Arizona based studio SNEAKY BIG, working with NBCUniversal Syndication Studios (NBCU), to continue to produce new episodes of the hit TV show “Judge Jerry” during a global pandemic. The partnership resulted in a virtually produced “Judge Jerry,” which was effectively a “quarantine court” where litigants received “virtual verdicts.” The studio relied on Blackmagic Design’s Ultimatte 12 real time compositing processors to film in three different states and create a seamless, virtual courtroom experience.

SNEAKY BIG’s talented crew used standard field cameras to film the show’s second season. Each feed was sent back live to the studio where they were fed into five Ultimatte 12s, which produced the mattes. An Ultimatte Smart Remote 4 was also used during production, alongside six Teranex 2D Processor standards converters to standardize the video format.

“We are honored to have been a trusted partner for this groundbreaking project and to have helped set the bar for high quality, safe TV productions,” said SNEAKY BIG CEO Marianne Guenther. “For the past several years, the SNEAKY BIG team has been doing incredible work utilizing interactive, 3D virtual sets. It was an exciting experience to bring these capabilities to NBCU so their productions could continue.”
