EMG / Gravity Media, the leading force in production and content, media services and facilities, today detailed EMG / Gravity Media Australia’s partnership with Eurovision in delivering the global television coverage of the Apostolic Visit of His Holiness Pope Francis to Timor-Leste across 9-11 September, as part of the Apostolic Journey to Asia.

A team from EMG / Gravity Media in Australia has been assigned to supply and operate a state-of-the-art satellite news gathering flyaway terminal on behalf of Eurovision to provide complete coverage of His Holiness Pope Francis’ arrival in Timor-Leste, the celebration of Holy Mass and the farewell ceremony in his historic visit to the nation.

EMG / Gravity Media Australia’s head of satellite operations, Greg Littrich, said:

“EMG / Gravity Media is honoured to be involved in this momentous event, helping to bring these pictures to the world.

“We have deployed a fully redundant flyaway satellite uplink that, over the course of the three day visit, has been setup at several key locations around Dili to ensure complete coverage of the visit of His Holiness Pope Francis to the people of Timor-Leste.

“The equipment and technology deployed ensures the world’s media will be provided with the highest quality pictures for news coverage as it happens. We are delighted to support Eurovision in servicing the demands of broadcasters around the world.”
