PRODUCTION FOR-A delivers turnkey OB truck

MAP is a leading production and post

company, based in Dubai, which services the UAE and beyond. MAP has had a long relationship with For-A as technology partner, including a complete flyaway production kit developed for weekly live shows and other sporting events. MAP and For-A together have recently re-implemented this equipment into an outside broadcast truck. “The turnkey system we built in conjunction with For-A proved extremely effective for us: flexible, secure and simple,” said

Multimedia systems designer and integrator Fuse Technical Group has chosen Matrox Video for its routing and orchestration, conversion and control inside Las Vegas Sphere. Matrox’s tech supported the venue’s producers during U2’s residency last year. PRODUCTION FUSE AND MATROX SUPPLY SPHERE

Imad Basil, managing director of MAP. “When we decided to build a permanent OB truck in Dubai, it made sense for us to use as much of the same kit as we could, because we know how to get the best out of it, and we know we can count on it.”

The new OB truck gives MAP a strong presence in Dubai. The facility is currently operating in HD, but every element is ready to be upgraded to 4K Ultra HD, using 12G-SDI. At the heart of the new OB truck is the For-A HVS-1200 production switcher.
