Johannesburg, South Africa.- (News of The South) – South Africa’s privately owned 24-hour news channel eNCA, has launched a high-tech HD studio that boasts of a massive 12 x 3 meter curved LED video wall.
The multi-purpose studio video wall which is the biggest on the African continent, will ensure that viewers receive voice, pictures, text, and videos at an enhanced sensory level.
Live in-studio action will be captured by six HD cameras, five of which are on robotics and the sixth on a jib.
“Our use of this technologically advanced equipment in the new HD studio is exceptional and will provide a sharp and refreshing feel to all our programs.
The semi-circular set shape will allow for an increase in camera angles compared to the previous U-shaped set design.
It took us months of work to ensure that the new studios are a perfect fit for the upgraded broadcast quality,” said Group Technical GM Rose Rogers.
On 22 November 2015, eNCA published South Africa’s first virtual reality news story, reported by Yusuf Omar and produced in conjunction with South African virtual reality firm, Deep VR.
The 360° video debuted on eNCA’s Facebook page and has received more views than any other eNCA video.
Launched in June 2008, the news channel is South Africa’s first and most watched 24-hour news service.
