The world of live video is ready for you: They say when you’re new you have to pay your dues. TriCaster STUDIO pays it back with interest. Students. Interns. Volunteers. Hired hands. Full-time crew. Any organization can add SD live production and streaming to its day-to-day activities without extensive training, or hiring an expert. From coaches and ministers, to webcasters and neighborhood garage bands, anyone can get their message out—from anywhere.
You’ve got a lot of live action to fit into your low budget: You know what they say about small packages. It’s never been more true than with this 11-channel, multi-camera production system. You get support for up to 6 SD cameras, 2 media players for video clips, graphics and titles, and one network input for sharing computer screens. Plus transitions and visual effects to add the “wow” factor.
The big idea in your head just needs a little launching pad: You can make your own TV show without having to make room for a full-size studio. Just move a couple of boxes aside in your garage, clear off the corner of a desk or a book shelf, and you’ve got yourself a master control room. You can even tuck it under your arm, or stuff it in your backpack to take your production on the road.
Your on-camera cast looks great. Now, about that set: Talent can look like superstars with a television-style studio environment. Change shots in real time without rearranging cameras, and complement your presentation—headline news style—with double-box effects.
You have online viewers while you’re on the air, and others who catch you later: Connect anytime with Web audiences in your community, cross-country or across the globe—with the click of a button. And, without missing a beat, record the entire program in the background for uploading, later viewing, archiving, or saving to disk.
You’ve got a new job to do: turn your upcoming production into a live video, complete with cameras, graphics, titles, and a small budget. Record it so anyone who can’t catch it live can watch it later. And this one’s the clincher—let viewers in other locations stream it from the Web. Oh, one more thing … it had better look good. No pressure.
With the TriCaster STUDIO system, you’re good to go. It’s small, simple, and smart. Compatible with standard-def cameras that your organization might already have on on-hand. Everything you need to produce a show for in-house, online, in the classroom, or out-in-the-world viewing—anywhere SD video makes a powerful impact. Industry experts not required.
