67 - Migrating An All-Virtual Plant With YES Network's Jason Marshall

The sports video industry is in a period of tremendous change. 4K/UHD, HDR, IP, OTT. There's lot of opportunity to be had and gambles to be taken. That brings us to our subject today: the YES Network. You know the YES Network as one of, if not the biggest, regional sports network in the country. In 2018, the network elected to migrate its production plant to an all-virtual environment. Today on the show we go through that entire experience with Jason Marshall, Project Manager, Broadcast Systems for the YES Network. What were the challenges? What were the lessons learned? How's it gone since the project's completion?
