SVG On Demand: Turner Sports’ Robert Occhialini on How Eye-Tracking and Sports Science Are Changing Esports Production

With years of experience in ‘traditional’ sports, the ELEAGUE exec has learned a lot in three years in esports

Turner Sports became one of the first traditional broadcasters to dive into the deep end of the esports pool when it launched its ELEAGUE property in 2016. Since then, it has invested a lot of staff and resources into developing a viewing experience unlike anything seen before in video production.

At SVG’s inaugural Esports Production Forum, our Director of Digital Brandon Costa chatted with Robert Occhialini, VP, esports products and technology, Turner Sports, to discuss how his team is developing technology and broadcast tools — such as eye-tracking — to change how consumers at home watch their favorite esports.
