FAA - NBAA Livestream
When a high-stakes live announcement is on the line, organizations turn to In Color Studios — the go-to production company for reliable on-location live streaming. Recently, In Color Studios handled a critical live broadcast of an FAA announcement from the Las Vegas Convention Center (LVCC), a project that demanded precision planning, top-tier gear, and flawless execution.
Live broadcasting from a venue like LVCC comes with unique challenges: dense RF environments, unpredictable venue networks, strict security protocols, and high expectations from both organizers and viewers. For a government regulator’s announcement, there is no room for error. In Color Studios approached the job with a detailed pre-production plan that accounted for site scans, contingency routing, staging, and coordination with venue technical staff and security teams.
High-quality video and audio were non-negotiable. The crew deployed broadcast-grade cameras with professional lenses, multicamera switching, and clean signal paths to ensure crisp visuals from multiple angles. Audio rigs included lavaliers for on-camera talent, ambient mics for room tone, and redundant mixers—ensuring the announcer’s message remained intelligible even in a bustling convention environment. Proper mic placement and audio checks were completed well before go-time to eliminate last-minute issues.
Power and portability were also key. In Color Studios brought portable battery stations and power management solutions to maintain continuous operation despite limited or restricted venue power access. These systems allowed the crew to position cameras and equipment exactly where needed without compromising uptime.
Most importantly, the broadcast backbone relied on In Color Studios’ specialty: robust bonded streaming. Their standard four-way bonded stream combines Ethernet, venue Wi‑Fi, and two independent cellular networks. This multi-path approach aggregates bandwidth and provides seamless failover—if one link degrades, the stream holds steady on the remaining connections. The result is a resilient live feed with minimal latency and no disruptive buffering, crucial for time-sensitive announcements.
Redundancy extended beyond connectivity. On-site encoding devices, backup encoders, and mirrored recording ensured both live delivery and archival-quality masters. A dedicated monitoring team watched stream health in real time, ready to swap routes or troubleshoot instantly.
When the FAA announcement went live, viewers experienced a stable, professional broadcast with clear video and crystal audio—exactly what organizers required. In Color Studios’ meticulous preparation, broadcast-grade equipment, power solutions, and four-way bonded streaming produced a flawless result.
For any organization needing dependable on-location live streaming—especially for critical or government events—In Color Studios offers the technical expertise and infrastructure to guarantee uptime and deliver a polished, professional broadcast every time.
