Eurosport head of graphics and innovation Alex Dinnin will give Sports Graphics Spotlight delegates an in-depth look at the enhancements and improvements that have been made to the Discovery-owned broadcaster’s award-winning live mixed-reality presentation studio the Cube.

In a session on Friday 5 March called ‘Set Points: Inside Eurosport’s enhanced Cube mixed reality studio’, Dinnin will detail how and why the updates were made and discuss what might be coming down the line.

The Cube was a crucial part of Eurosport’s coverage of the Australian Open tennis this month and will be utilised during the Summer Olympic Games in Tokyo.

Sponsored by Vizrt, Sports Graphics Spotlight will bring together some of the brightest creative and technical minds in the industry, shining a light on the latest developments and showcasing the best in 2D, 3D and augmented reality, across on-screen and studio graphics.

Other highlights include: a session on Sky Sports’ work on the Masters golf with Sky Sports director of golf Jason Wessely; an in-depth look at the evolution of motion, augmented and live graphics in televised cycling; a Masterclass on how graphical data and statistics can be used effectively and appropriately for analysis and storytelling within televised sport; and a Thought Leader Perspectives panel.
