The Live Event Video Technician
covers terms, format types, concepts, and technologies used in video
production for corporate meetings, concerts, special events, and
theatrical productions.
The book begins by providing a
history of the industry and an overview of important roles and
functions therein. It then discusses various display technologies such
as LED walls and video projection, as well as video systems for
converting and switching of various types of sources. Presenting the
cornerstone formats, connectors, and methodologies of visual technology,
this book offers a strong foundation to help readers navigate this
ever-changing field. Written in an accessible tone, the book clarifies
jargon and is an overarching source of knowledge for the role of the
video technician, for which there has previously been little formal
training.
The Live Event Video Technician
provides a wealth of practical information for students of media and
communications courses, readers with a novice or entry-level
understanding of video and AV production, and anyone with an interest in
working as technical personnel in live event production.
