Friday, December 2nd, 2011Back in April the BCPVA awarded Blackmagic Design a 2011 BCPVA VIA award at NAB 2011 for the ATEM Television Studio, an HD video switcher.
If you missed it, here is the link:

Since then I had the opportunity to purchase and review the Blackmagic Design ATEM 1 M/E Production Switcher, which has more features than the ATEM Television Studio.
Here is a link to the review, which was published in EventDV Live.
