Abstract: Technological advances are allowing operators, editors and producers to remotely access media production servers for content editing and repackaging for distribution and archiving-in realtime, anywhere in the world. Advanced remote production gives unprecedented capability to work remotely, enhance content on the fly, and deliver original content to users' second screens. The paper will analyze the technology, challenges, results, and opportunities behind new capabilities that are changing the media landscape. Real-world examples, including multimedia distribution for the 2014 FIFA World Cup—delivering live streams, multi-angle clips, stats, and social network feeds to viewers' connected screens through broadcaster apps—will be explored. The complex World Cup workflow, encompassing live streaming of six HD camera angles and up to 24 multi-angle replays instantly pushed to a central cloud-based platform, access to 3,000 hours of stored content, on-the-go transcoding and distribution to FIFA's Media Rights Licensees (MRLs), drives an estimated 50 million downloaded apps.
