Pack Network

Pack Network specializes in producing live video and archive recordings for events of all types and sizes. We came up with the "PackCast" – our term for a webcast with all the production values of television (mutiple cameras, graphics, commercials, and so on). Our goal was to be able to provide a professional-style production at a small fraction of the cost of traditional TV production. We now staff and produce hundreds of these live PackCasts each year, everything from bowling to Wiffle Ball to lecture series, commencements and performances. The next logical step was to figure out how to take our PackCasts and turn them into actual TV productions. Focusing on the same idea of quality and affordability, beginning in 2011, we started delivering HD broadcasts via IP without the need for a satellite truck, fiber connection or other costly delivery methods. Our HD PackCasts can air live and/or on-demand, giving our clients the most economical option to get their content on traditional TV in the highest quality. The other part of Pack Productions is our complete post-production service. We do highlight videos, documentary-style features, promos and more. Live HD productions: Pack Network produced a series of games that aired live in 720p HD on WBIN-TV in Derry, N.H. during the 2011-12 hockey season. The games were delivered for air via IP transmission, instead of a typical satellite truck or fiber connection, keeping costs low. Pack Network's HD productions are also available via simulcast on the web and mobile devices such as the Droid, iPhone and iPad. Notice the TV-style production elements such as on-screen score bug, clock overlays, replays, graphics and dedicated commentators. Multi-purpose productions: Pack Network produced an event for the organization Startup America, featuring entrepreneur fashon designer Tory Burch. This three-camera production was viewable as a live webcast and on mobile devices. We also provided an in-house, closed-circuit feed for an overflow audience. Post-production features: We offer complete post-production services. This annual highlight video for Boston Universty Athletics used footage that was gathered all season long when we produced live webcasts for over 70 BU sporting events.
