FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Alpha Video's Sports & Entertainment Group Is Selected to Integrate HuskerVision HD Production Facilities at the University of Nebraska
State-of-the-art high definition technology to be integrated into several facilities at the University

Minneapolis, MN, March 20, 2009– Alpha Video's Sports & Entertainment Group, the leading national integrator and specialist for the sports and entertainment industry, is excited to announce that it has been selected by the University of Nebraska - Lincoln (UNL) to provide and integrate the new HD production facilities for HuskerVision. The high definition system will feature a tapeless, file-based workflow centered on Panasonic's P2 format and production equipment from Harris, EVS, Apple and others. The system will also tie directly into HuskerVision's media asset management and archival system, a project that was completed by Alpha Video Sports in the summer of 2008.

The University chose Alpha Video Sports because they wanted a system that could drive their five LED video screens at Memorial Stadium, two LED video screens at the Bob Devaney Sports Center, and a studio that HuskerVision uses to produce a variety of productions, including coaches' shows for five sports - all in HD. The system, including the P2 equipment, will also be used to provide video support for all twenty-three of Nebraska's varsity sports. Alpha will work with the University to integrate a system that will be completed in July 2009, in time for the 2009/2010 sports season.

Jeffrey Volk, Director, Alpha Video Sports & Entertainment Group, says, "We are very pleased to be working with HuskerVision on this exciting project and continuing our longstanding history with Nebraska Athletics. This major upgrade will keep HuskerVision at the forefront of production technology - allowing them to better teach their students and better entertain their fans. The system will unleash the potential of not just the LED video replay boards that were installed in 2006, but the additional LED video boards and fascia that will be installed this summer as well."

"The Alpha Video Sports & Entertainment Group offers Nebraska Athletics and HuskerVision high quality hardware and software systems, great systems integration, and very competitive pricing. With their long history of delivering projects for us on time and on budget, we couldn't be happier to have them as our partner on this major project for HuskerVision." - Shot Kleen, Directory of Technology, University of Nebraska Athletics.
