We need a live streaming technician to fill in for us for a two day project in mid September in the LA area. You will be working with a production team that will give you a 1080i SDI cable that you will input into a Blackmagic ATEM switcher. We will provide the Blackmagic ATEM switcher. The output of the ATEM switcher will go to a Teredek “VidiU Go” live stream encoder with CORE bonding. The CORE bonding software interface will be setup with two CDN’s (live streaming providers) which will be Vimeo as the main and WOWZA as the backup. We will provide the two CDN’s plus the Teredek Video Go cellular bandwidth. You control The ATEM switcher with a PC running on vMix so you can see and record the feed coming from the SDI cable.
The last part is you will be given two pre-recorded videos. Both pre-recorded videos will be in mp4 format. The first one is 30 minutes long that you will live stream 30 minutes before the show goes live. The second pre-recorded video is 30 seconds long that you will live stream immediately after the show ends with a fade to black. You will be given a headset for realtime communication with the production team director so you can give him a cue when the 30 minute pre-recorded video ends so he can go live and he can cue you when he ends the show with a fade to black. The pre-recorded videos playback device will be a second computer running OBS and sent to the ATEM switcher through a Blackmagic UltraStudio Monitor 3G adapter. We will provide the Blackmagic UltraStudio Monitor 3G adapter. The live streams don’t last more than 2 hours but you must arrive at least 5 hours early on the first day while the production team is setting up so you can setup and do sound check, test the SDI signal and confirm your headset to communicate with the production team director is working and coming in clear.
We prefer to work with live stream technicians who do this for a living which means they own a lot of their own equipment. Pay is $750.00 per day.
