“ Knowing a bit of engineering makes you a much better EVS operator”

When you walk into an OB van, you need to understand what you’re actually working on. EVS Multicam is full of settings that can completely change your day – and your stress level:

• default clip duration

• pre-roll & post-roll

• freeze on mark

• default transitions

• playlist speed behaviour

• guard bands

Every one of these options affects your workflow, timing, and confidence.

That’s why, at the University of Television, we don’t treat “operator” and “engineer” as two separate worlds. All our operators learn some engineering basics: how the system is configured, what can break their workflow, and how to fix or prevent it. The result? Operators who are calmer, faster, and much more confident under pressure.
