Ok I had to post this here after seeing it on the other site. For anyone who has wondered how they do the VFX for live sports broadcasts - ads on the field that seem to follow the camera around perfectly, on-screen graphics following players around, calculation of ball trajectories - this is a fantastic 11 minute video. You gotta check it out, I don't even care for sports and was mesmerised!

Tech is wild though. I cannot believe they managed to render an entire NHL game into Toy Story settings/characters - including the freaking commentators - LIVE, with only TWENTY seconds delay from the live broadcast.
