Freelance director and producer Tony details his use of BirdDog PTZ cameras and an NDI workflow, powered by a Netgear AV switch and TriCaster, to produce a live six-camera outdoor concert with minimal cabling and operators. This setup, which earned him a Silver Telly Award for Directing, highlights the efficiency and reliability of NDI-based production for various events.
