Genie Lifts Elevate Broadcasters at the ESPN Wide World of Sports
Genie aerials provide high-angle opportunities above the fields, above the crowds
At the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex, located in the middle of the Walt Disney World Resort near Orlando, Fla., professional and amateur athletes from around the world visit the 220-acre athletic complex daily for the ultimate sports experience — a truly magical experience for many of them. Broadcasters covering youth sports competitions at the complex aim to provide remote viewers with shots and angles of the live action similar to what they would experience watching a pro sports event. To get all of the dramatic live footage, Mark Begonia, production manager, ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex Production Center, and his team employs state-of-the-art broadcasting equipment and a fleet of Genie lifts.
