1 INTRODUCTION
This manual has been produced as a supplement to the FIBA Bid and Event Manual as well as to the FIBA Marketing Manual and contains further information and responsibilities for Host Broadcaster and LOC obligations with respect to media coverage of the FIBA events. It is an official FIBA document. Additional information or up-dates may be available from time to time and will be sent to participating LOC or broadcasters for inclusion in this manual. This manual should be used in conjunction with the Internal Regulations of FIBA and the FIBA Corporate Identity guidelines. The FIBA Corporate Identity guidelines are available on an online style guide that contains all of the reproduction materials for the correct use of the FIBA logo and the production details for all promotional and commercial uses of the FIBA logo. To access the FIBA online style guide, please connect to www.identity.fiba.com, and to download, please use the following username: fiba\wearebasketball and the password: ?2dtknms. Within this manual there are a number of rules and regulations designed to enhance the game coverage and provide support for FIBA Broadcast Partners. By mutually respecting rules laid out hereafter all parties involved should be able to maximise the value in being involved with the FIBA event. Those not following the rules and regulations laid out in this manual may find their privileges revoked. This manual is relevant to the television production of any FIBA or FIBA zone competition and the FIBA TV Department is available to be contacted for any advice on any of the TV aspects. FIBA is responsible for the negotiation and conclusion of all contracts relating to the worldwide transmission of all games of the FIBA World Championships, the FIBA Zone Senior Men and Women Championships as well as other agreed FIBA Zone competitions. The term Transmission includes all coverage by terrestrial, satellite, cable and closed circuit television, internet video, radio and film on a live or delayed basis whether broadcast complete or in highlights. All new technical broadcast innovations come under these terms including digital, mobile, broadband, IP, high definition, wide screen, compressed vision, 3-D, virtual animated graphics and video, computer or other multimedia formats. FIBA alone can authorise broadcasts of all or any games of the Event, including arrangements for provision of basic coverage and for all live and delayed broadcasts (highlights, news or otherwise) into all countries. In addition, the provision to monitor and control photographic stills and/or computer digital recorded/transmitted stills rests with FIBA. The Broadcast Partners appointed by FIBA will have the right to broadcast games and highlights in their territories to the exclusion of any other broadcasters other than those broadcasters appointed by FIBA. No television broadcasters, radio stations, video or film companies will be allowed access to the games without the prior approval of FIBA. No broadcasters are permitted to broadcast in whole or in part any of the games without FIBAs prior consent. The LOC has certain obligations with respect to the Host Broadcaster and Broadcast Partners appointed by FIBA for the Event, which are detailed below. The details of the following items and the specific requirements in the Event venues will be discussed by FIBA, the Host Broadcaster and the LOC at the site visits that will take place before the start of the Event. In this context the
Page 5/38
decision of FIBA shall be final and binding. The support for television includes the provision of certain space and facilities in the venues for the Host Broadcaster and Broadcast Partners, as well as the observation of certain practices and procedures to ensure consistency across all games of the Event. In general, broadcasters requirements include, but are not limited to, space for camera positions, commentary positions, TV studios, presentation and interview positions, television briefing room and space for parking several television technical and production vehicles.
Any questions concerning the use of this manual should be forwarded to the FIBA TV Department at the address listed below:

Page 6/38
1.1 Basic Principles

The LOC shall provide the necessary space as is reasonably required for the installation of cameras by the Host Broadcaster and Broadcast Partners according to the Broadcast Plan that has been developed by FIBA in consultation with the Broadcast Partners. Please refer to Appendix 1 FIBA Premium Standard Production Plan. The exact details of the location of all cameras, studios, presentations and interviews will be discussed and agreed between the LOC, the Host Broadcaster, Broadcast Partners and FIBA on the site visits and re-confirmed between these parties on the days before the technical rigging and set-up begins. The movement of any camera positions before the start of the Event will be subject to there being no seat kills for the LOC. To ensure uniformity of coverage and the high quality production of basketball which is vital for the sport, FIBA will co-operate with the Broadcast Partners to ensure their understanding of the principles. There will be a FIBA approved Event Broadcast Plan for the Event venues providing guidelines to optimise the conditions for the Broadcast Partners, while respecting the game itself.
1.2 The Court

Broadcast equipment and personnel shall not be placed in a way that can endanger players and officials. All cameras shall be a minimum of two metres from the court but, where advertising signage is in position, they must be located behind this signage.
Only movable, handheld cameras working for the Host Broadcaster will be allowed around the court and team benches but will only be permitted on the court during time-outs and at half time. Broadcast representatives should make no approaches to players or coaches for interviews or comments during play unless previously agreed with FIBA. Such approval shall only be granted in exceptional circumstances.
1.3 The Officials

Broadcast equipment and personnel should not cause any confusion or obstruction to the view or movement of the game officials, players and coaches.
1.4 The Spectators

Camera equipment and personnel should not unreasonably obstruct the spectator view of the court. Cameras should not record the crowd in a manner which would cause any dangerous activity.
Page 7/38
1.5 The Players and Coaches

Broadcasters shall respect the needs of the players and coaches. All arrangements for interviews should be made via the relevant FIBA and/or LOC representative and interviews may only take place outside of the technical zone in areas that are judged to be safe for all participants. Reporters shall not approach players or coaches for interviews or comments during play. Microphones must not be placed in any position which may cause a danger to a player. Particular care must be taken by Broadcast Partners to ensure that sound from the team benches is not transmitted unless written permission has been obtained from the respective team and approved by FIBA.
1.6 Other Media

Broadcasters shall respect the needs of other media, the written press, radio and photographers. For example, adequate positions for photographers shall be made available alongside the TV cameras on the end lines, behind the advertising boards. The press working areas shall not be disturbed during the game by broadcast commentators or cameras. Strobe/flash photography will be organized by the LOC Press Officer and positioned (out of camera shot) to reduce interference (maximum of 4 sets per game). In adopting these principles FIBA is allowing more flexibility and opportunity for the Broadcast Partners in order for them to produce top quality programmes. FIBA expects the Broadcast Partners to reciprocate by respectfully accepting these arrangements so that all may benefit in the future. Any Broadcast Partner or individual not respecting the above principles at any game will have their access privileges for the current event, and possibly for future events, withdrawn. The allocation of any limited space, access or facilities for the Host Broadcaster and other parties shall be determined by FIBA following discussion at the main site visits between FIBA, the Host Broadcaster and the LOC prior to the start of the Event. The decision of FIBA at the Event shall be final and binding in this respect.
Page 8/38
2 REQUIREMENTS
2.1 Power, Lighting and Utilities
Power, lighting, water and other utilities used within the respective venues for the broadcast and organisation of the Event games shall be provided free of charge by the LOC. The average maintained illumination should be 1800 lux in the vertical plane (towards the camera lens) and spread evenly on the basketball court floor area without any shadows or patches. The rest of the arena should have sufficient illumination (approximately 1000 lux). Please refer to Appendix 2 Lighting Specifications. If a stadium has large windows, specific attention should be given to ensure that light does not disrupt the broadcast production quality. In such a case the windows would need to be covered by curtains or blinds. Emergency lighting of at least 1000 lux should be available. Power and back-up power for the Host Broadcaster OB vans, graphics company and commentary area should be provided by the LOC. Should this power supply not be sufficient for the broadcasters unilateral vehicles, the LOC is responsible for any additionally required power supply. The Host Broadcaster should, if necessary, assist Broadcast Partners by providing power supply, on request, at standard rate card costs. All power and back-up power for the Host Broadcaster and Broadcast Partners needs shall be an uninterrupted power source and on a different phase from the rest of the arena. Power and lighting in all other working areas (e.g. TV studios, commentary positions, etc.) is the responsibility of the LOC and should be made available until all work is finished. After the games, the LOC shall ensure that the broadcast working areas and other working areas are adequately lit until all work is completed. Also, the LOC must ensure that a service engineer from the telecommunication operator is always onsite throughout the duration of the Event for any last minute requests or problems.
2.2 Television Broadcast Van Parking

Sufficient space to form a TV compound must be provided at each Event venue by the LOC for the parking of all production vehicles, OB vans, transportable earth stations and computer technical vehicles that may be required by the Host Broadcaster, Broadcast Partners and graphic companies for their transmission of the Event. There shall be space adjacent or in close proximity to the TV compound for authorised private cars and/or personnel carriers. The TV Compound should be as close as possible to each stadium and available up to three days before the start of the Event. It must be fully secured with twenty-four hour a day security from two days before the start of the Event to one day after the end of the Event. There shall be no access for the general public. The security of the area is the responsibility of the LOC. If the line of sight for the earth stations is obstructed then an additional area may be required for parking the satellite uplink vehicles.
FIBA 2007 Edition /APRIL Page 9/38
In general the Host Broadcaster will require space to park vehicles, these would be the production truck, editing, computer graphics, telecom, uplinks and rigging trailers. Broadcast Partners may require additional spaces but the final number will depend on the total number of requests from the Broadcast Partners.
2.3 Television Studios

The LOC must be ready to provide the space, if available and requested, for television studios, each of minimum dimensions 6m x 4m x 2.5m. These should be located sensibly within the stadium for use by Broadcast Partners for their unilateral requirements. Power and lighting should be provided by the LOC, technical equipment and additional lighting by the Broadcast Partners. If requested, FIBA will provide an Event backdrop, but Broadcast Partners are responsible for their own furniture in the studios unless it is offered within the Host Broadcasters rate card.
2.4 Commentary Positions

Number of Positions Required The number of commentary positions required for the Event will vary from venue to venue depending on the popularity of the teams playing there. However, it is important that the LOC makes available sufficient space. FIBA and the HB shall allocate the seating within the Commentary positions. Each position should allow for two to three commentators (minimum 180 cm). Additional positions will be required for radio commentators. Location Commentary positions must be situated on the same side of the court as the main television cameras with an uninterrupted view of the entire playing area and surrounding adjacent areas. The commentary positions should have an elevated site, normally in line with the centre circle and with easy access. Where possible, access should be separate from the public and suitably fenced or boarded. The LOC is also requested to provide security for the commentary area to ensure that it is completely free of members of the public. Construction The LOC must provide the commentary positions if they do not exist as a permanent fixture in the arena. The Host Broadcaster will be responsible for supplying and rigging all technical equipment. If commentary positions need to be built by the LOC the following recommendations for construction are made.
Page 10/38
There should be sufficient space for two to three commentators per position (minimum 180 cm) and reasonable access behind the seats for other commentators to reach their positions. In a normal tribune this would mean nine normal spectator seats per commentary position (three for a desk, three for seats and three for access). Sufficient space on the table for two TV monitors, standard commentary box with two headsets, telephone and papers.
The height of the table should be approximately 75 cm. Ideally television monitors should be housed in a recess in the table top with a sitting position enabling the commentators to see the entire area of the arena floor and monitor at the same time. The commentary positions should not be enclosed so as to allow access to the crowd atmosphere. It is preferable that perspex dividers are installed between the commentary positions. Lighting in the commentary positions should be sufficient to read by but not glaring in order to avoid reflections on the TV monitor screen. Each commentary position should have at least four electrical plug sockets available for use. Following the site visit, some commentary positions may be designated to allow a camera and backdrop to be added for use for commentator presentations. Charges No charges are to be made by the LOC for commentary positions unless very special construction for a particular Broadcast Partner is required. Rate Card A rate card will be introduced by FIBA and the Host Broadcaster for commentary positions either fully or partially equipped. There will be no charge for a non-equipped position. All other technical or production facilities will be charged as per the rate card. The rate card should be finalised and distributed no later than six months before the start of the Event.
2.5 Camera Positions

In order to guarantee a consistently high standard of TV coverage across all Event venues, FIBA has agreed that there will be a minimum number of camera positions to be used by the Host Broadcaster, plus additional positions that should be available to the Host Broadcaster and Broadcast Partners to supplement their coverage. The Host Broadcast cameras will be set up on the same side of the stadium as the team benches and Scorers Table. All camera positions are subject to the space available.
However, the LOC shall ensure that the minimum number of camera positions described below can be accommodated (before tickets are sold or allocated) unless they present any safety or security risks. The LOC shall be responsible for both the construction and the cost related to the provision of any camera platforms required for the minimum number of cameras. Where camera platforms are required they must be completely stable, cordoned off from the public seating and must be fully secured with limited and controlled access. All cameras must respect the distances and charges placed upon them. The production plan requires a minimum of eight to ten cameras. Please see Appendix 1 FIBA Premium Standard Production Plan. Optional Camera Positions In addition to the minimum positions stated, the Host Broadcaster may wish to expand its coverage with additional positions, giving new innovation and insight subject to approval during the site visit. Changing Room Cameras Additional cameras may be positioned unobtrusively in the changing room of the team. This will only be permitted if the Head of the Team Delegation gives approval. Any footage from the changing room will be visual only (i.e. no sound) and will be used just before the game, at halftime and just after the game. Broadcast Partners Unilateral Camera Positions Broadcasters with full unilateral facilities may, subject to FIBAs approval, share some of the HB positions.
2.6 ENG Crews - Rights Holders

Accredited ENG crews from Broadcast Partners are permitted to work in the following areas: Pre-Game Presentation Outside the technical zone and according to the guidelines. Players Entry on to the Court On the same side as the scorers table, in the same position as the photographers for the team introductions. During the Game Behind the advertising boards located at the end-lines. ENG crews may change ends only at half-time and not during the game. After the Game Post game unilateral interview positions (subject to prior approval from the FIBA representative and the Host Broadcaster, shall be discussed and agreed at the pre-game production meeting), post game press conference and the mixed zone. An ENG crew should normally consist of a maximum of two persons. Reporters will be allowed access to the court area for pre-game presentations and for the flash interview, but are not permitted to be on the court or at the players entry area during the game.
Page 12/38
2.7 ENG Crews - Non-Rights Holders

In principle, non-rights holders shall be allowed access to the post-game press conference and the mixed zone only. All game material for news access purposes by non-rights holders must be sourced through the Broadcast Partner for that territory. Under no circumstances may cameras of non-rights holders be allowed access into the stadium for game coverage. Non-rights holders must not bring any equipment into the arena before or during the game, or must deposit their ENG cameras in the LOC Media office upon entry to the stadium and may only collect their equipment after the final signal (e.g. buzzer, horn or claxon). For the game they may be granted, space permitting, normal press accreditation by applying directly to the LOC.
Page 13/38
3 INTERVIEWS - GENERAL PRINCIPLES

No access is allowed to team changing rooms for representatives of the media before, during or after the game. No media representatives (including TV, radio, ENG crews, photographers or reporters) other than agreed Host Broadcaster cameras are permitted to go onto the court before, during or after the game. Host Broadcaster cameras are only allowed on the court during time-outs or intervals. No interviews are allowed by media representatives if the game goes into overtime. Only Host Broadcaster production and technical staff are permitted around the court and bench areas but must not obscure the view or disturb players, coaches or game officials. These HB personnel must not constantly obscure the view of the audience. Reporters and interviewers that have been previously authorised by FIBA/LOC can move into unilateral interview positions five minutes before the end of the game. Any interviews held on the arena floor and not in the unilateral interview areas must be both authorised by FIBA and conducted with radio equipment in order to limit the amount of free standing cable. Any production or technical staff working on the arena floor (not cameramen) and not in fixed positions must also be equipped with non-cable, radio communication head-sets. Radio reporters, written press and non-rights holders ENG crews may have access to the press conference room and mixed zones only.

3.2 Interviews Prior to the Game

Broadcast Partners are permitted to conduct interviews with players and coaches upon their arrival at the stadium subject to the approval of the FIBA Press Officer. Interviews with players must be concluded by the start of the warm-up period on the court. Interviews with coaches must be finished by the time the warm-up is concluded. After this time interviews are only permitted with celebrities, studio guests and non-participating players or officials. Interviews with participating players and coaches will take place at the pre-game unilateral interview area which shall be located behind one of the baskets at one end of the court. This location means that the playing court will provide the background shot for the interview.
3.3 Pre-Game Presentations

Broadcast Partners may have a presenter near to the court before the game to introduce their programme. The location and timing of any such presentation must be agreed in advance by the FIBA Press Officer, but must always be outside the technical zone and must be completed a minimum of ten minutes before the tip-off. Whenever possible, the Broadcast Partner should use an Event backdrop and microphone clip.
Page 15/38
3.4 Interviews During Game

Interviews during play are permitted with non-participating players and officials or celebrities. No interviews are allowed with fouled-out or substituted players on the bench unless pre-approved by FIBA and only with the total agreement of the team involved. Half-time/Overtime Interviews Interviews between halves are only permitted either at the start of the half-time interval or at the end of the final period before an overtime period and are only possible with the coaches. These interviews may only be conducted with the total agreement of the team involved and the FIBA Press Officer, and must take place in an official Unilateral Interview position, or if applicable, in a TV Studio close to the dressing rooms. Half-time interviews are only granted to the Host Broadcaster and the Broadcast Partners of the two participating teams.
3.5 Post-Game Unilateral Interviews

The post-game unilateral interviews should be conducted at the end of the game in the designated Unilateral interview position which shall be located near to the court on the route to the players changing rooms or in the pre reserved TV studio. The Unilateral Interview area should allow for Event Interview Backdrops to be placed behind the interview area and television lighting to be erected in front (the backdrops will require a minimum floor space of 6 metres x 4 metres). The Host Broadcaster should provide the necessary lighting and monitors. National teams participating in the Event must make their coach and at least one player available for a Unilateral interview immediately after the end of the game. The FIBA Press Officer and/or LOC Press Officer will assist the Host Broadcaster in bringing the coaches and players to the Unilateral interview point. The Host Broadcaster should inform the FIBA Press Officer and/or LOC Press Officer during the second half of the game which players they would like to interview. Failure by the teams to follow this procedure could lead to FIBA imposing fines on the relevant persons. Players who are selected for random drug testing after the game (doping control) will not be available for interviews until after the drug test has been fully completed. The order of interviews will normally be: winning team - losing team. The final decision will be taken by the FIBA Press Officer at the TV meeting after consultation with the two Broadcast Partners concerned. The Host Broadcaster will have priority for interviews. The interviews must be conducted outside of the technical zone in an area which is judged to be safe for the participants. Interviews must only be with the prior agreement of the FIBA Press Officer. Broadcast Partners conducting such unilateral interviews must not delay any multilateral (i.e. HB) interview. All interviews must take place in front of the Event interview backdrops.
Page 16/38
3.6 The Mixed Zone

After the game, a mixed zone shall be set up to offer opportunities for the written press, radio and non-rights holders to interview the players. The mixed zone should be able to accommodate the appropriate number of journalists and should be located between the court and the changing rooms and/or the changing rooms and the team buses. It shall be split up into three areas: one for the Broadcast Partners who shall receive the top priority positions, one for the TV non-rights holders and one for journalists from the written press. After the game, all players and coaches must pass through the mixed zone but they are under no obligation to give interviews. Failure by the teams to follow this procedure could lead to FIBA imposing fines on the relevant persons/teams. The LOC shall provide, 6 months before the event, a map showing how the teams will proceed from the court to the changing room via the mixed zone.
3.7 Press Conferences

Pre-Game Press Conference The National Teams should provide an opportunity for the journalists to meet some of their players and the coach on the day before the Event by holding a press conference in co-ordination with the FIBA Press Officer and/or the LOC Press Officer. Post Game Press Conference There will also be a post-game press conference within 10 minutes of the end of each Event game. Both participating national teams are obliged to make available their coach and at least one player who has played to attend this press conference. The press conference shall be conducted by the LOC Press Office, assisted by the appointed interpreters. A designated area should be established within the room for TV cameras and ENG crews, preferably on a raised platform to ensure that all media representatives are given an equal opportunity to observe the press conference.
Page 17/38
4 VENUE PROCEDURES
4.1 Accreditation System
Accreditations shall be distributed to those people that have a working role during the Event. It is important to note that no accreditation allows the holder a seat in the stadium. FIBA shall be responsible for the approval of all accreditations related to the FIBA Family of Member Federations, Central Board Members, etc., as well as for all Media, Broadcast and Commercial Partners personnel. The HB and Broadcast Partners will be provided with a specific accreditation card, which will be valid for the entire event. This accreditation card will give access for Host Broadcaster and Broadcast Partners to all games including the specified areas within the arena. LOC will be responsible for the production and the distribution of the accreditation cards. All Broadcast Partners personnel shall collect their accreditation on-site at each venue or at the central Accreditation Centre. Rights, Access and Obligations for Card Holders As a general point of principle, accreditations are not transferable and must be visibly worn at all times. Validity: for the entire event Access: to all games Access to arena areas: access to all areas within the arena except the Competition and VIP area. The accreditation card does not give the right to a media or spectator seat except for the commentary position. A limited number of media observer seats per game can be booked according to space available. Misuse: the accreditation cards are subject to withdrawal in the case of misuse.
4.2 Bibs/Vests
In addition to the accreditation and in order to better control each parties rights, FIBA will supply coloured bibs for the following personnel: TV bibs: For all HB cameramen, plus technicians working on the court during the game TV bibs: For all rights holders cameras and courtside crews Photo bibs: For all courtside photographers TV bibs shall be used to identify accredited camera crew personnel. All cameramen, whether in the tribune or around the court are required to wear a TV bib. In addition, all technicians working on the court are also required to wear a TV bib. The TV bib alone will not allow access to any area in the stadium; an accreditation card will be required as well.
The Host Broadcaster will receive numbered bibs before the event and is responsible for distributing and collecting the bibs in conjunction with the FIBA TV representative.
Page 18/38
The LOC Press officer will receive numbered photographer bibs before the event and is responsible for the distribution and the collection of the photographer bibs before and after each game or session. All photographers are obliged to wear the bibs during the game. In order to protect the exclusive rights of all of the Broadcast Partners and to ensure security in the stadium, all bibs must be returned to the Host / LOC Press Office after the game or session. A deposit may be required from the LOC Press Office to ensure the return of all bibs.
4.3 Entrance and Security

The LOC shall be responsible for all security matters involved in the organisation of games, including: Television compound Satellite uplink points Entrance for television rights-holders Entrance (if different) for non-rights holders, where they are guided to the Press office to deposit their camera and audio equipment Access to the commentary positions and/or observer seats IBC (if applicable)
4.4 Pre-Event Preparations

Pre-event preparation will consist of one-day site surveys. The following arrangements will be made by the different parties: FIBA FIBA will make arrangements with the LOC for site surveys and will make arrangements with the Host Broadcaster and on-screen graphic suppliers to join the site visits. LOC The LOC should make the following arrangements: Arena facilities completely open in basketball set-up and not occupied with any other events during site visit Two meeting rooms LOC representatives responsible for co-ordination with FIBA LOC Press Officer available Arena manager available Arena electrician available LOC/Arena seating/ticketing LOC/Arena catering Arena Scoreboard/Videoscreen sound system operator Arena television production company (if applicable) Site Visits The purpose of these visits is to review the entire organisation of the FIBA Broadcast Partners requirements for the FIBA Events and to take final decisions on the necessary arrangements for the entire event.

5 PRODUCTION OF THE INTERNATIONAL FEED

5.1 Philosophy
The International Feed produced by the Host Broadcaster (HB) should be a continuous broadcast high quality signal, with full international sound and effects of all games of the competition. It shall consist of the complete game action and include all of the floor activity. The International Feed will start 10 minutes before the Tip-Off (according to FIBA protocol) and up to 5 minutes after the final whistle (see Game Running Order to be provided in due course).

6 TV GRAPHICS
The Event Information System shall ensure that the results, statistics, rankings and other competition-related information are gathered and distributed to the various media (TV, commentators, journalists, Internet) in a timely, efficient and reliable way.
The Event Information System includes the following elements: Scouting Commentators Information System TV Graphics Printing Interfaces to Other Systems
Commentators Information System
TV Graphics generator Scouting Printouts Broadcasters
FIBA Database Public Information System
Internet
The information service for both on and off-screen graphics shall be available for every game. The TV graphics are game information data provided by the Event Information System to the Host Broadcaster as a TV signal. The graphic elements have been designed in harmony with the FIBA Corporate Identity guidelines and the Event look. The TV graphic operations require very close collaboration between the operator of the graphic generator and the TV producer. FIBA shall establish standards in order to ensure the quality of the TV graphics.
It is important to ensure that the information from the Public Information System which includes items such as the scoreboard(s), the game clock and the 24-second clocks is consistent with the other systems. For example it is vital that the time on the game clock is the same as the time displayed on the TV graphics. In order to ensure this, the scouting set-up and personnel must use the time of the game clock and the 24-second clock. This link may be
Page 26/38
possible through an automatic interface with the game clock and the 24-second clock but if this is not possible then it must be made manually.
6.1 Languages
The official international language of FIBA graphics will be English. However, unilateral broadcasters may have the option of receiving a simultaneous graphics feed in their own language (at an additional cost). If required, this should be requested at the time of the site visit and the unilateral broadcaster is required to supply the computer graphics company with the correct terminology in their own language for all basketball terms used in the graphics. All other language computer graphics feeds are produced simultaneously with the English International Feed and cannot be operated independently.
6.2 On-Screen Credits

Official FIBA Partners in the IT and Timing categories are entitled to on-screen identifications during all of the games. All game feeds provided to rights holding broadcasters shall be dirty feeds including all graphic information and on-screen credits and should be used without any superimpositions.

7 COORDINATION OF BROADCAST PARTNERS REQUIREMENTS

7.1 Commentary Positions
According to the Broadcast Partners bookings and to the Booking Office allocation, each on site broadcaster will be assigned a fully equipped commentary position (or semi-equipped position, i.e.: without the commentary unit). This position should include: Colour television monitor (International Feed) - mini 14 inches CIS: Statistics monitor - mini 14 inches Commentary unit (with an ISDN and a hybrid phone capacity) with 2 to 3 headsets with incorporated microphones Power outlets The commentary positions should, as a minimum, have the capability for coordination and programme feed back. All commentary positions should be available at least 2 hours before the game for commentators orientation and system testing. The Commentary Control Unit (if necessary) should be set up next to the commentary positions (in a so called: Commentary Control Room). FIBA TV shall receive free of charge one fully equipped commentary position for each game and the audio feed from this FIBA Commentary position shall be cabled for distribution on the satellite.
7.2 Pre- and Post-Game Unilaterals

Each Broadcast Partner may request pre- and/or post-game unilaterals (use of one camera and/or OB play out facility) that shall be planned by the Booking Office. One hand held camera from the Production Plan (as described above) will be used for pre-and post-game unilateral interviews. The HB shall also provide three (3) wireless ear pieces and two (2) wireless hand held microphones at the Interview Position. The OB van will have to prepare and send an identification for each confirmed unilateral (origin, timing, duration and broadcaster name) + kHz tone.
7.3 Unilateral Productions

Those Broadcast Partners who wish to personalise the International Feed will arrive on site with their own production facility in order to supplement the International Feed produced by the Host Broadcaster. These Broadcast Partners will be invited to attend the preliminary on-site visit of the venues in order to check all of their specific space requirements which are necessary for them to achieve their goal. In the case of limited space and/or facilities, FIBA shall make the final binding decision on allocating the available resources.
Page 29/38
8 INTERNATIONAL DISTRIBUTION
FIBA TV is planning to organise the satellite distribution of the events and will co-ordinate all bookings with the Host Broadcaster. For each FIBA Event, FIBA TV will distribute an offer (the Multilateral Booking Form) to all FIBA Broadcast Partners requesting details of their participation in each game. All FIBA Broadcast Partners should inform FIBA TV (via the Multilateral Booking Form provided by FIBA TV) of their participation in: Full game (specify Live or Recorded for delayed broadcast) Highlight Programme (specify Live or Recorded for delayed broadcast) Pre or post multi-unilateral (specify BETA play out or HB camera) Commentary Position (specify sound requirements) Other unilateral facilities (e.g. ENG crew etc.) The deadline for participation for each round of the competition will be clearly indicated so that broadcasters may determine their participation based on the results of the previous games and therefore should not change their participation after the set deadline in order to help FIBA TV and the HB with its planning requirements. Those bookings will be considered as binding and charged according to the rate card. Cancelled bookings will not be refunded. Please note that it may not be possible to accept a late request once the participation and satellite allocation has been established. Technical Co-ordination The Host Broadcaster will deliver the signal of the live game and the highlights programme free of charge to the transmission point which may be: the International Gateway of the host country (CNCT), a Transportable Earth Station (TES) on site and a pan-regional satellite, as agreed with FIBA TV. If FIBA TV decides to install a TES at the stadium, this will be the origin for both the live game transmission and also the highlights summary transmission. The Host Broadcaster should take this into account when planning the production of the highlights summary. In order to guarantee the quality of the transmission signals, FIBA TV may request the Host Broadcaster to test all uplinks prior to the game. Where the Host Broadcaster is able to originate International Sound in stereo, FIBA TV and the HB will endeavour to transmit both stereo and mono mixes, subject to the technical capacity of the uplink. In addition to the International Sound there will also be the FIBA TV audio from the FIBA Commentary Position distributed on a separate audio track.
