Doug Johnson Productions

A compact mobile control room for serious live production.

The DJP Mobile Production Unit is a 16-foot trailer that keeps our production workflow ready to deploy. It supports Ultra HD 4K, seats up to 8 crew members, and uses flexible routing so the layout can adapt to the job instead of forcing every event into the same workflow.

Why the trailer matters.

The MPU reduces setup time, keeps the production system consistent from event to event, and gives the crew a purpose-built space for switching, engineering, audio, graphics, replay, monitoring, streaming, and recording.

Video

Handles up to 20 cameras, keeps 12 cameras on board, supports 4K production, routes any signal to any monitor, and can produce multiple program outputs.

Audio

Dante-based mixing, digital snakes, dedicated video mixes, Genelec monitoring, and separate multichannel audio recording.

Intercom

Custom Dante-based intercom with routable production lines, station connections, audio processing, and fiber availability for longer runs.

Power and connectivity

Runs efficiently from two 110V 15A circuits or generator support, includes battery backup, solar assist, and redundant cellular connectivity.

Layout and reference materials.

The MPU is built so most video signals can be routed to most locations inside the trailer. That lets the crew optimize the layout for the event instead of being locked to a single seating plan.

The trailer remains a powerful option, and many DJP events now use the flypack when a smaller footprint is the better fit.
