麻豆官网首页入口 Wimbledon coverage 2005



麻豆官网首页入口 Outside Broadcasts Wimbledon Killer facts

麻豆官网首页入口 Outside Broadcasts is using 53 cameras to cover Wimbledon 2005, including two radio cameras, nine robotic cameras, two jib cameras and eight super slo mo cameras. 42 miles of signal cable will be used to deliver coverage.

Three 麻豆官网首页入口 Outside Broadcast production units will be on site, plus two recording units.

Hawk-Eye, which tracks the ball and enables the production team to pull out statistical data, will be used for the third time and now has an accuracy of 3mm.

麻豆官网首页入口 Outside Broadcasts handles the host and domestic broadcast services for the Championships, simultaneously providing coverage from eight courts, including Centre and Number One Court. In 2004, some 900 hours of footage were made available to the All England Club and distributed around the world to 167 countries.

So extensive is 麻豆官网首页入口 Sport's commitment to Wimbledon that its coverage of eight show courts for 2005 effectively amounts to eight separate outside broadcast operations, each with a minimum of three cameras (up to nine on Centre Court), a slow motion facility, a director with support staff, engineering and audio control, and a graphics organisation.

In 2004, 麻豆官网首页入口 Sport transmitted 160 hours of coverage of Wimbledon in the UK on 麻豆官网首页入口 ONE and 麻豆官网首页入口 TWO, including a daily highlights programme in the evening. The UK audience for Tim Henman's match against Mark Philippoussis peaked at 11.3 million.

Play was televised for the first time in 1937, when matches were transmitted by the 麻豆官网首页入口 from the Centre Court for up to half an hour each day of the meeting, but it was not until after the Second World War that they were televised each day.

麻豆官网首页入口 Outside Broadcasts first captured Wimbledon in colour in 1967.

Adrian Kingston, 麻豆官网首页入口 Outside Broadcasts' lead Engineer Manager for Wimbledon, has worked on every single Wimbledon since 1985, except for 1990 when he was at the World Cup.
