“The Dad Vail Regatta Organizing Committee is more than excited to have Five Tribes Cinema Productions provide exceptionally fine quality live stream coverage for the third consecutive year! Their own rowing experience accompanied by their seasoning in the production field will enable the family, friends, and rowing fans of the collegiate rowers competing in the Jefferson Dad Vail Regatta to enjoy the race day excitement via a live streaming platform” said Kirsten Morasco, President of the Dad Vail Organizing Committee.
“Five Tribes Cinema Productions is proud to be renewing its partnership with the Jefferson Dad Vail Regatta,” said Colin Stewart, CEO of Five Tribes Cinema Productions. “Our commitment to bringing the best coverage to this time-honored regatta has not waivered. Together, with the help of the Dad Vail Regatta Organizing Committee we are preparing a fantastic program for 2024 broadcast. We look forward to covering two days of great racing.”
This year, there will be three elevated camera positions at the 500-meter mark, Cooper River Boathouse, 1500 Meters in and the Finish Line as well as one ground level camera at the starting line. We will also be implementing a launch camera for Saturday’s finals that’ll follow the races from the start. Like in previous years we will also be using two drones that will alternate between races to make sure there is uninterrupted coverage.
Accomplished rower and Dad Vail Board Member Brad Negaard along with Joe Leonard, a local Philadelphia rower and Whitney Powell from Long Beach, CA will announce and provide “Boys in the Boat” commentary throughout both days of live stream coverage.
The 85th Annual Jefferson Dad Vail Regatta, presented by Coca-Cola will be staged on the Cooper River, in Pennsauken Township, New Jersey on Friday, May 10, and Saturday, May 11.
