The European Chess Union is pleased to announce the launch of ECU TV ecutv.eu . ECU TV will be running in trial mode for the next few months to test and improve all technical features.
The development of ECU TV is a multi-project consisting of 4 main pillars:
- Branding & Design:
Development of visual identity, creation of a unique logo, colour scheme, and comprehensive brand book. 3D animations for transitions and a complete setup for OBS live streaming, including custom intros and outros.
- Web development:
Development of the main platform ecutv.eu using a custom framework for scalability and ease management. Presentation of past and upcoming tournaments and archive of games and livestreams.
- Tournament coverage: Build a gaming platform, live streaming, and enhanced user interactivity, comments system and an integrated chess engine.
- Media guidelines: The ECU Media Guide contains media standards for the ECU tournaments and defines guidelines for the organisers for the live and press coverage of the European Championships.
The European Chess Union is taking a further step towards institutional development and communication to enhance the European Championships experience and provide more promotional opportunities for sponsors and supporters. We endeavour to provide the best possible services to our members, chess players and fans.
The project was co-supported by the FIDE Development fund.
