DAZN Infinity League: OnAir-Graphics Delivers Advanced Broadcast Sports Graphics for Germany’s First Pro-Football League

DAZN Infinity League powered by OnAir-Graphics and VIZRT Sports Graphics

Launched in January 2024, the DAZN Infinity League is Germany’s first professional pro-football esports league. It bridges the gap between traditional football and the rapidly growing world of esports, pitting real-life Bundesliga and 2. Bundesliga football clubs – such as FC Augsburg, SV Werder Bremen, and VfL Wolfsburg – against each other in exciting EA Sports FC competitions. Matches, often in a 2v2 format, take place in a professional arena setting and offer fans a new way to interact with their favorite clubs. OnAir-Graphics was responsible for the comprehensive graphic production of the host broadcast for this innovative format.

Expertise in Host Broadcasting and Specialized Vizrt Scene Building

As your partner for graphic solutions, OnAir-Graphics’ expertise was crucial to the quality of the broadcast for this innovative and forward-looking esports league. We took full responsibility for the graphics host broadcast, ensuring a seamless and precise display for the world feed. We utilized cutting-edge broadcast technology and the leading graphics software Vizrt (specifically Viz Artist and Viz Trio) for scene building and scripting complex graphic elements. This enabled dynamic and rapid on-air display of all relevant information required by the hybrid format.

Customized Game Engine Data Integration and On-Air Control

A central aspect of our work was the development of customized programming interfaces (APIs) and real-time data integration. These proprietary interfaces allowed us direct access to the internal EA Sports FC game engine. This enabled us to capture and process relevant in-game data such as goals, shots, ball possession, passing accuracy, and player ratings in real time. This also included the synchronization of the on-air game clock with the game engine’s match timer. These precisely data-driven graphics, from team statistics to complex player data, were dynamically integrated into the live feed. Our on-site operating team ensured the flawless playout of all graphics and rapid reaction to game situations to optimize the viewer experience.
