LiveU Supports Educational Tour Bus

News Image
LiveU has announced support for the non-profit John Lennon Educational Tour Bus and its original live stream productions known as @lennonbus.
The shows are being streamed live using LiveU's beltclip LU40-S cellular transmission technology as well as its backpack LU70 to deliver live content to a wide audience.
The John Lennon Educational Tour Bus is a professional audio and HD video recording and production facility. Plans for Lennon Bus Europe have been evolving since the first U.S. Lennon Bus hit the road in 1998 with a mission to provide young people with access to state-of-the-art production studios. Staffed by a crew of three producer/engineers, the Bus is dedicated to providing the young people of Europe with free hands-on opportunities to produce original music, video, photo, game app and broadcast projects reflective of their ideas, values, and creativity.
The John Lennon Bus Europe makes stops at local schools, colleges, concerts, festivals and professional trade shows; providing free tours and workshops in which young people produce original songs, audio recordings, broadcast quality music videos and live stream events.
The John Lennon Bus turned to LiveU in order to broaden its streaming possibilities.
Jeff Sobel, Chief Engineer, with the John Lennon Bus, said: "In the United States our bus is equipped with a roof-mounted satellite dish. While the dish is excellent technology, we found that we frequently wanted to produce live streams from locations away from the bus -- outdoor concerts, events inside schools or conferences, or moving from location to location. LiveU allows us to live stream from more locations, and cover different types of events than we have had open to us before."
The technology has already been used to present live streams featuring Yoko Ono and recording artist Adel Tawil in Berlin, as well as a series of music education forums in association with the NAMM Foundation.
Sobel said: "We're working more and more with LiveU and we're very pleased with the events that we've produced with the technology. Anyone interested in new music, video production, or learning new ways to be creative and inspired will want to tune in to the John Lennon Bus' live streams and we're looking forward to expanding our usage."
