Tech Support
Since the first video cable I soldered, I’ve provided technical support to others. First analog video in the 80s, then digital video in the 90s, and now live streaming in the present day. The cost of video production gear has dropped significantly and just about anyone can afford to livestream.
I can help design a new video system, upgrade an existing system, or help with your current audio/video problems.

I served as technical production director for The Heart Summit for several years for Ron Blome Productions. We regularly had two surgeries and two cath labs going simultaneously with live procedures from the Arkansas Heart Hospital. This was transmitted (originally using satellite trucks, and then using video over IP) to the Little Rock Embassy Suites, the site of the event. We brought the TNDV Television production truck from Nashville, Tennessee, and crew to handle the production truck duties.
