Good afternoon everybody, and welcome to our first discussion for the At-Home series, three week event, here at SVG that’ll cover various aspects of the whole move towards at-home production. As we know, the last two months to three months have really seen a big uptick in at-home production, some of it planned. Actually, almost none of it planned. But it’s been a great learning experience and we have some experts involved in the industry, to kind of share their thoughts with us. We have Kyle Arrowsmith, who is the MLB Network engineer. One of, I’m assuming, Kyle, correct?
Kyle Arrowsmith (00:30):
Yes, correct.
Ken Kerschbaumer (00:32):
Curt Bose, who is the MLB Network, NHL Networks senior manager, studio engineering. David Dukes, PGA Tour entertainment, senior director, technical operations. Greg Hopfe, PGA Tour entertainment, VP and executive producer. Greg, did I say that properly?
Greg Hopfe (00:48):
You got it.
Ken Kerschbaumer (00:48):
All right, good. As someone named Kerschbaumer, I get my name mispronounced all the time. So one of my goals is always to mispronounce other people’s names. And Alex Redfern, EVS, SVP, solutions architecture. Thanks, guys, for joining us. Great to see you all. Hope you’re all happy and healthy, most importantly.
Kyle Arrowsmith (01:04):
Happy to be here.
Curt Bose (01:04):
Nice to be here.
Ken Kerschbaumer (01:05):
Great. So let’s get right into it. I want to go back to the middle of march, because obviously that was an interesting timeframe for the industry. MLB Network, you guys were busy getting ready for the season, in the middle of spring training still. I was planning my fantasy baseball draft. The world was good. Dave, you and Greg were obviously in the middle of the TPC Players Championship, a really top notch production. Had the rug pulled out from under you, literally, in the middle of that show. And then, Alex, I know you were busy obviously gearing up for NAB, because EVS has some big plans with respect to NAB. So I wanted to start with the MLB Network. Kyle and Curt, can you walk through sort of those early days, and sort of how you kind of responded to the immediate crisis, which was I guess sort of, “What are we going to do now?
