Prim Association to An Event

Today we will be releasing the first marching performance WITH audio on FloMarching thanks to the 2-year long effort by Wesley Sullivan (and cohorts) to break down the wall that is music copyrights. This is a MASSIVE win as a large percentage of our subscribers are asking for music on marching replays on the daily. To put it in perspective, the SILENT archives of DCI and BOA 2018 seasons have resulted in 85,000 premium minutes watched since this past June and have netted us over 785 subs. Imagine what the possibilities are if we actually have fully licensed archives like the one we are launching today. (Nominated by Ryan Montalvo & Michael Gilley)

10/27 MVPs this Week

Recently, there was an issue discovered by Adam Armstrong where archives on the Apple TV and Roku apps were not geo-blocked according to the rules set in Ooyala. Due to the already full plate of the dev team, Truong spent time (after midnight the day before Thanksgiving) and created a solution to the problem so that we would be compliant with our rights contracts. This is a big deal as some penalties for not geo-blocking archives are upwards of $400,000. Truong stepped up big time, but that is no surprise. (Nominated by Michael Cramer)

10/2 MVPs this Week

Sarah Hoffman, Megan Motley, Bowling Content/Marketing Team, & 3.0 Engineering for enabling the #1 Bowler in the world to give us the shout out attached. When we have the #1 bowler in the country making an unsolicited post like this it's beyond amazing. Sarah's tweet for FloBowling on how to watch an event on the site that explains FloZone, individual streams, etc. It was much needed to help fans of FloBowling understand how to see all the coverage we offer. It's this kind of engagement that gets the fans excited about what we're doing. We have had a few subscribers confused and she solved the problem.

9/25 MVPs this Week

Caleb Hoffman, CJ, and Brady Covington - Renocross was a difficult event, made harder by the fact that the event director was changing the course, lighting, power drops and internet until the night before the race, making any kind of plan near impossible. Getting set up was a full team effort, but as soon as the show started Caleb and CJ made sure it went off flawlessly, and looked amazing. The camera coverage that they set up didn’t have any blind spots, and the use of picture in picture allowed them to tell a fuller story of the race instead of just focusing on the leader. They were able to co-ordinate a sideline reporter doing interviews at 2 different locations with very limited communication because the wireless system was broken. The team exhibited a tremendous amount of patience and a boat load of can do to execute the highest quality cycling broadcast that FloSports has ever produced. (Nominated by Brady Covington & Eric Helton)
