The International Swimming League (ISL) has appointed Gravity Media as its official broadcast content and production partner.
As part of the deal, Gravity will produce coverage of the ISL All-Star Match at the London Aquatics Centre in London on 19th December. The event will see four international teams compete in a unique head-to-head competition.
Gravity said it plans to employ underwater and specialist cameras to deliver coverage of the event, including:
- Robotic rail camera systems, capable of dynamic, high-speed moving shots around the pool deck at speeds of up to 13 m/s.
- Gyro-stabilised robotic camera systems with 3-axis stabilisation and 8K-ready capability
- Starting block and finish-line robotic mini-cams
- Optional real-time data integration, including augmented reality graphics, live tracking and swimmer profiles layered directly into the broadcast feed
The production will be supported by Gravity Media’s full-service OB fleet and 6,000 sqm Production Centre in Cologno Monzese, Italy, ensuring world-class technical execution from the camera to final delivery.
Claudio Cavalotti, Gravity Media Italy managing director, said: “Technology allows us to capture the competition from entirely new perspectives: from above and below the water, through robotic systems and dynamic poolside cameras, to the integration of data and digital content. Our goal is not only to showcase the athletes’ performances, but also to convey the speed, energy and emotion that make this format so modern and appealing to younger audiences.”
