Cape Cod High Def

VTS managed this project from concept through production. A high definition mobile television production truck served as home base for the production that featured live two-way High Definition between divers on the ocean floor, studios in the UK, studios on the beach in Cape Cod, Massachusetts, and our dive ship and underwater studios off shore.

Two way, interactive, audio and video was delivered via terrestrial HD RF systems between ship and shore. Six cameras on the dive boat and underwater supplied live coverage of excavation of a pirate vessel sunk over 100 years ago. Underwater Aquanauts were able to take questions from studios on shore and in the UK.

The project aired live in the UK and was edited into a two hour special airing on the Discovery Channels in the States.
