Gothenburg Symphony Orchestra aims to start the 2019 autumn season in 4K. We like to imitate typical manned camera productions, so we do live movements in picture, the music is live, so we need to react to the music in real time.” We work with a lot of pre-sets, so we'll have between 40and 50 pre-sets per camera on any concert. ![]() “The way we work with these cameras is kind of new and certainly to television recording standards. “On a typical concert, we'll have two camera operators each running five cameras each on two remote controllers, a score reader who reads the music and lets us know what is coming next, and a vision mixer to switch between the shots,” adds Måns Pär Fogelberg. Here, Panasonic has supplied two of its latest remote controllers the AW-RP150 has a new one-hand operation joystick (controlling PTZ or Focus) and a large touch-panel LCD screen for monitoring and menu setting. We're always learning how to get the best out of the system.”Ī studio tucked in the bowels of the concert hall acts as the control centre for GSOplay. I first fell in love with the old Panasonic RP-655 controllers, because you could really work the cameras as if they were manned. The audience wouldn't like it, the orchestra wouldn't like it, so we need PTZ systems to do it at all. “There is no option to produce these kinds of recordings with manned cameras. The UE150 allows us greater dynamics, better lenses and the ability to switch quickly and easily from wide to tele shots. Over the last seven years, we have certainly learned a great deal about how to produce this kind of concert and how to use the cameras. Måns Pär Fogelberg, Producer for GSOplay, said, “We started GSOplay in 2012, with Panasonic's last generation of Full HD PTZ (AW-HE120) cameras. Featuring a 1-type MOS large sensor, this next generation PTZ camera supports high-quality 4K 50p video.Įach Autopod elevation unit is supplied with a universal camera mounting plate and elevation ranges from 55cm to 125cm and is remotely controlled by afoot pedal or hand controller. The UE150 sits at the top of Panasonic's comprehensive professional PTZ camera lineup. "On a typical concert, we'll have two camera operators each running five cameras each on two remote controllers" The sound recording is made with the classic Decca tree with three microphones in a T-shape above the conductor, with extra microphones on certain instruments or soloists. To achieve this, it combines ten Panasonic AW-UE150 4K PTZ cameras, a further AK-UB300 4K box camera, two sliders and two Polecam Autopods which give vertical and lateral movements within shots. ![]() As part of the production, GSOplay likes to have as wide a variety of shots as it can. These are then edited and the concert is published as video on demand. The Symphony live streams between 20 and 25 concerts a year. It allows you to sit in the orchestra and see the cooperation between musicians and between the musicians and the conductor.” “To sit in the hall is something very special. ![]() ![]() “GSOplay is like a classical music buffet, you can try and find your particular taste of classical music, because the genre is so wide. The aim is to reach a broader and more diverse audience throughout the world, by making classical music more accessible, emotional, and enjoyable.Įva Essvik, Audience & Business Developer for Gothenburg Symphony Orchestra, said, “We have up to 150,000 people watching every month from across the world, we have everybody from hardcore classical music fans to curious beginners who may be listening to classical music for the first time.
