Gravity Media installs Australia’s first broadcast studio LED wall

Gravity Media continues to develop its broadcast technology offering with the installation of the only broadcast studio 1.2mm pixel pitch display LED wall in Australia at its Production Centre in Sydney (PCS).

The investment follows an increasing popularity in LED video wall technology due to the clear and seamless images it delivers on camera. The versatility of the wall means that content looks great from any angle as it provides the ability to scale images or videos to any shape or size.

The LED wall stands at 10m wide and 2.5m high, with a resolution of 6400 x 1920, and provides a high-definition backdrop for sharing information and entertaining.

It has already proven popular among clients including Seven Network and Supercars. In the lead up to this summer’s Olympic Games, Seven Network approached Gravity Media seeking out the best possible screens to deliver one of the world’s most iconic events. Gravity Media was able to deliver with the new 1.2mm pixel pitch display.

Supercars used the PCS and the LED wall for its Supercars E Series. The PCS acted as the production’s main hub with the LED wall installed in a dedicated studio to display various feeds managed from the control room. Camera feeds of two commentators were sent from Gravity Media’s PCM (Production Centre in Melbourne) via fibre to the Sydney facility and played out on the LED wall so the programme’s host could easily interact with their colleagues.
