What kind of control surface is the vision mixer (operator) using? I guess for this kind of show with limited cameras and sources a laptop controlling the vision mixer crate Mosart style would be sufficent?

Note that in one of the replies, the director says the VM is elsewhere!

BBC Sport website showing England v Croatia from Euro 2004 from 3pm today. I do very much hope we get the full programme and not just the match - especially so that we get to hear the wonderful Basement Jaxx theme music once again...

Plus worth watching out for the mismatched graphics between the BBC 'house' style for the scorebar and studio graphics and the very different host graphics used elsewhere in the match. (ITV that year decided to base all their graphics set around the host graphics which made for a better synergy)

We had the theme tune, then straight into the match.

They featured the fantastic titles with basement jaxx theme but began with John Motson’s commentary as the players left the tunnel.

Yes, presumably a programme that was made for a late-night re-run back in 2004, as I wouldn’t have thought that BBC Sport would have had the will or personnel at this point to edit the titles onto the match feed.

Will be interesting to see if we have any studio stuff at half-time. Depends on how they made the re-run programme at the time, I guess.

No clock either.

The titles were in 16:9 but the game itself is in 4:3

EDIT: It must be this

We'll see if they edit out the highlights from Switzerland v France as listed.

Yes, the whole of the host coverage of that tournament was in 4:3, with the BBC producing their programmes in 16:9 and pillarboxing the match footage.

Good find on genome!
