Filming and webcasts at SFF 2010
As we have done in the past couple of years we will be filming the mainstage performances - this is done primarily to feed the big screens that sit either side of the stage in the main marquee.
There are a couple of upgrades to the set-up this year - for the first time we will be filming both in widescreen and in high definition!.
We'll also be further developing the webcasts from last year, and for the second year running we'll be webcasting mainstage performances live!
Sadly the technical limitations of webcasting means that we can't stream in HD, sorry.
More details of this and timings muhc closer to the event.
