Groundbreaking, literally! Watch below as dignitaries at the University of South Florida turned the soil on the campus’ new football stadium. Gemstone Media and our embedded crew at USF covered the entire event.
“What an honor to provide live streaming support to the University of South Florida’s historic groundbreaking of the on-campus football stadium!” says George Birnbaum, Gemstone Media CEO and Founder. “Our staff made this complex remote event–-which was a constant moving target of activity–-appear seamless, as we revealed to the world the beginning of a bold new era.”
David Hall, Gemstone Media Operations Manager, adds, “What a fantastic event to be a part of: perfect weather, a great crowd, and excitement everywhere. First-class event and first-class coverage. I’m very proud of the Gemstone Media team that live streamed the entire event to ESPN+. Great job, everyone!”
Not only are we thrilled about the groundbreaking and coverage you see here, Gemstone Media looks forward to working in this new venue, as we are currently consulting on the in-stadium broadcast facilities. This is a wonderful opportunity for us to design an optimal setup from the ground to air, including cable routing and connectivity, video and audio layout, and many more details that will enhance and define USF’s broadcasts for years to come.
Stay tuned, as we say, for more on that!
