Last week, our Executive Producer of Sports at BMG, Graham Taylor, took the stage at Sports Video Group’s Remote Production Forum in Charlotte, North Carolina, as a panelist on the “Remote Production and Connectivity” panel. The panel explored how modern remote workflows are redefining traditional approaches to production, with a particular focus on connectivity and decentralized operations. Graham shared some insightful thoughts on the evolving landscape of remote production and how BMG is tackling these challenges head-on. Here’s a closer look at his takeaways:

1. Remote Productions Are Here to Stay

The widespread adoption of remote production workflows has shown that they’re not just a passing trend– they’re becoming an industry mainstay. As an early adopter and pioneer in remote production, BMG has continuously pushed the boundaries of REMI workflows, embracing cloud-based technologies and developing its proprietary decentralized production model. This commitment allows us to maintain flexibility and deliver high-quality productions, regardless of our teams’ location.

2. Legacy Models of Workflows and Equipment Are Being Shattered

The conventional ways of building production workflows and configuring equipment are rapidly changing, focusing now on adaptability and efficiency. BMG is at the forefront of this shift, designing unique solutions tailored to each project’s needs instead of relying on what’s been done before, and leading the training efforts of staff, contractors, and the next generation of talent on decentralized production. By developing custom workflows and investing in cutting-edge technology, we’re redefining what’s possible for remote and live production.

3. Transport & Connectivity Are Key for REMI Solutions

Seamless transport and strong connectivity are the lifeblood of any successful remote production. BMG’s approach ensures reliable connectivity using advanced technologies like SD-WAN and cloud integration, which enable us to maintain high-quality and reliable feeds across dispersed locations. Our ability to navigate complex connectivity challenges guarantees that we deliver the quality our clients expect, no matter the circumstances.

4. People Remain at the Forefront of It All

While technology is a crucial enabler, it’s the people behind the technology who make productions truly successful. BMG’s decentralized sports packaging model keeps people at the center of everything we do, prioritizing their ability to work creatively and efficiently from any location. Our approach is designed to empower talent, allowing them to thrive in diverse environments while maintaining the integrity and quality of the production. BMG’s mobel enables more efficient utilization of our staff and allows contractors to work on more projects without leaving their home or going to a nearby BMG office in NYC, DC or Las Vegas.
