The Announcers Thread

I thought last night's presentation was the best of the season. Good camera shots and the booth was good.
 
Amazon Prime ... refreshing commentary booth with AA/Jr/Letarte.

Picture quality is fantastic.

Graphics look amazing. Clean, easy to read. Smooth. Not enormous.

Downside: Using a pylon on the side of the screen of a CW-style leaderboard.

Primes broadcast crew review.

As far as the broadcast on Prime. I had forgotten that Letard and Jr. went to the Jeff Burton squeal your high pitched ass off while you broadcast school and never ever STFU. For a long time there I thought the only 2 cars on the track were Byron and Hambone.

Listened to the race on mute 90% of the time.
 
The worst picture quality for me since antenna's. Couldn't hang with all of the useless info the gerbils were spewing so I had them turned down way low and had PRN on. It was sync'd to real time for a change. I been to way too many rodeo's watching racing to be impressed by the fake drama the gerbs are selling. It's good for the youngsters. The Hambone ****pit B.S. gimmick reminded me of the days of Digger lol. Look at his eyes...no just turn the damn camera around and show the bleeping race will ya.

At times, the broadcast seemed like it was on film, not HD Video .
Although Game Creek Video, NEP and SVG are used for production, enlisting people who can properly utilize those assets is a challenge.
 
They got some issues to clean up with the ticker and excessive background race noise. Wished they would just stop with the gerbil affects and over dramatizations.
 
With Junior being off TV last year, I forgotten how much he talks during a broadcast. Between the booth and the pit road reporters, I felt like I was watching an NBC broadcast. They did a good job.

The only time I ever saw issues with the picture quality is when they shifted from a standard break to something more regionalized. The PQ on those commercials was awful and it took a minute for the race coverage to clear up. Otherwise, the PQ was great. For anyone having issues with that, I'd recommend checking on your bandwidth and how much download speed you have.
