This is the kit for filming, editing and streaming, plus the depth cameras and VR set we use to track people and movement in a room.
For us: The photo and video kit lives in the photo and video corner in Studio 4. We film with the Sony A7 IV, edit in DaVinci Resolve and stream with the ATEM Mini. SpaceMusic uses Azure Kinect depth cameras to see where people are and how they move.
