It will be the fourth time for United to supply MTV EMA with a
full array of high-end facilities for recording all elements that
together will culminate in the live show on Sunday evening.
Hilversum-based United facilitated the EMA three times before, in
Glasgow, Amsterdam and Milan. 'Thanks to our advanced network
equipment everyone can access every piece of content,' Burnaby
Lautier, Manager Special Projects, explains. 'Using special servers,
all elements are linked through a fibre network. This is how we
create a complete network where everyone can go and pick content.
Whether you direct the show in the US, or need videos for social
media, everyone can access all files 24/7. No matter what edit or
clip you need. Are you looking for some red carpet shots of the
stars? No problem.'

To make it all possible a United crew of more than 100 people has
pitched camp in Rotterdam, bringing with them an impressive arsenal
of technical equipment, including 13 vehicles. There are 5 big
broadcast vehicles, a complete digital audio unit, a DDP truck, 14
mobile editing units, 100 monitors and screens, 38 cameras and
countless kilometres of cable. A full state-of-the-art intercom
system has been set up allowing hundreds of people to stay in touch
constantly. 'Communication is key.'

United is proud that once again the organisation has trusted
United as its facility management partner for the EMA 2016.

At the EMA various awards will be presented to (European)
musicians and artists. The line-up includes Bruno Mars, Zara Larsson,
Lukas Graham, Shawn Mendes, DNCE and Dutch DJ's Martin Garrix and
Afrojack. Every year the show attracts 40 million viewers across more
than 60 stations worldwide. On-line views are close to 200 million.
This year sees the 23rd anniversary of the MTV European Music Awards.
