Quicklink connects Michelle Obama and Mulberry School for Girls

Skype and Glamour magazine came together for International Day of the Girl to power a live conversation and discussion between Michelle Obama and adolescent girls around the world on the importance of education. For the event, Mulbery School for Girls comprehensive school joined in on the global live conversation using the Quicklink TX Multi.

For the conversation, Mulberry School for Girls required a high quality broadcast camera to interface with Skype. The event was watched by 75 students and the American Ambassador who were seated in the school’s theatre. It was important that this output was displayed professionally without any other distractions. XLR audio outputs allowed Mulberry School for Girls to easily integrate with their theatre sound system. These requirements made the Quicklink TX the perfect solution.

Christopher Stone, Theatre Technical Manager at Mulberry School for Girls said, “We chose the Quicklink TX Multi as the system came with both SDI and HDMI outputs which meant we had a solution that would be useable now with our current projectors (HDMI in) but would allow us at a later date to feed into a vison mixer using SDI. Quicklink as a company was excellent!”
