Facility & Equipment

CMCM has a large inventory of production equipment available to members, including the Marin TV studio, Sony X70 field cameras, a Blackmagic multi-camera field shoot sytem, Final Cut Pro X video editing stations, and a private editing suite.

Production Studio
The Marin TV studio is a robotic four-camera remote studio with low-energy fluorescent lighting and a double curtain cyc (black/gray/green screen). Camera inputs, computer, and Blueray, sources are available for the control room's Blackmagic switcher. Producers can record programming straight to SSD cards. Audio is mixed via a 24-channel Yamaha mixer. Basic CG for titles is available via a Compix Character Generator system. Other features include a teleprompter, a phone hybrid for taking live on-air calls, a talent IFB, and COM system for a floor director. Depending on the complexity of the production, the entire control room operation can be managed by a two-to-four person crew.
