Live Sporting

Sporting events are captured out on location. They require a lot of on site live editing. There will be a director sat in a gallery making live cuts, and because Sky or another channel are paying millions for the recording of the event they don't want any mistakes, and with wanting a perfectly edited show, it is highly stressful. For example for a Premier League match being broadcast on Sky Sports there will be between 10 and 24 cameras. To keep the audience intrigued there will be a range of different camera angles, not only does this create better coverage of the game it also creates at atmosphere for the fans who cannot be at the match to watch the game live.
Before or after the match and at half time they will probably cut to a studio where they will have a presenter and a pundit and experts talking about the match. The studio set up will often use a shot of the pitch in the background, but sometimes they don't even have to be at the actual pitch itself, they may just use a live feed camera to provide pictures of the stadium.
For example the studio that is used on Skysports is set up in such a way that it is appealing for men to look at, as it features blue colours and famous people from the profession. There is also the Skysports logo plastered on everything, so that the audience know who is providing the coverage for the pre-match or mid match commentary. Also when the people are being interviewed there will be a name tag and then along with that there will be onscreen graphics that contain things such as the time, goals scored, the game, what team is playing and statistics - these statistics are just information that doesn't really make much sense to the audience they are just used to fill the screen with information.
To make some of the shots in the filming of a football match they will use so many cameras on tripods and then they will have a camera which is known as a Spidercam suspended above the pitch which can moved to anywhere on the pitch and this can help create more atmosphere in the game for the audience watching on TV as the people in the stadium might not be able to see what is happening from where they are sitting.
Some of the reasons why so many cameras are used in the production of a sporting match is because its not a stop/start game, every single angle of the sport needs to be captured. 
When filming a sporting match there is usually no restraints for the cameras to be in as it is more or less and open space. But when filming in a studio they have to be mindful of the wires and everything lying around as it will be more of a trip hazard as it is in a confined space.

The plans that I have drawn are what I imagine to studio set up to be and what cameras are placed where.

This is a plan of a football pitch and the cameras that are based around it to capture the game, there could be more cameras that what I have drawn on this plan.
