GO! GRAPHICS
GRAPHICS
Go! Graphics provides live 3D graphics to studios and OB units using the Ross Video XPression Go system. This laptop-based solution is portable and allows us to provide a complete solution on site for any live production. We operate across South Africa and abroad. Click here to see some of our clients.
A thunderbolt connection to a breakout box sends HD SDI out with audio, so we can quickly and easily plug into your studio facility or OB truck and be ready to Go!
We also create the graphical templates for your show, using your elements, clips and data. We can also provide the graphic design for your show. Credits include Miss SA, Idols, The Voice, Dancing With The Stars, Sunshine Tour Golf, Rugby, Football, Boxing, various awards shows, and more.
For live sports data, election results, business indicators, news, sport and social media tickers, our system includes a “Datalinq” server which allows XPression to process incoming data feeds and display them as realtime graphics.
GAME SHOW SOLUTIONS
Together with our partners at Trivio GSS, we are able to offer a complete gameshow solution including gameplay mechanics and technology, as well as the output graphics for big screens and in-vision monitors. Gameplay components include buzzers which can be linked to lighting and sound effects. Podium technology includes team name screens along with a score screen which is linked to a customised scoring control panel.
Games can be played on a big in-vision screen using Xpression’s high resolution 3D output, driven by a custom-designed gameplay dashboard. Scoring data from Trivio can be displayed within 3D graphical templates in real time. The possibilities are literally endless!

QUIZ BUTTONS
Upon “buzz-in”, other contestants are immediately locked out. The system may be manually reset, or this may be done automatically after a presettable time. Buttons illuminate upon buzz-in, and may trigger additional lighting or sound effects.
PODIUM SCREEN FEEDS
Identify your contestants with multiple stunning screen feeds. Indicate their scores live, or display graphics to suit. Changing background images or colours clearly indicates a buzz-in event.
CONTROL SOFTWARE
The custom software is tailored to suit your show. DMX and / or MIDI commands may be sent to trigger lighting changes. Comprehensive auditing is automatically done, and regular snapshots are saved to simplify re-takes.
BIG-SCREEN GRAPHICS
Using our XPression 3D live graphics system, we can display gameplay, scoreboards, show & round logos, looping backgrounds and other video clips on your big screen, or direct to air via your vision mixer.
PRODUCTION
With a wealth of experience in live broadcasting and streaming, Go! Graphics is able to direct and produce your broadcast or livestream.
We are also able to facilitate your production by providing studio space and outside broadcasting facilities through our partners and associates. We have established long-lasting relationships with our preferred suppliers and partners, to provide a high-end solution for any requirement.
Transmission options now extend across satellite and fibre to mobile data streaming, using various platforms and technologies. Go! Graphics are the people to speak to for your live production.
