LTN Global, a global leader in broadcast-quality IP video transport solutions, has announced that Eric Zornes has been appointed director of operations for its Niles Media division, which specialises in media content creation and TV remote production. Zornes will lead the highly skilled Niles Media production staff in all aspects of production, from the onboarding of new clients and events to postproduction review.
"At Niles Media, we take great pride in making the creation of live content for live events simpler, more cost-effective, and easier to scale," said Neil Harwell, general manager of Niles Media, a division of LTN Global. "Eric's industry experience and deep knowledge will be essential as Niles Media continues to deliver innovation and excellent customer support to our partners, whether they are focused on sports, esports, corporate, entertainment, or long-duration events."
Zornes has been a part of the Niles Media team for more than eight years as a freelance videographer. Most recently, he served as a staff technical manager and logistics coordinator for the company.
"What an honour to be leading such an amazing team of industry innovators," Zornes said. "I am excited about the new challenges that this role will bring and look forward to what Niles Media will be able to provide for the remote production business locally and around the country."
LTN Global acquired Kansas City, Missouri-based Niles Media in March 2019. LTN's fully managed IP multicast network and Niles Media's capabilities in production and downstream video workflows combine to offer a seamless, reliable, end-to-end workflow from content production through to delivery. The solution innovates, streamlines, and advances the use of IP in both event production and transmission.
