SCENE 01 / WIRELESS VIDEO SYSTEMS
Wireless Video Systems
Professional wireless video for your Canadian production.
Wireless video systems transmit camera feeds to monitors, video villages, and remote viewing stations without physical cables. These systems enable flexible camera movement and distributed monitoring setups, allowing directors and focus pullers to view live feeds from anywhere on set or location.
We source wireless video transmission systems with the range, latency, and channel capacity your production requires. Our team handles frequency coordination and signal testing to ensure reliable, interference-free transmission between camera and monitoring stations across all your shooting environments.

On Location
Teradek Bolt 4K and Hollyland Mars across Toronto LED stages and remote Yukon shoots
Here is how the work lines up. Wireless video transmission in Canada has to flex from a Teradek Bolt 4K MAX feeding a six-receiver video village on a Pinewood Toronto story to a Vaxis Storm 2000 hop across a 600-foot Banff exterior in -15°C snow. Our inventory carries Teradek Bolt 4K LT for the smaller bag rig, Bolt 4K MAX for the 1,500-foot line-of-sight production work, Hollyland Mars 4K for the documentary and corporate tier, and Vaxis Storm 2000 for the long-range story jobs.
Sub-1ms zero-latency transmission is baseline for focus pulling and remote op work, with 4K HDR support for any production capturing on Sony VENICE 2, ARRI ALEXA 35, or RED V-Raptor through Sim Digital, William F. White, Panavision, Keslow Camera, and DAZMO Montreal. Antenna positioning, RF cable runs, and dual-band 5 GHz / 5.1-5.9 GHz spectrum allocation are documented before any transmitter goes on the camera.
ISED (Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada) spectrum coordination runs against the active urban dense-band scan for Toronto, Vancouver, and Montreal — the Pixomondo Toronto LED virtual production stage and the fourteen-stage Vancouver Film Studios complex both bring their own RF interference profiles that need dedicated channel allocation against the production wireless mic complement, lens control (Preston FIZ, ARRI WCU-4, Tilta Nucleus), and any IFB feeds on set.
Remote Yukon Aurora night shoots and Iqaluit cold-weather work add link redundancy planning, since a single-link Bolt failure on a -25°C Nunavut exterior is unrecoverable inside the shoot window. Backup transmitter-receiver pairs travel with longer schedules, IATSE 667 video-utility staging handles Toronto, IATSE 891 covers Vancouver, and bilingual francophone crews run the Montreal calendar — CBSA ATA carnet documentation for inbound global gear is part of every booking touching tier-one US co-productions.
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What wireless video systems do you recommend?
For most professional productions, we recommend Teradek Bolt for its reliability and zero-latency transmission. Vaxis Storm offers excellent quality at a lower price point. The choice depends on your specific requirements and budget.
How many receivers can you support?
Modern systems support multiple receivers from a single transmitter—Teradek Bolt 4K supports up to 6 receivers. For larger video villages, we can configure multiple transmitter/receiver combinations.
What's the range of wireless video?
Range varies by system and environment. Teradek Bolt 4K offers up to 1500ft line-of-sight. For longer distances or challenging environments, we can recommend extended range solutions or antenna positioning.
Do you provide 4K wireless video?
Yes, we offer 4K-capable wireless systems including Teradek Bolt 4K and Vaxis options. 4K transmission allows monitoring of full-resolution images at video village.
What about latency?
Professional systems like Teradek Bolt offer sub-1ms latency—effectively zero latency. This is essential for focus pulling and real-time monitoring. Some budget systems have higher latency.
Can you provide complete video village setup?
Yes, we supply complete video village solutions including wireless transmission, monitors, distribution, and all cabling. We can configure multi-camera villages with separate feeds for director and clients.
