In the world of international sports events, few entities command as much attention as FIFA. Throughout its history, FIFA Tournament Draws have played an instrumental role in determining the fate of participating teams and generating excitement among fans.
As the governing body of global football, FIFA organizes many significant tournaments ranging from the FIFA World Cup to smaller yet equally impactful tournaments, such as the Futsal World Cup Lithuania 2021, FIFA World Cup UAE 2021, Tokyo 2020 Olympic Football, and the European ICP 2022, among other notable events.
VIVEN’s involvement in these remarkable events spanned from the inception to the execution, offering support to the FIFA team throughout pre-production and production phases of the Football Tournament Draws. All of which required careful planning and precise coordination to bring together the best 12 person team and equipment for a seamless execution.
To make sure viewers had an engaging experience, a six-camera setup was employed. The multi-camera setup allowed smooth transitions between camera angles, letting viewers watch the events from different viewpoints. All camera feeds were integrated into a central control mixer, where our multi-camera director switched and monitored them in real-time to ensure a visually engaging presentation.
The live feed was simultaneously transmitted to television networks and online platforms, allowing fans worldwide to watch the teams’ grouping unfold. The real-time edit of the events was the key aspect for the live-streaming and broadcasting of the FIFA Tournament Draw productions.
Producing the FIFA Tournament Draws was an amazing challenge that required careful planning and technical knowledge. The successful execution of these events relied on the hand-in-hand collaboration and efforts of the FIFA team and VIVEN crew.
