Integral to EMG / Gravity Media's technological solutions for broadcast coverage across the summer of cricket is EMG / Gravity Media Australia's proprietary CelBo remote broadcast production solution for coverage of cricket matches.

EMG / Gravity Media Australia's CelBo is a live stream innovation that delivers remote production of events through cellular and cloud-based technologies to deliver individual camera and audio feed coverage to EMG / Gravity Media Production Centres in Sydney and Melbourne.

The technology solution which enhances and streamlines production and technology workflows - allows EMG / Gravity Media and Cricket Australia to create, direct and deliver a complete broadcast production, including on-screen graphics and multiple camera replay capabilities.

Beyond these innovations, EMG / Gravity Media is also delivering a new on-screen graphics solution for this season's coverage.

In collaboration with Boost Graphics, the specialist international graphics subsidiary of EMG / Gravity Media, the team has designed and built a new state-of-the-art on-screen graphics suite to add further depth to the coverage of all cricket matches produced by EMG / Gravity Media in partnership with Cricket Australia and its global rights-holders, including FOX Sports Australia, Kayo, Disney Star and Cricket.com.au/ CA Live.

The new graphics solution will also be deployed on coverage across a range of domestic cricket matches produced by Cricket Australia.
