Multi-Site Church: LIVE





Here is a shot of our Saturday Night service at our multi-site church.

On each side of the High School Auditorium our Viera Campus meets in, we added a 10 foot WideScreen Projector / Screen combo, and then also added a 25' WideScreen Projector screen for a center shot.

We are currently streaming both the side and center shots from our main campus in Melbourne, about 20 miles south.







This is half of the powerhouse that makes the multi-site church possible. What you see are 2 StreamBox units, 3 rows of monitors, 2 Camera Control Base Stations and an Opera Video Switcher. Basically we have enough power to run most churches, but contained in single roadcase. The Streamboxes allow us to broadcast the service live over IP at or above DVD quality.

We actually record the service to DVD at the multi-site church.




This campus has it's own band, and both campuses use the same set list everyweek. We still have a couple of timing issues to work out, like when we switch over to the live feed from the main campus, but in general everything runs really smooth.
