Spotlight on Sustainability: Towards a greener TV and video value chain

A global shift in the standard of living has caused significant growth in greenhouse carbon emissions (GHG), with the TV and video streaming industry accounting for 4% of total global emissions. While the TV and video industry has historically been seen as a relatively low-carbon emitter, today’s increasingly fragmented service and delivery ecosystem is driving rapid growth in industry emissions.
SVT utilised Ateliere Live to accelerate their remote production of its flagship TV original title “The Great Moose Migration”. Traditional on-premise infrastructure, five or six media creative professionals plus travel and transportation to remote locations moved to ultra-low latency based live media transport ingest; 35 remote cameras capturing from Gothenburg, and Umea remote facilities (proxy editing) and multi-channel publishing at scale - saving: 70% CO2 reduction and 50% cost synergies.
