TNT Sports Upgrades Big 12 Football Coverage With 1080p HDR, SpiderCam

TNT Sports is entering its second season covering the Big 12 with a bigger production package, moving to 1080p HDR, adding SpiderCam and expanding its camera complement. Coverage kicks off Saturday as Coastal Carolina visits West Virginia on TNT, truTV and HBO Max. The broadcast will use roughly 18 cameras, four Sony HDC-5500 super-slo-mo units running at 6X, five EVS replay systems and five Proton POV cameras controlled through CyanView. SMT now handles both the scorebug and first-and-10 line for tighter data integration, while graphics are operated remotely from TNT Sports' Techwood facility in Atlanta. An uninterruptible power supply adds redundancy, and the network's College Football Playoff slate grows from two games to five this season.
