Hope you like this tech tour! These OB trucks are out on the field non stop so we had this rare opportunity with a limited time inside, which is why we didn’t cover all the aspects in further detail! Feel free to pinpoint all inaccuracies that I may have said. Thanks so much for all your support and nice comments! What would you like to see next ? 😀

@@blessedjunior6989 they need to see all of the live feeds, you can drive a car without a backup camera, mirrors, and doors, but you don’t because it is inconvenient. You can operate a livestream with only one screen, but you don’t, especially at this scale because it is incredibly inconvenient.

Better production quality than most mid-budget television shows, with a more compelling host who clearly loves what they do, and a genuinely fascinating subject... That's Zebra Zone for sure!

I've worked in OB trucks like this for 8 years. Even collaborated with AMP on few occasions. It's an amazing and endlessly cool job ... but be careful, it can eat up your life if you let it. Very physically, mentally and time intensive. :) ...but also the best multimedia technology school you can imagine. No university can teach you what a year at company like that can give you. Trust me. If you can operate an OB truck, no studio anywhere will take you by surprise.

Thats the most acurate statement i had ever read: "If you can operate an OB truck, you have mastered any broadcast environment possible."

A most interesting overview. It would be interesting to investigate each section of the work flow and how they interact. I have some experience of the corporate conference and Corporate video production, but from almost 30 years ago, so the technology was very different. I find the way they have nested the systems from at least 5 different production environments together in one vehicle. What is the backbone standard this truck is designed for? 4K or higher.

@@plunder1956 Honestly till this day 4K trucks are not as common as it might seem. The one you see in the video probably is 4k, because AMP is very big and very succesful company. But your local TV soccer match won't be shot in 4K any soon. It's just too expansive. Other than that, you usually have 4 main departments. All nicely shown in the video. - The video vision mixing part, where editor and director sits. Also it usually hosts a graphics operator for titles and stats. - The replay part (where EVS operators sit and offer replay shots to director). - The remote camera control part, where they take care of all cameras looking the same, so you can cut between them. - Audio part, where sound gets made. Also they configure intercom systems so everyone hears everyone. All the signals are routed in matrices. Some use distributed multimedia matrices (google Riedel Mediornet), some use dedicated video and audio matrixes. Video one tends to be a standalone device, audio one tends to be a part of audio console. All the audio and video meets in a device called "embedder" that makes a finished stream out of it. That stream then goes to an H.264 encoder. Either mounted in and DSNG truck (a car with satellite dish on top) or goes to some kind of internet based encoder (google LiveU). That's how the signal gets to TV station. Then they process and distribute it any way they fancy. :) (I was too colorblind to work on the vision/camera control part, but I've done all the rest. All the aidio stuff, bit of replays, lots of intercoms and A LOT of dsng satellite transmissions. :) )

@@plunder1956 I agree completely. Within a truck like this there are probably so many sub-groups of expertise.For example, I saw a lot of fibre networking, but there was still discussion about SDI connection, and it made me curious about tech like NDI. Can you so some stuff on that in these environments?

We need more of these videos...excellent content

Thanks for a fascinating tour of an actual tardis. What an amazing design. It's incredible how much functionality has been packed in.

I would watch a 6 hour breakdown of the workflow in every chair. So much thought is going into this.

He's come back!!!

Videos like this and the comments people post give me so much pride to work in broadcast. It's one thing to tell my loved ones about what I do, but it's even better being able to show them a video like this that does such a good job of explaining everything that goes on in one of these amazing trucks!

Production value of the charts again. Thanks man!

That's the first time I have ever been able to see inside a mobile broadcast truck before. Clearly, this one is a true, state-of-the-art system ready for today's digital, 4k standards. I am having a true geek out over this one.

The 'normal' translations work better than the AI ones from last video 👍🏻

Babe, wake up, Zebra Zone has posted a new video.

Let's goooo Zebra Zone posted again!

Hope to see you upload more videos. That camera tear down adventure you took us on last year was incredible. And I look forward to anything you do in the future

Ive had the privilege of seeing one of these in person and its so cool! What you almost never see is the warehouse team that sort and supply all the extra gear that goes onto another (or several other) trucks that take all the gear that goes to events! :) shout out to those guys! :)

Great to see you again! This truck is truly a marvel. The amount of tech packed in is remarkable. I am also amazed it has enough battery power for 30 minutes run time - that's one heck of a UPS! Thank you for another cool video.

forget about all the other subscription posts and youtube recommendations...Zebra Zone has posted a new video so that is the one to sit down for and watch right away with a coffee next to me. Thank you so much for another video. This truck is just a little bit more then my one box on the road kit :)

Me: Hits back of this truck with my car. My insurance company: YOU HIT WHAT?!

Always excited to see a new video of you! 👌🏽

They make TV shows like StarTrek etc, and try and blow you away with futuristic tech, however in reality this truck leaves them all behind, no silly 'GNDN' pipes, this is all real, it all does something.

wow what a company, that's so impressive.

Yes, they are!

Very cool, million years ago I worked in trucks in the US, even built them from scratch.

Unique content! Thank you

Excellent video! Always interesting to see what happens behind the scenes, especially when one goes into all the cool technical details.

Thank you for great video. As someone who does not care about filmmaking but love tech I like your videos and style. You can see you have a great passion and it’s contagious.

I really find it facinating that you don't have more than one million subscibers. The quality and effort put into these videos is on a whole another level. Keep going!

Wow that's awesome, amazing, and mind-boggling stunning to see such a beast of high-tech miracle! I am blown away by the huge amount of technology and ingenuity which is inside this semitruck! Thank you for sharing it with us and have a great day! 😍

Love these behind the scenes videos!

This channel definitely needs more subscribers

Awesome video! So great that you walked around this whole topic from different aspects!

Thank you brother for making this video. It's a very rare type of knowledge we are seeing on this platform.❤

Great video thanks for putting so much effort into this! So much behind the scenes!

Was just in that truck recently, beautiful build and stellar crew!

Thank you for making this video!

Great stuff man, I love videos like this!

Cool! Glad to hear you're working on more videos again. Also just curious, do you work at AMP visual? cause you know a lot about it.

Thanks! I don’t work there but have spent a bit of time around their trucks and team, for sure they are very humble and talented!

Awesome truck, awesome tour. That double-slide is really something. You can tell that the truck was really designed by experienced folks because they put that back-of-rack access hatch there so that you can get behind all that gear and add/remove/change wiring wiring easily. 👍🏻

Wow. As usual you've done an amazing video. Love the explanation and tours. Great facilities and trucks. Thanks again.

Extremely impressive. The engineering and design that went into each of these mobile studios must be mind-blowing. You very adequately explained each section and how it integrates into a production. Well done. Thank you!

very interesting video, love seeing all this stuff! it's insane just how much technology and how many people go into a single broadcast

Very, very impressive!

What a great behind the scenes!

Always excited to see thank you..

Wow! Great video....on a very cool subject! Right ON!

I Can’t express how much I like this 😮 spectacular ! And thanks for the professionalism of all these guys

Thank you for the video but also for pointing me towards the new monopod from iFootage, I think I will preorder one.

Danke!

You don't know how much I wanted to see that video :D I was going to fake it I have a YT channel and get a mobile production company to do a fake review just so I could see it, I am actually really interested from technology standpoint but also how it is all packed together and also how it differs from normal "studio datacenter" application to withstand the vibrations and shocks in transit so everything works out of the box when on set... Great !!! Thanks !!

I’ve worked on 3 of the big trucks and many of the smaller trucks. Personally I prefer smaller flight packs because they can go in more places and less power than trucks. I’ve been in the business over 35 years as a cable puller/page, production assistant for Detroit word cup 1994 with EBU, as a TD and Director for countless productions

I don't even do any video production, but watching videos like this is awesome for me anyway. Love the technology around it.

Nice tour.

What a BEAST!! Awesome video! :)

Great video, very informative, and beautifully presented. Thank you.

Love all of your videos! I feel your love of the job

more power to u for making such videos or documentary

this is awesome 😍

It's a monster!

As a engineer I am most impressed. Best video so far other than the broadcast camera one. Thank you. The one thing I have not seen is a satellite uplink station.

BEST CONTENT I'VE ALWAYS WANTED TO KNOW HOW THESE WORK AMAZING......

Absolutly Incredable

Very interesting!

This is so COOL! I wish I could see this in real life. Also underrated content!

Great content and can tell good knowledge about real world of technology!

As usual, professionally job

I can see you improvise on scene with little scripting beforehands! 😂 Nevertheless, I love your videos, can’t wait for the next one!

That was absolutely fantastic. I can’t even begin to imagine how much that truck is worth - at the lowest end several million.

Amazing! On the road again (and it is the case to say it) ! Can't wait for the next video!

Yeahh!!!

Amazing!

Now that is some impressive cable management.

Let's gooooo!!!

I was working as a maintenance guy for the local university. My maintenance calls were dispatched to me by the security office via walkie-talkie. One of these trucks was out back plugged into our building for electricity.One night during a college men's basketball game, I was told to unplug the truck. I did as ordered. They weren't ready to shut down. I threw the switch within seconds.The door flew open, and people were screaming. We all went to the building management,and they wanted answers. The security officer confessed to having dispatched me. Man, they wanted my fired.

incredible!

Holy shit this is amazing.

Nice video. Used to build these trucks and worked in that for may years.

My head cant wrap my head on How complex this system is..Just out of this world

My God! Thank you for this guided tour, amazing, just wondering how much would such a truck cost?

wow this is cool

Real next gen is producing remotely.

Amazing ❤

This would also be a phenomenal investment for many production companies filming on location.

The french are awesome. I can't wait to travel there one day.

This is cool

There trucks are so cool!

I love your videos

Cool!

Nice tour - BUT where was the box of Gaffa tape?

Yet the network decides to broadcast at 4mbps 🤣

Lovely. I could not focus on anything else but your windmilling arms. It was nail bitingly stressful, being afraid that you’ll knock something down.

At 10:27 there's a color shift/ jump.

What i'm most amazed by is the suspension on that truck, surely all those connections over million km would degrade
