WELCOME
T he show must go on! But in what respect was our first thought when we discovered that unfortunately NAB Show 2020 had succumbed to the Covid-19 pandemic. We felt for all those R&D folks who had worked day and night to get their new piece of gear into some shape to show it at NAB. Also, all those booth scripts that the demonstrators rehearse endlessly to peak, like racehorses, on the eve of the show. In light of this, we hope this digital publication goes some way to bringing you a taste of what would have been a great NAB Show 2020. We’ve concentrated on the subject of capture, with new product announcements from cameras, lights and support equipment. Each story links out to the manufacturers mentioned who are primed to come back to you with anything you want to know about their new products or services. Surely, finding out what’s new in capture, post-production and broadcast is better from the comfort of your sofa? But if you really miss the sounds of Vegas, search for albums of casino ‘atmos’ and screaming from New York-New York’s roller coaster on Spotify. There’s a certain satisfaction in being able to turn that off; the real thing is harder to ignore.
