“To think anyone can do this so easily is amazing! All you need is an iPad, The Padcaster, a wi-fi network and a few great apps." Josh Apter of The Padcaster

Post this

New York, NY (PRWEB) October 10, 2014 -- The Padcaster®, the revolutionary iPad case that transforms Apple’s tablet into an on-the-go video production studio, teamed up again with five-time Emmy Award®-winning journalist Michael Artsis of BeTerrific for a wireless multi-camera live broadcast of The Saks Fifth Avenue Style Games put on by the Philadelphia Eagles, their cheerleaders and Brad Smith’s True Foundation. The first broadcast of its kind, The Padcaster’s Josh Apter and Artsis created a completely live multi-camera production using only iPad Airs, iPad Minis, The Padcaster and the Switcher Pro App.

The team began with red carpet interviews in the front of the store, and followed the action with play-by-play coverage of the main event: a series of rapid-fire modeling contests starring some very style-conscious Eagles players in front of five judges and about 450 fans. Michael Artsis of BeTerrific hosted the event live and kept up with all the action, often running the length of the store just to keep pace! “This event was so exciting and truly groundbreaking. To be able to walk into a venue and move without the restrictions of cables or having to worry about tripping over people really allowed us to bring viewers into the action in a way never before possible. I’m thrilled with the results and excited for the future!” says Artsis.

Josh Apter of The Padcaster adds, “To think anyone can do this so easily is amazing. All you need is an iPad, The Padcaster, a wi-fi network and a few great apps – and no cables! It really puts the power in the people’s hands and it’s an honor to team up with Be Terrific and do it first. And let’s not forget this was a great event that raised a ton of money and awareness for a great charity!”

About The Padcaster
The Padcaster transforms an iPad into an on-the-go production studio, providing an easy and professional way for users to create stunning videos on the iPad. Perfect for professional and amateur videographers alike, The Padcaster is an aluminum frame with a urethane insert that securely holds the iPad for a safe and solid feel. Threaded holes lining the edges of the frame allow filmmakers to attach external mics, lights and countless other accessories to enhance the finished product. A standard ¼-20 screw thread and locking-pin design centered on the bottom of The Padcaster lets users connect it to a professional tripod, monopod or shoulder mount for easy, smooth filming. Additional lenses can be attached via the Lenscaster, a separate accessory, to create a wider field of view or bring telephoto capabilities to the iPad’s fixed lens.

The Padcaster’s aluminum frame can also be used as a standalone DSLR cage. Filmmakers can rig a DSLR or other video camera into the cage, enabling them to attach numerous accessories to enhance their shoot.
