NEP & New Century Productions Present a New Mobile Unit

Perfect Solution for Shows that Require a Quick Set-Up Solution

PITTSBURGH, May 13 /PRNewswire/ -- NEP Broadcasting and their New Century Productions Division are pleased to announce their newest High Definition Mobile Television Production Unit, NCPXI. This new top-quality truck features: a virtual monitor wall, GVG Kalypso Switcher, Ikegami Cameras, Canon Lenses, EVS XT2 Servers, and Calrec Sigma Audio Console.

Known as a leader in full-service remote video production, New Century Productions adds this high-powered unit to a company-wide fleet of 29 HD trucks -- the largest in North America. NCPXI will allow New Century Production to expand HD availability to regional and national broadcasters alike; with the latest technology integrated into a highly efficient mobile unit design.

"We took total advantage of the latest technology to design NCPXI to be fast and flexible. We built-in enough internal infrastructure to handle the biggest packages out there but designed in enough flexibility that it can effortlessly handle one-time-only events that drop into our schedule without a moments notice. It is a truck constructed for today's complex HD market," says Mike Mundt, Director of Engineering for New Century Productions.

"NCPXI combines the efficiencies of Mike Mundt's designs with the quality and reliability of NEP's Systems Integration Group, producing a truly first class mobile unit," says George Hoover, Chief Technology Officer of NEP Broadcasting.

NCPXI demonstrates its adaptability and range this week at the Pitt Crew Challenge for NASCAR Media Group and SPEED. This one-day event, requiring 40 channels of EVS and thirteen cameras, makes perfect use of NCPXI's ability to turn around a quick set-up for a large-scale show. NCPXI serves as NASCAR Media Group and SPEED's primary truck for the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series, as well as serving multiple clients across a wide-variety of events.
