As the NFL Draft grows bigger and more complex, the team behind the scenes faces new challenges with each passing year. Senior Assignment Manager Ferdinand Delostrinos<\/strong> coordinates with the clubs on team parties and manages the ENG crews for the 25 remote venues\/homes of the prospects. Senior Technical Manager Rhett VanBuskirk<\/strong> manages all technical aspects of the site in Detroit, ensuring that the truck and components, feeds, sets, and cameras are all connected. Senior Production Manager Wade Marshall<\/strong> manages an onsite team taking care of all the logistics, including weather concerns in doing a remote show in Detroit. VP, Broadcast Engineering, Bruce Goldfeder<\/strong> oversees all engineering for the content to and from the L.A. facility. And Director, Engineering, Lorey Andres<\/strong> integrates the complex intricacies of feeds, encoding, paths, control rooms, etc. based in Los Angeles.<\/p>\nDowntown Detroit NFL Draft set<\/p><\/div>\n
And then there\u2019s Acone, who has orchestrated the operational complexities of the production planning and onsite execution since the first NFL Draft moved out of Radio City Music Hall in New York City to an indoor\/outdoor venue in Chicago in 2015. \u201cYou have to give Adam a lot of credit here for pouring everything he has into this event over the last few years,\u201d says Shaw. \u201cThere has been a lot of reminiscing here with it being his last year with us, but he never takes the foot off the pedal. We really appreciate what Adam has put forth. It\u2019s hard to even put into words what his contributions have meant to [NFL Media].\u201d<\/p>\n
Looking back on a decade of Drafts with NFL Network, Acone says, \u201cIt has been a very surreal week, but I\u2019ve always been about the team first and foremost. From runners to executives and everybody in between, this doesn\u2019t happen without every single person here. The best part of all this has been to watch this team come together and pull off such a challenging event year after year. You can trust everyone to get the job done, and I think that\u2019s pretty special.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
