" Graphics, augmented reality, shallow depth-of-field cinema cameras, and drones are all part of the production, but in the end, the star of the show will be the amazing super-motion replays in high dynamic range," he says.Īs it did in 2020, Fox will record the game using an HDR format called HLG. Fox will also have a 4K camera on its upper skycam, as well as 180-degree field-of-view 4K pylon cameras that allow virtual “panning” on the end zones. "This allows us to digitally zoom the picture for shots of whether a foot was in or out, whether a ball was caught or not," he says. For sports, higher frame rates-which can reduce blurring during fast-moving action and special effects-are very important, so shooting in HD and then upscaling is a good compromise.ĭavies says Fox will have 4K-and even a few 8K-cameras shooting as well, but they’ll be used for “region of interest” zooming at high frame rates. Shooting in both 4K and at high frame rates would require a lot of bandwidth.

"Mainly, the show is so large, with more than 100 camera sources-many of them shooting in higher frame rates-that 1080p winds up being a great format," he says. Michael Davies, senior vice president of field operations at Fox Sports, says there are good reasons the company is shooting in HD and upconverting the signal, rather than shooting in 4K.
