We’ve started rolling out REMI production workflows for the NZJSA and selected speedway tracks around New Zealand. The idea is simple: keep the parts that need to happen at the track on site, and move as much of the production as possible back to our studio.
For speedway, that makes a lot of sense. Tracks are spread out, events run regularly, and putting a full traditional OB-style crew on site every time gets expensive fast. REMI keeps production quality up while reducing the cost and logistics of each event.
How we’re doing it
At the track we still have the cameras, key crew and the gear needed to capture the event properly. From there, Kiloview or LiveU encoders send camera feeds back to our studio over SRT.
Those feeds land at our studio, where we cut the show remotely. Switching, audio, replay and graphics are all handled from the studio, while the on-site team focuses on capture and comms. Once the programme is cut, the final stream goes online from the studio.
That means we can produce a proper multi-camera speedway live stream with around 50% less crew on site.
Why it works for speedway
A lot of speedway production requirements are consistent from event to event. Once the track is planned, cameras positioned, comms sorted and the network path tested, we reuse the same base system and improve it over time.
It also keeps more of the production team in a controlled environment. Audio, switching, replay and graphics operators work from the same studio, on familiar systems, with better monitoring and fewer variables than a temporary control position at the track.
Lower cost without stripping the production back
Fewer people travelling, less gear on site, less accommodation, less set-up time and a more repeatable workflow. We’re still producing a multi-camera live stream with live switching, replay, graphics, audio and proper stream monitoring — we’re just moving the right roles back to the studio.
That’s the difference between simply cutting costs and building a better production model.
Built around real-world NZ conditions
Not every track has perfect internet. Not every site has ideal production space. Some venues are dusty, noisy, remote or awkward to cable. The workflow has to be practical, not just technically clever.
We use SRT because it’s a reliable way to move live video over IP, and hardware from Kiloview and LiveU is built around this kind of contribution workflow. SRT is designed for secure, low-latency video over unpredictable networks — exactly why we use it for remote production.
What this means for clubs and tracks
REMI makes regular live coverage more realistic. Instead of every event needing a full travelling crew, we build a repeatable system that gets better across the season: more consistent coverage, better use of crew, and a more sustainable way to stream events that might not justify a full outside broadcast every time.
For fans, the goal is simple: a reliable, professional stream that feels like proper coverage of the event.
Where we see this going
REMI won’t replace every on-site production — some jobs still need a full crew and control room at the venue. But for regular sport, speedway, motorsport and other repeat events, it’s going to be a big part of how we deliver live production in New Zealand.
Our studio becomes the hub. Tracks send the feeds in, our team cuts the show, and the final stream goes out from there. Less crew on the road, less gear at the venue, more consistency and lower production costs — with the same focus on getting the live stream right.
