Pedro Pineda specs Marshall CV380 4K cameras for in-venue concert experiences

Pedro Pineda is an independent live events contractor who most recently served as the video director for the rock band Blink-182. He has also directed artists such as Jelly Roll, Machine Gun Kelly, Dua Lipa and Twenty One Pilots. He utilizes a variety of gear and equipment, including Marshall Electronics’ CV380-CS Compact 4K30 Camera, to enhance the in-venue experience when working with bands during live performances.

The Marshall CV380 cameras portray the energy and excitement of Pineda’s live shows and play a crucial role in delivering an immersive experience for fans. “The cameras capture content for the live screens at each venue so audiences can watch aspects of the show up close, no matter where they are seated”, he explains. “The cameras are also recording, so the content can be pared out for social media purposes or archived and preserved for later use. The Marshall CV380 cameras are also sometimes used for streaming and live broadcasting of events. At large festivals there is usually some form of streaming or an actual TV broadcast.”

“I have used various Marshall cameras throughout the years”, he adds. “The CV380 is perfect for my needs; its large chip allows me to capture wide video shots and unique points-of-view, and the camera color seamlessly complements my other gear.”

The last setup that Pineda created for Blink-182 included four CV380 cameras positioned around the drum set. One camera was placed behind it, aimed toward the crowd to capture the action. Another camera was positioned at the kick pedal, looking up at the drummer. The remaining two cameras were positioned at 45-degree angles on both the left and right sides, aimed across the drumheads to capture the performance.

Pineda has incorporated Marshall cameras into a range of applications for live performances. “I have used them during other tours on keyboards and table steel guitars, usually for anything that’s up close where you wouldn’t want a camera operator sitting right there”, he says. “And often they’re also used for reference when the camera feed is not for the actual broadcast program, but instead is used for guitar and drum techs or anyone who’s offstage and needs a view. So, one camera is stationary where techs can look up and see their artists. A lot of times the CV380s also double as playback cameras.”
