At the sailing competitions of the 1992 Barcelona Olympics, I operated a special helicopter camera and this new type of photo coverage brought ZDF much recognition and praise.
It was a similar story at the 1996 Olympic Games in Atlanta. The project was called "European Widescreen. Instead of the usual 4:3 picture format, the volleyball competitions were broadcast in 16:9. The test run for a new visual language that found its permanent place on television many years later.
