OB Truck Builds

Gravity Media works with specialist coachbuilders to oversee the design and build of clients’ own OB trucks. We can design, build, integrate and finish any type of vehicle or mobile unit, from rigid and expando trucks, to remote production and ‘at home’ vehicles and small camera units and pods.

For every bespoke OB truck build, we offer the full spectrum of broadcast systems expertise, ranging from planning and project management through to design, engineering, installation, commissioning, training and aftercare. Our own flagship OB truck Columbus was built by renowned specialist coachbuilder A Smith of Great Bentley (ASGB Ltd), under Gravity Media’s direction. This partnership approach is one that has served us well, both for internal builds and projects for clients such as Sky Sports and the Turkish TV Corporation.

High-end OB trucks are a true tour de force in broadcast terms. Featuring one-touch hydraulic deployment, integrated RF (mast included) and IP connectivity, supertrucks can be specced with massive 4K monitor walls, multiple 4K/HD cameras and powerful multi-format audio-visual capabilities. Spacious, comfortable, and with zoned air conditioning to complete the package. For environments not suited to articulated megatrucks, we also build high-spec van-based units fully equipped to transport live HD footage from hard-to-get-to locations.
