From SlingStudio to Yolobox
For the past five years, Maddie & Kiki’s live cooking show utilized SlingStudio in order to achieve the multi-camera angles that their show is known for. They decided it was time for an upgrade, as the YoloBox Ultra has cutting-edge features that would help them take their production to the next level.
Favorite Features
Maddie & Kiki love the YoloBox Ultra for multiple reasons.
Firstly, the dynamic PIP option is ideal for a cooking show as it allows multiple video sources to be displayed on the screen all at once, capturing every slice, chop, and sizzle.
In addition, one of the main reasons why they chose the YoloBox Ultra is so that they can eventually add NDI sources, wireless cameras, to add even more camera angles to their production.
Conclusion
In conclusion, Maddie & Kiki’s transition to the YoloBox Ultra marks a significant upgrade for their live cooking show, enhancing the viewing experience with its advanced features. This innovative setup allows them to showcase their culinary skills in a dynamic way, capturing every moment with precision and creativity.
As Canada’s leading female Grill Masters, their commitment to quality production sets them apart, inspiring audiences across North America. With the YoloBox Ultra, Maddie & Kiki are poised to continue delighting fans and elevating the art of outdoor cooking to new heights.
