Blackmagic Design today announced that The Joyce Theater, a 472 seat dance and performance venue in the heart of Manhattan, relies on Blackmagic Micro Studio Camera 4K G2 and numerous Blackmagic Design converters to create archival footage of performances. The footage is used by dance companies for daily notes, as a record of a particular performance, or for teaching purposes for new dancers or stage managers.
Since opening in 1982, The Joyce has supported the dance community by providing a home for more than 400 domestic and international companies and by offering an annual 45 to 48 week season, which allows more than 150,000 audience members annually to experience diverse, popular and challenging performances. According to The Joyce’s Director of Production, Jeff Segal, the theater has long been providing quality archival recordings of performances from its front of house monitor feed but recently upgraded its workflow to a digital recording format using Blackmagic Micro Studio Camera 4K G2, Teranex Mini Audio to SDI 12G converter, HyperDeck Studio HD Plus broadcast recorder and various Blackmagic Design Mini Converters.
“In the past, we recorded to VHS and then to DVD, but as digital files are the prevailing format, we updated our own workflow. Having become familiar with Blackmagic Design products during the pandemic when we were streaming projects from the theater, we knew that Blackmagic equipment would be reliable and appropriate for what we were looking to do,” said Segal.
