From ArenaNet’s web announcement:
“Join us on Twitch on Thursday, July 30 as we celebrate our second World vs World Desert Borderlands Stress Test by pitting three community streamers against each other in the Desert Borderlands Invitational! In this event, hemsorly, Shinryuku_ku, and Heurix, all playing locally from the ArenaNet offices, will be tasked with leading their respective teams to victory in a three-way battle in the new Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns™ Desert Borderlands WvW map.”
Our audio guru Paul unraveled and surmounted all the technical challenges mixing the audio between players, teammates, and game; while Brian led our video engineering team with Blackmagic’s new macro functionality to rapidly deploy complex PIPs, keys, and lower-thirds.Special shout-out to Casey Schmidt and our buddies at Northwest Grip for all the lighting!
