Los Angeles – FSN WEST and FSN PRIME TICKET have teamed up with the Los Angeles Lakers to provide fans with a “Courtside View” when the Lakers face the Boston Celtics, on Sunday, December 30, 2007. FSN WEST, the destination for the most local Lakers coverage, will air the game using traditional fixed camera positions and an expert announcing booth while FSN PRIME TICKET captures the action by interacting with fans and providing a floor seat perspective. Both telecast versions of the game are available on FSN HD.
Game coverage on FSN WEST begins at 6:30 PM on December 30 with “Lakers Live”. At 7 PM on FSN WEST, an expert narrative from the Joel Meyers-Stu Lantz announcer-analyst team tells the story of the game. Lakers-Celtics game coverage on the regional sports network also features reporters Michael Eaves, Patrick O’Neal and Chris McGee and, analysts Norm Nixon and Michael Cage. A post-game “Lakers Live” at 9:30 PM concludes the evening on FSN WEST.
How they shoot "Courtside View”
"Courtside View”, hosted by Bill Macdonald, airs from 7 – 9:30 PM on FSN PRIME TICKET. “Courtside View” is achieved using five hand-held cameras placed at various locations along the perimeter of the court. Two robotic cameras will shoot the game from the baskets. An additional mobile camera captures the arena and game as a fan would see it roaming to and from his/her seat. Coverage imitates the human eye; there will be limited use of zoom lenses or sharp cutting from camera to camera.
The “Courtside View” experience continues during game breaks, commercial breaks and halftime when FSN WEST and FSN PRIME TICKET reporters interact with fans who are also sitting courtside. To further the insider experience, natural sounds of the game provide the audio on “Courtside View” and on-screen graphics and commercial breaks are minimal.
