Stadium TV Production

The project involved a transformative renovation of the Letterman’s Lounge on the third floor of Darrel K. Royal Stadium, turning it into a cutting-edge production studio for the UT TV Production Department. This ambitious overhaul included extensive demolition and reconfiguration of the existing layout to create an inspiring and functional space tailored to the needs of modern media production. We integrated advanced LED lighting systems and established a dedicated data room equipped with high-speed networking capabilities and robust storage solutions, complemented by specialized acoustic treatments to ensure optimal sound quality. This setup created a professional production environment tailored specifically for video production needs.

During the preconstruction phase, our team engaged in thoughtful value engineering with the design team and client, exploring innovative solutions to align with budget while maintaining quality.

Throughout the construction process, we encountered unforeseen structural challenges. However, through proactive communication and close collaboration, we navigated these issues efficiently, implementing creative solutions that adhered to our accelerated schedule.

The completed studio not only meets the specific needs of the production team but also stands as a testament to the University’s commitment to excellence in media. This project enhances UT’s media capabilities, fostering an environment of creativity and innovation that will benefit students and faculty for years to come.
