The Challenges of Filming in Non-Factual TV

Posted on by Brenda Cuzcano

The Challenges of Filming in Non-Factual TV

Filming non-factual TV shows requires far more than technical skills. It demands flexibility and a deep understanding of the story. Shows like The Dog House Australia have shown that when captured discreetly & thoughtfully, these productions can deliver authentic, powerful content.

However, working in non-factual TV presents unique challenges that traditional production models can’t always handle. Balancing the need for acquiring compelling footage while minimising disruption can be a real challenge.

Why non-factual TV requires a different approach

The audience yearns for authentic moments. This requires participants to be as natural as possible. Filming in these environments presents challenges that include:  

  • Cameras, lights, and crew movements can affect participants’ natural reactions.
  • Real-world locations bring up unpredictable conditions such as inconsistent lighting, noise, and unexpected interruptions.
  • Ability to capture spontaneous moments!. There is rarely a second chance to capture them without altering their authenticity.

Overcoming these challenges

We’ve developed a flexible approach that integrates superior production planning with fixed rig setups designed to minimise disruptions. Our Fixed Rig solutions are scalable and can cater to any project size. They closely integrate with multichannel live ingest systems and real-time creation of edit-ready media, completing an end-to-end solution.

The Dog House Australia

When working behind the scenes of The Dog House Australia, our team created a production environment that was presented as both efficient and sensitive.

This strategy prioritised minimal disruption to allow real ‘dog adoption’ moments to unfold naturally. By carefully managing logistics and communicating clearly with the staff, we authentically captured the emotional connections between humans and animals.

To sum it up, filming in sensitive environments demands adaptability and a commitment to authenticity. At CETS, through flexible strategies and a deep understanding of every environment we work in, we help bring meaningful stories to life.

Behind the Scenes of The Dog House Australia: A Heartwarming Production

Television has the power to connect people with heartwarming stories. The Dog House Australia is a great example. The series focus is to find the perfect match between dogs and potential families, featuring emotional backstories that are powerful and engaging. Touching moments are plentiful and are covered discreetly and respectfully for both family and dog. Carefully planned production setups for behind-the-scenes and on-set stories are critical to ensure audience engagement. Our priority was to ensure smooth filming while respecting the animal shelter’s needs. 

A Thoughtful Approach to Production

Filming in an active animal shelter presents unique challenges. We needed to capture compelling content while minimising disruption. That’s why we designed a flexible production strategy balancing efficiency with sensitivity to the environment. 

Our team provided a full production facility, including:

Control Room Monitoring and Switching

Audio and Communication Setup

Scalable Multi-camera Solution

The filming schedule was structured around a limited number of weekly shoot days to minimise disruptions. This required a scalable solution that allowed our team to operate efficiently over an extended period. 

A key component of our approach was the Sony ILME-FR7. We seamlessly scaled up the setup to include over 30 cameras on shoot days. Its compact footprint and remote control capabilities allowed us to capture authentic interactions without interfering with the natural flow of the shelter. 

A Project That Left a Lasting Impact

Beyond the technical achievements, this show resonated with the entire crew. Working closely with the shelter’s staff and the dogs looking for new homes made the experience deeply rewarding. In fact, some of our team members were so touched by the process that they even adopted dogs themselves!

Posted on by Brenda Cuzcano

Transforming TV production with the Sony ILME FR7

In TV production, efficiency and innovation are key to capturing high-quality content without disrupting the creative environment. Fixed rig camera systems offer a seamless solution for recording dynamic footage in multi-camera setups, especially useful in both controlled studio settings and unpredictable, fast-paced environments.

These systems are also ideal for environments where discreet filming is necessary, such as hidden camera reality TV, documentaries, and live events. One standout tool in this evolution is the Sony ILME-FR7, a full-frame PTZ camera that brings cinematic quality to productions with exceptional flexibility.

The FR7 is one of the most high-quality functional cameras on the market today, offering a unique combination of high-end cinematic quality and remote operation. With the ability to record media in-camera, production teams don’t need to transport high-bitrate video over networks. This opens up different options for the operation of and communication with the camera, even in remote setups. 

Some advantages the FR7 offers are:

Discreet Operation: The remote PTZ capabilities enable unobtrusive camera placement, allowing for creative shot compositions without disrupting subjects’ performances.

Dynamic Shot Composition: The smooth pan, tilt, and zoom functions facilitate complex camera movements, adding a dynamic visual style to scenes.

Space Efficiency: Ideal for sets with limited space, the FR7 can be mounted in various positions.

As productions demand more efficient and high-quality capture solutions, fixed rig systems will continue to shape the industry. Whether for unscripted content, event coverage, or complex multi-camera shoots, leveraging this technology ensures productions stay adaptable, immersive, and visually stunning.

Behind the Scenes of The Block: A Seamless Post-Production Overhaul in Record Time

Posted on by Brenda Cuzcano

Behind the Scenes of The Block: A Seamless Post-Production Overhaul in Record Time

The Block is one of Australia’s biggest and longest-running TV shows, and about to commence its 21st season. It aired for the first time in 2003 with 13 episodes and has since grown to 52 episodes, 5 nights a week, and over 60 hours per season.

In 2023, Nine Network approached us with a unique challenge: completely overhaul and transition the post-production setup for their flagship production while filming was still in progress. We needed to install new infrastructure at their location, including storage, networking, production and editing equipment, online suites and support, all while ensuring that the show continued seamlessly and on-schedule.

We had to take into account the large remote edit component, data wrangling integration and transport from the production location in Victoria. The existing media wasn’t on-site and needed to be transitioned within 10 days. Nine also added to the equation Travel Guides (another flagship show), which was just starting pre-production. 

This was a massive challenge, considering we had to deliver a large amount of Nexis and Nearline storage from our warehouse plus configure, commission and migrate media while the show was still in production. The storage was delivered and operational in under 48 hours and the media transition started immediately.

At the same time, new infrastructure and networking were installed with our senior techs plugged in remotely. With users transitioning around their working hours, the timeline was hit. For season 20 we decided to rebuild from scratch and implement phase 1 of the planned improvements. 

Overhaul Integration

A key part of the overhaul discussed was integrating wrangling on location efficiently, providing immediate and future workflow benefits. We had the opportunity to develop this solution and test it on auction day – an incredibly fast turnaround!  The five auctions were shot on a Saturday and edited immediately in Sydney with the result being a finished show going to air the following night. 

Rushes were wrangled on-site from EVS before being pushed directly to the edit storage in Sydney with no intermediate copies involved. Proxies hit very quickly allowing editing shortly after each auction. Testing it allowed us to proceed confidently with the main series as planned: full integration of the Wrangle Team on set with Post-Production in Sydney, allowing for a streamlined 24/7 operation and fast turn-around.

Season 21 will again take workflow and delivery to new levels. 

Unique aspects of “The Block” workflow

The Block is known for its strict commitment to safety. To ensure every detail on the work site is captured, the offline edit utilises media in full resolution, not proxies as is the case in most workflows. In the early series, a proxy workflow made for many editorial changes at the online stage which was time-consuming and costly.

To deliver the performance of multi-cam at full resolution there are 3 chassis of Nexis E4  with a System Director and significant nearline storage.  These feed up to approximately 70 Avid Media Composer workstations working on-premises and remotely.

To keep working 24/7 for 11 months straight, all systems are constantly monitored, both locally and via our Global Support Team. Proactive support is in our DNA rather than waiting to fix problems.

It’s a privilege to partner with The Block. We love clients who challenge us and give us the opportunity to exceed their expectations.

Hey Australia, Aussie Shore is here!

Posted on by Brenda Cuzcano

Hey Australia, Aussie Shore is here!

Aussie Shore, part of the successful Shore franchise, premiered last October on Paramount+ and it’s already making waves. Like in other successful versions of this franchise, Aussie Shore is full of drama. 

A comprehensive solution

Behind the scenes, our team engineered a comprehensive solution to capture all the villa adventures. We chose a Maxi Rig to follow the adventures of these 11 single Aussies brought together in a tropical villa in Cairns.

Our Maxi Rig workflow included a 2-tier control room with 24/7 recording and switching capabilities for 21 PTZ cameras, RF monitoring of 4 ENG cameras roaming around the villa, and a multi-zone radio mic RF solution. 

Working in an existing private venue called for a subtle, carefully planned approach to the cabling and mounting of cameras. We had to find the right placement for the equipment and cabling without overly impacting the villa.  

Facing the tropics 

Filming in the tropics presented some rather unique challenges. Shooting on the ocean’s edges meant tropical rain that fell sideways. We needed to design a specific waterproof solution to protect the cameras from both vertical and horizontal rain squalls.

Delivering a project like Aussie Shore challenged our team to be as creative as possible in creating a discreet setup that didn’t disrupt the talent but also considered the harsh climate conditions. Ray Martin, head of Technical Services, said: ‘We needed to monitor, control and record over 20 cameras 24/7 while keeping everything within the space allocated to the production. We had to find the right placement of cameras and equipment without impacting the property’.

Follow the drama unfold every week on Aussie Shore – only on Paramount+

The Jury: Death on the Staircase

Posted on by Brenda Cuzcano

The Jury: Death on the Staircase – Fixed Rig used in factual programming

Episode 1 of The Jury: Death on the Staircase, premiered last week on SBS. This new series gives viewers a glimpse into how the Australian justice system works.  The first episode introduced 12 volunteer jurors tasked with determining the defendant’s fate, guilty or not guilty!

Unlike other shows, The Jury is completely re-enacted word-by-word with only the names, dates and locations changed. It is entirely based on a real trial that occurred in Sydney some years ago, in which a couple had an argument that ended in one of them dead at the bottom of their staircase.

Throughout the series, the 12 jurors will weigh up the evidence and, at the end of the final episode, discover whether their verdict matches the original jury. This true-crime documentary is emotionally charged and offers a unique opportunity to learn about the Australian justice system.

Fixed Rig used in factual programming

When working on a project like this, we had to consider several factors, including the size and nature of the filming location. Since we were shooting in a heritage-listed museum,  we had to ensure our setup respected and enhanced the venue’s distinctive characteristics.

From there, we started designing a comprehensive production environment. This included a Maxi Rig featuring  11 Sony FR7 and 4 Sony FX6 cameras, plus full mRes stream capture facilities, integrated with a comprehensive data wrangling solution for a superior Edit Ready workflow.

Ray Martin, Head of Technical Services, explained: “The project was an intriguing blend of drama and reality. With a creative solution required for this style of production, we collaborated with the key production personnel to ultimately provide a solution featuring a mix of intricate workflows. Client expectations were exceeded. I can honestly say that it was one of the most interesting projects I have ever been part of”. 

For our team, the ability to seamlessly combine the Sony FR7 with the FX6 cameras was impressive. We were able to set a consistent light level throughout the shoot, which worked perfectly for both camera types. The low profile of the FR7 allowed us to shoot in multiple configurations, including full 360-degree setups, without worrying about cross-shooting. 

Overall, this project demonstrated how technological innovation and creativity can work together to create a compelling and authentic story. The Jury is more than a re-enactment, it’s an opportunity to explore the complexities of our justice system engagingly. 

Watch The Jury: Death on the Staircase every Wednesday at 8:30 pm on SBS & SBS on Demand.

The impact of Fixed Rig in non-scripted TV

Posted on by Brenda Cuzcano

The impact of Fixed Rig in non-scripted TV

In the last decade, we have witnessed the rise of fixed rig camera systems on a wide variety of TV Shows. Production teams now have the freedom to non-intrusively film in fast-paced environments without disrupting the talent, capturing the unique moments that help make non-scripted shows especially appealing.

Our Fixed Rig workflow introduces fresh and engaging features, some of which have never been seen before. Ray Martin, our Head of Technical Services says, “The workflow allows us to create solutions that perfectly fit a large percentage of productions. Not too small, not too big. It really is the Goldilocks Story”. 

What does a Fixed Rig workflow look like to us?

Some aspects we like to consider before starting any project include the turnaround time from shoot to delivery; how the media is processed, transported and backed up; plus how much time is required in Post Production to turn the show around and be ready for broadcast. By carefully analysing these aspects, we can select the most suitable equipment and workflow for the project.

Camera and lens selection are pivotal to the success of such productions. The Sony FR-7 is one of our favourites because it allows us to capture intimate moments while maintaining cinematic quality we expect from cameras like the Sony FX6 and FX9.

Depending on the project’s needs, we can rig up to 100 cameras to enable capture of every moment across various coverage areas. The small footprint of the Fixed Rig infrastructure enables productions to be more flexible in choice of location and allows for greater latitude for producers to capture the magic moments that are ultimately identified as gold material for the storylines.

Our control room is custom-built in readiness to capture footage in-camera or on servers depending on the client’s needs. Pronology mRes systems are deployed for each project to capture live streams of content and deliver directly to Post. A wide range of codecs and frame rates are on offer using this technology.

Some smaller productions need to squeeze into areas with limited space available, i.e. a carport or back office. Additionally, some spaces only come with limited air-conditioning, plus the infrastructure is required to be very close to the operators during the shoot where nearby fan noise could be a problem. Ray Martin added, “Our Engineers designed the server rack to suit such conditions. They streamlined the processing of the servers and introduced specialised airflow technology that allowed for optimum operation in warm areas and greatly reduced the fan noise to a whisper. Thus making a harmonious control room environment for everybody”.

In summary, we believe that there is a significant difference before and after using Fixed Rig systems. Productions benefit from the increased volume of footage that the cameras can capture to help construct a compelling story in real time. This is made possible by the less intrusive nature of these setups, which can sometimes make the talent forget that they are being filmed.

The Inspired Unemployed’s (Impractical) Jokers are back for another season

Posted on by Brenda Cuzcano

The Inspired Unemployed’s (Impractical) Jokers are back for another season

Our favourite jokers returned this month to Network 10 for another season of pranks. Jack, Falcon, Dom and Liam got more creative than ever putting themselves into the most awkward scenarios in front of crowds unaware of hidden cameras recording every second of it. 

To help the Inspired Unemployed get as unhinged as they wanted without being caught this season, we had one mission: to provide a compact and discreet setup. 

Practical Solutions for Impractical Scenarios 

Throughout the series, we hid several Sony ILME-FR7 cameras within various props. The impressive light sensitivity of the Sony FR7 allowed us to use tinted glass without needing a TV lighting rig, preserving the natural light in settings like cafes, nail salons, and teppanyaki restaurants. This ensured the “marks” felt they were entering normal establishments.

We controlled, monitored, and recorded the Sony FR7s from small rooms near the filming area, often no larger than a staff room or storage space. Each shoot had unique needs and obstacles, but our compact and mobile setup even enabled filming in multiple locations in one day. Our team included 2 Hot Head Operators, an Engineer, Audio, EP, and Director. This small footprint was crucial for shooting in tight environments. CETS designed a tailored solution considering mobility, footprint, quick deployment, and streamlined delivery into Post with Pronology mRes. 

Delivering a project like The Inspired Unemployed’s (Impractical) Jokers challenged our team to be as creative as possible in creating a flawless setup that captured every detail but was discreet enough to avoid alerting people. This was possible thanks to the effort our team always puts into any challenge they are presented with.

Building a Mission Critical Control Room

Posted on by Brenda Cuzcano

Building a Mission Critical Control Room

Building a mission-critical video control room involves setting up a centralised space where video, audio and other informational data from multiple sources can be streamed, monitored and processed. Similar rooms are commonly used in television broadcasting, live entertainment, security monitoring and other applications.

Building a Mission Critical Control Room

Such mission-critical work environments were first spotted in the early 20th century in factories when mass production required the creation of specific control rooms that allowed central monitoring. In World War II, similar rooms played an essential role in battle planning, and later, in the 1960s, they came into the public eye with the mission control centre for the first space mission and the lunar landing.

Nowadays, these signals and information are displayed on large screens, often portrayed as advanced futuristic rooms in science fiction and action movies. But the truth is that these control rooms can be as complex and agile as the situation requires. One solution (in this case, one design) doesn’t necessarily fit all.

Fundamentally, a control room designed to specifically cater for education purposes in a university won’t share the same design and structure as an emergency response centre implemented by Law Enforcement agencies or similar.

To help prepare for the right solution to suit your needs, here are a few pointers to consider when building a control room:

Define requirements

What is the purpose of the room? Broadcasting, surveillance, live events? Assess the available space and plan the layout based on the number of operators and the type of equipment needed, such as video switchers, monitors, servers, storage, etc.

Layout 

Besides the layout design of the operators’ consoles that ensure an efficient working environment, ergonomic factors such as lighting and monitor positioning are fundamental in avoiding operator fatigue.

Equipment

  • Video Switcher with the capability of handling multiple sources. 
  • High-quality monitors for monitoring and previewing video feeds. 
  • Audio equipment for managing audio signals.
  • Control panels for video switchers and other devices to provide a tactile interface for operators.

Infrastructure

Ensure the room has sufficient power and connectivity for all equipment. Consider redundant power systems for critical components while planning and implementing a cable management system to keep it organised and accessible.

Public Safety_Control Room-Haivision

Integration and testing 

Integrate all equipment and test functionality. Make sure video signals are routed correctly to achieve seamless communication between devices.

Automation

To improve efficiency, implement automation systems to streamline repetitive tasks. A centralised control system will help manage multiple devices from a single interface.

Multi-site and breakout room visibility

Easily share and collaborate on informational data, and display it on video walls in control rooms or remote sites.

Security

Decide who has access to your interface and avoid data breaches and unauthorised access by implementing data security. 

Maintenance and upgrades

Developing a maintenance plan to monitor and update equipment regularly will keep your video control room working at its best. 

Compliance

Ensure your video control room complies with relevant regulations and standards, especially when it involves sensitive or regulated content.

Documentation

Any system, whether a bespoke solution or off the shelf should exist alongside appropriate documentation. Such documentation which can often include instructions and FAQs is essential to the smooth operation of any technical solution.

Posted on by Brenda Cuzcano

CETS go to Mars

Stars on Mars is a new television show starring 12 adventurous celebrities competing to conquer Mars in a hyper-realistic environment, hosted by Star Trek alumni and the oldest person to ever fly in space, William Shatner. 

CETS was commissioned to provide the broadcast and media capture technology behind the entire production: from operators and technicians to camera systems and the data management of all shoot material. Technical Supervisor, Jon Dobson, said, “Stars on Mars was quite the challenge, having to provide our technology in extreme conditions was always going to require some very special solutions from the CETS team”.

Credits: Stars on Mars

Solutions on the fly 

Major projects in the field of broadcasts require careful planning and testing prior to deployment on-site. Stars On Mars – Series 1 was a great example of meticulous planning, down to the finest of detail. Yet with all the planning, a show like this inevitably throws up a curveball or two which requires some solutions to be developed on-site, as it happens.

The Stars on Mars producers had a mammoth job of delivering a new format in a challenging environment. The CETS team rose to the challenge, providing innovative solutions on the fly; integrating remote location shoots back to the ‘Mars’ base using low bandwidth satellite internet links to help deliver the Mars experience.

Integral providers of the technology behind Stars On Mars

A large production such as this leant itself to the latest in technology enabling the acquisition of crisp high-quality images to help feature the natural environment of the Coober Pedy site. We opted for 24x Sony FR7 PTZ remote cameras to work into our overall solution. The FR7 offers features such as a 4K Full frame sensor supporting video acquisition up to UHD @ 120P. The camera system also has integrated Real-time Eye Auto Focus and tracking, integrated electronic ND filtering, plus many more features.

Jon added, “Not many companies can offer the level of integration that CETS was able to bring to the table. Our full reality production kit also included 16 of our trusted Panasonic UE150 PTZ and UE100 remote cameras, 14 auxiliary cameras, our Commander Remote Camera Control Environment, a Micron Broadcast Routing universe and Skaarhoj Control panels. The new cameras played a huge role in our solution which was built from the ground up based on innovative thinking and solid industry experience.”

CETS’ contribution didn’t stop there. Integrating with the  IT Network both on-site and remotely, we provided state-of-the-art Gallery facilities for the team of Directors, Producers and multiple technicians required to run a show with this level of coverage. CETS provided approximately 1.5 Petabytes (PB) of storage for the stream media and off-rig camera card data. 

Extraordinary creativity in extreme conditions

Not something out of the textbook, delivering a project of this scale meant that the creative and technical teams needed to work together very closely in the most challenging of locations. Creating a flawless workflow and solving problems on the run in a fast-paced environment such as Stars on Mars is only made possible by our expertise in the industry delivering high-quality content from capture through to post-production, and the effort our experienced crew always puts into any challenge that they’re presented with.

Everything you need to know about SRT Gateway

Posted on by Brenda Cuzcano

Everything you need to know about Secure Reliable Transport (SRT Gateway)

Haivision SRT Gateway, which stands for Secure Reliable Transport, is designed to carry live video streams over the internet in the most secure way possible. This open-source video streaming protocol enables high-quality video delivery, even in unpredictable network conditions.

The Gateway is a reliable and secure tool for live streaming across a wide range of IP networks. It acts as a bridge by sending content to one or several destinations. Although the broadcast market benefits from it when it comes to production and distribution, it can be applied to many industries.

Live streaming

Consumption of streamed material is at an all-time high, and growing. Daily activities such as watching a live interview or a concert in real-time from any device are only possible through live video streaming. This occurs when the streamed material is sent as it’s happening. This has largely changed the way of consuming information such as TV broadcasting, video games, and social media channels, to name a few. 

How does SRT work? 

Haivision developed SRT as a tool to help improve workflows within the broadcast industry by helping broadcasters to transport footage across unpredictable networks without sacrificing the quality of the image. It’s a flexible and scalable solution for the secure routing of live video streams.

SRT works in real-time, optimising your content to adapt efficiently to specific networks and making it possible to stream media seamlessly in situations such as remote contribution, backhaul, return feeds, bi-directional interviews, and content distribution for international syndication.

Secure Reliable Transport software is a game-changer tool thanks to its interoperability. It ensures flexibility to support different source and destination points over all types of IP networks.
