You may not know Tom Fletcher as a household name, but you have seen his work. In single-handedly transforming the way we watch sports; he is the man behind the unique camera angles you see in every sports broadcast because of his genius at using robotic cameras.

Here are a few:
Above the rim and behind the backboard in basketball
Behind-the-net and inside the net in hockey
Center ice speed shot for hockey
Center scoreboard camera in hockey and basketball
Low-Home - Baseball (MLB)
Dug out cameras and low-home cameras in major league baseball
The NFL goal post camera
The NASCAR speed shot

Given how much we take these innovative camera shots for granted, it’s no surprise that Tom Fletcher has been named to the Sports Broadcasting Hall of Fame in 2023. He also has five national EMMYs for the application of robotic cameras in sports broadcasting.

Fletcher is the president and founder of Momento, a company that provides game attendees camera captures of themselves as a gameday keepsake. He has been the director of marketing, Optical Devices Division, at Fujifilm since 2016.
