- Our live production division was contracted by the Las Vegas Raiders to provide technical execution of a live-to-tape draft special leading up to the 2020 NFL Draft. Due to social distancing requirements in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the entire production needed to be executed using a REMI workflow. This meant that all program hosts and guests needed the ability to transmit directly from their homes. Leveraging our system integration team, Broadcast Management Group was able to design, engineer, and build compact remote production kits to support the show. REMI kits were sent to veteran sports anchor, Nicole Zaloumis, and former NFL players Lincoln Kennedy and Marcel Reece. Each REMI package included a camera, microphone, IFB, monitor with program return, and lighting kit. Feeds were sent back via IP using existing internet connections at each host location. Broadcast Management Group deployed one of our custom flight packs in our Las Vegas office which served as the technical backbone for the project. All remotes were brought back to our Las Vegas control room where the show was switched, the audio was mixed, and all content was recorded. Broadcast Management Group's technical team included a Director/TD, A1, playback operator, transmission engineer, producer, and production manager, who were geographically located in Las Vegas, Chicago, and Washington, DC.

- The Broadcast Management Group team provided the overall execution of the MGM Raging Bull historic 4K restoration movie premier. Before the screening, TCM host Ben Mankiewicz conducted a Q&A with four key players from the United Artists production: Robert De Niro, Martin Scorsese, his longtime editor, Thelma Schoonmaker, and Irwin Winkler. Winkler is the movie's legendary 90-year-old producer. Robert DeNiro participated via a live remote from Alabama, and Martin Scorsese and Thelma Schoonmaker were in New York while Ben Mankiewicz and Irwin Winkler were with the live audience in Hollywood. The production was shot with 3 Robotic PTZ broadcast cameras in the Hollywood theater, plus 3 Robotic PTZ cameras in New York and 1 camera in Alabama. BMG's award-winning entertainment Director, Todd Mason, directed the broadcast from the Academy Museum, and signals were sent back to BMG REMI Broadcast Hub in Las Vegas from the three locations. BMG used 1 LU 800 at the Academy Museum, 1 LU 800 in New York and 1 LU 300 in Alabama for encoding. For decoding BMG used 2 LU 4000's at the BMG Las Vegas Hub and 1 LU 4000 at the Academy Museum that provided the directors multiview and program return for the audience's monitor. The Broadcast Hub used 2 LU 610 to send out the multiview and return program feeds.

- A package of short films, appearing in the U.S. and elsewhere in art-house cinemas, festivals, and as a television series on U.S. public stations, including adaptations of the Nadine Gordimer South Africa-set stories "Country Lovers", "City Lovers", "Six Feet of the Country", "Oral History", "Praise", "Good Climate, Friendly Inhabitants", and "A Chip of Glass Ruby", plus a Nadine Gordimer interview.
- With the start on June 9 of public hearings by the committee investigating the Capitol riot of January 6, 2021, the House of Representatives embarked on a project with few precedents in American history. Television was still in its infancy when the Army-McCarthy hearings harmed Sen. Joseph McCarthy's popularity in 1954, and both the Watergate hearings and the impeachment of President Bill Clinton took place in vastly different media landscapes. Opening in prime time, with former ABC News president James Goldston aboard to produce, and Todd Mason of Broadcast Management Group to direct, the January 6 hearings are intended to play out more like a dramatic miniseries - or a legal procedural - than the usual congressional committee fare. Following along throughout the hearings is Times television critic Lorraine Ali, offering recaps of the proceedings and analysis of how the dramatic narrative constructed by committee Chairman Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.) and Vice Chair Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) is resonating with viewers.
