Using Command Centers to Enhance Your E-Sports Broadcast

Summary: Command center environments can bring the action of your next e-sports tournament to life.

Plenty of people tune in to watch sports on regular basis. No matter the sport, be it volleyball, tennis, snowboarding, or sailing, the excitement of watching athletes compete at the highest level of play is one of the aspects that draws viewers in from around the world.

Technological advancements have given rise to e-sports, where people compete in video games. As the scene has grown in popularity and funding, so has the potential for production value. Although the e-sports scene is still relatively young, organizations have been able to put rather elaborate productions together to create a more established stage for competition and a more immersive experience for viewers, whether you choose to attend in-person or watch from the comfort of your home couch. Command center workstations can be integrated into these productions to make the overall experience more entertaining.

Relevant Stats for Every Game

During an e-sports broadcast viewers may feel overwhelmed by all of the action they are witnessing. Command center consoles can be utilized to make it easier for fans to follow along by displaying relevant information. A console could aggregate important data for each player, such as the number of kills, the number of deaths, and the number of damage done. Information that could not be readily available to those watching could be grouped together and displayed in a format that is easy to understand.

Total Immersion

Using LED video walls, command center environments could make the e-sports experience more immersive for competition attendees. Walls could spread across the entire stage to show gameplay or graphics. This level of production can make viewers feel like they are a part of the tournament and can bring the action to the foreground.
