The NLBRA Finals has rodeo events running simultaneously in three different arenas.[4] A two-person camera crew covers each arena. Camera teams also cover rodeo action from the rough stock chutes and on the arena floor. Several two-camera crews roam grounds, camping areas, and stalls to pick up b-roll, and man on the street interviews. A three-person camera crew also conducts sit down interviews in a studio space.
