OB:Woodstock 2010
Woodstock 2010 will be in Vanbrugh as usual. Currently the suggestion is to to focus all our efforts on the main stage, with maybe a wide shot or something on the indoor stage.
Main Stage
- Someone needs to contact the organisers well before the event to tell them we NEED POWER for cameras!!!! DONE! We have up to ~3.5A at the main stage
- 2 HD's
- as roaming
- 1 HD as dollycam
- only if space between crowd barrier & tent is adequate.
- haggle if necessary, but woodstock will be packed, and they shall be of higher importance to us - our job is to make the pictures a success, given available space.
- 1 Howard. Dependent on output and 4:3 / 16:9 decision
- suspended from rig
- bring cable ties, lots of cable ties
- Miranda (sky)
- as wide
on balcony per usualIn V139, pointing out of the window.- Cable run could be out of the V120 window, over the balcony, in V139 window - avoids going out of the door, needing haz tape etc.)
- canon on balcony?
- eg for presenters, and jugglesoc etc near the lake in the Langwith direction if they're there again, and rear shot of audience - tree in full bloom obscures the stage
- may need to bring OB lighting rig for presenters.
- power from event
- bring the 16a > 13a's distro board
- projector
- find out where the projector(s) is, and possibly where the screen is from RAG
- just feed it composite
- Preview TVs --Malcolm.chambers 12:54, 30 May 2010 (UTC)
- For discussion
- Dependent on having at least one spare (we should do as we have PiP, and more tvs than we did last year.
- I (Malcolm) would advise one 6" or ~14" for the two cameras at the front of the stage, the small, home-made, 12V testing monitor for the camera at the side.
Indoor Stage
- A wide shot
- Probably with the small sony or panasonic handheld camera
- Dependent on the 4:3/16:9 Howard decission, Hoaward may serve as the wide shot.
Cams at back sidesTwo MS5s/MS4s at the front- Probably the small panasonic or sony handheld camera viewing drummer
- not many crew, so focus on main stage
- Take event sound via URY (organised, mono, balanced, hopefully remixed by URY)
Use to cut between act on main stageAim to have separate broadcasts: Main and indoor.- can only easily interchange between them if both are 4:3
- Tom Trolley Rig (in the control room or possibly V122 to isolate the two control rooms)
Roomspace
- Woodstock have 'pretty much booked out all of Vanburgh's upstairs' for us & URY (from friday onwards)
- We'll certainly have V120 (main room overlooking the walkway with roof
- V139 for large sony camera, serves as wide shot of main stage
- V122 useful for access to JCR roof for URY audio run, maybe editing, windows are useful for many video leads
- V113 (access to, not necessarily use of) hopefully just for a cable run for the broadcast monitors in some of Vanbrugh
- URY are in the SCR, they're possibly also V119
URY
- Mono balanced from indoor stage
- Stereo balanced (pre-presenters) from main stage
- Aren't allowed to use their broadcast due to licencing, music copyright etc.
- Run them a video feed to the SCR - probably also give them the tv to display it on if we've got any spare
Commercial stuff
- Needs to happen
- let people know its happening
- DVD's?
VT's
- Back archive of stuff to play if there's a pause - e.g. "now lets watch 2007"
- On a per song basis, with some full sets - no-one can tell for definate how long a changeover will be!
- Dependent on Howard 4:3/16:9 indoor/main useage - All Vt's to be used must be put into a 16:9 project, with black bars down sides
- This means they get squished (in editing), and unsquished (in broadcast), rather than just unsquished in broadcast
- Thus maintaining a respectable aspect ratio, and displaying all of the image...
Streamage
- Both stages
- Use new strm0
- Use an Edit PC
Presenting and stuff
- head of organisation - Viv.C
- some notes about bands
- Gaps:
- Main stage - 5-20 mins
- Indoor stage - sporadic! !! 16:9 and 4:3 difficulties unless one of th spare pcs can do contemporaneous 4:3 -> 16:9 conversion !!
- Base at balcony
- link between sets & Vt's of sets
- possibly band interviews if can catch any
- recorded to tape, probably on a canon dv, then hastily edited as a vt.
Comms
- give to presenters not cam Ops - cam ops can be clever
- Clever signalling solution needed. - IE probably waving out of the V120 window in the case of presenters/camera ops on the balcony
Gazebo
- Stick on balcony - for rains
- Backup = go inside.
Top n' tailing
- Use spare Edit OC
Happy crew equipment
- Denton Boom - Balmer
- O.B. Party box - communal noms
YUSU Plasma's
- Cullen to talk to yusu IT GUYS. be very very persuassive.

- Soldering irom
- Solder!
- Crimp kit
- BNC Crimpers

- everyone gets a different colour, so when packing up, we know who coils odd
- I hope it's not me
- It'll look nice too
- on a more serious note, any taping we do that people will see should be black, and "haz'd" where appropriate.
- different colours!
