Project: Orienteering & TV in the Future
The goal of the "Orienteering & TV in the Future" project is to increase the quality of TV broadcasts from orienteering races and raise the standards by increasing knowledge and making best practice manuals.
This work includes:
- Gathering information and opinions from TV people/producers
- Gather and "review" previous international and national TV-productions to identify concepts that work/do not work
- Description and practical use of known technical solutions
- Matching disciplines with production concepts - set up "scripts" for TV-productions
- Identify future research & development areas - especially related to technical solutions (e.g. tracking, virtual runners 3D graphics, wireless cameras etc.)
- Get support from as many related groups/people as possible in order to collect information and opinions
One important tool in the project is the webpage orienteering-tv.net. The webpage is a wiki-type page - the project hopes to get a group of contributors building up knowledge in this field which is very important for the future of the sport.
