Behind the Broadcast: Brady Jones IV and the Technology Powering Live Sports S4 Ep2 #17

In this episode of Professional Perspectives, we sit down with Brady Jones IV, a two-time Emmy Award–winning EVS replay operator, educator, and LSM-VIA ambassador who has spent over a decade working behind the scenes of the biggest moments in sports. Based in Atlanta, Brady has worked on major championships across the NFL, NBA, MLB, NCAA Men’s Basketball, and more. Recording during Super Bowl weekend, Brady takes us inside what it’s really like working in live sports production. We talk about his most memorable career moments, how LeBron James inspired his path, and the role technology plays in shaping the broadcasts fans see every day. He also explains what it means to be an LSM-VIA ambassador and how he helps bridge the gap between operators and developers to improve efficiency in live production environments. As high school hosts, our mission at Professional Perspectives is to expand the professional perspectives of high school and college students choosing a career. Brady’s story highlights a lesser-known but critical side of the sports industry and shows how technical skill, preparation, and passion can lead to an exciting career behind the camera.
