I feel like Blackmagic should bring their van to schools and stuff. Fully load it with broadcast gear to allow students a hands on broadcasting experience. Just spitballing
Thanks John, wish you were here to check it out that day. You need some of them Ursa Broadcast cameras with Studio and Fiber converters - they're calling your name :Mort :Mort :Mort! :) Hope all is well!
This is a fantastic truck. I love it and have a lot of the gear similar to or as seen here, but who can integrate all my BMD gear into my truck properly? Answer me that!
Maybe US market is different but here in Europe TVs won't buy this for multiple of reasons. And for private broadcasters this is still a very expensive solution. Of course it is cheaper then 3 000 000€ 8 cam OB Truck from GrassValley but big TVs dont really care. It is like saying dont buy your own Boeing 737 buy this Eclipse 550 instead for the fraction of the price. I am doing studio and ob setups for private companies and I always recommend them this solution from BMD but answer is always the same. Price of this setup with 5-6 cams is around 400 000-500 000€ which is a lot for a private broadcaster, since they might get payed 1000-3000€ (with 50% revenue if they are lucky) per one day job. Also demand is not that great for multicamera production. BMD is covering this middle part of the market between expensive TV production and completelly basic multicamera work with few guys with their cameras via HDMI hooked to a mixer. Like I said US market is probably different but here in EU I cant see any market available for this type of work (for adequate money of course).
Thanks for the comment! Good to know. The Blackmagic van showcases a lot of gear that would not go in a typical OB van. It is cool though to be able to let customers see so many of their products in one place besides a trade show. The customers we see typically have a fraction of the gear shown: a basic switcher, some decks, a clean switch, maybe some comms and another brand of encoder (LiveU, Teradek etc). Thanks again for the comment and best of luck in all your shows!
That was pretty cool

That's a great idea! We'll pass that along to our reps inside of BMD. Thank you for the suggestion.
DVeStore, Inc. awesome! Thanks! Keep up the content!
@@dvestore What did they say about the idea?
Ah, the sound of 250 Blackmagic cooling fans all running at the same time. Often confused for a 747 taking off.
i just took a deep breath when you opened the van door
that’s awesome, you were preparing yourself for amazing. Hope that it fulfilled!
That's a van i'd be happily lured into
This is Easy and portable. BlackMagic Atem has made broadcasting easy and fun.
Super cool Guy! Hope you’re doing terrific!

anyone else find the cars driving backwards semi trippy?
When would this be maxed out. Like what kind of event and amount of cameras would take advantage of everything in that van. Generally curious thx!

@Mark urban - i would like to learn a lot from you sir.
Two more thing is to add is your Replay system for sports production and Graphics system for overlays
Wonder how much that truck's insurance costs? Do they sell that mobile case with the ATEM HD and Hperdecks or is that a custom-built pelican case?
not a pelican case it’s a flycase
Does Blackmagic have these vans available for Sale?
i think those price lists are an indication that the van is a rolling showroom
