The Procedure

What is Story

• Follow the chart below as the story evolves from a news event to a full-blown in-depth interactive report, where YOU, the viewer, order the news by priority and decide which elements of a story are most important.

Improving the visual impact of News presentation• In today's competitive market, broadcasters have to make every effort to

maximize the visual impact of their news shows. Huge video wall installations and the use of virtual elements to enhance the set have become the rule rather than an exception: Animated backgrounds, interactive diagrams and 3D objects rendered in real-time are a natural part of modern studio environments.

• The news solution offers an easy way to create high quality visual images even for the most challenging productions. The virtual studio module provides an easy-to-use drag-and-drop interface and features a comprehensive studio and production workflow as well as impressive graphics capabilities. Now, graphic designers are only limited by their imagination when transforming the stage area into an impressive virtual studio. The module can also be used to enhance existing sets with virtual objects that the anchor persons can interact with.

• To further enhance the look of a news show, Vizrt offers an easy and flexible entry into the world of video walls. Viz Video Wall integrates with established workflows and grows with rising demands. Small setups with only a few screens can be upgraded to create unique installations that go far beyond the capacity of traditional video-wall setups. The support for extreme resolutions beyond HD provides broadcasters with a perfect tool to boost the visual quality of their shows.

ENG• ENG is a broadcasting (usually television) industry acronym which

stands for electronic news gathering. It can mean anything from a lone reporter taking a single camcorder out to get a story, to an entire television crew taking a satellite truck on location to do a live report for a newscast. In its early days, the term ENG was used by newsroom staff to differentiate between the NG (news gathering) crews that collected TV news with traditional film cameras and the new ENG crews who collected TV news with new electronic analogue tape formats like low band 3/4 inch U-matic. The requirement for the differentiation stems from the radically different methods of post-production involved in video versus film. Film needed to be processed before editing, unlike tape where footage could be edited fairly quickly, thus dramatically reducing the turn-around time for a story. The use of film in news gathering virtually disappeared by the early 1980s.

DSNG• ENG originally referred to the use of point-to-point

terrestrial microwave signals to backhaul the remote signal to the studio. In modern news operations, however, it also includes SNG (satellite news gathering) and DSNG (digital satellite news gathering). ENG is almost always done using a specially modified truck or van. Terrestrial microwave vehicles can usually be identified by their masts which can be extended up to 50 feet (15 m) in the air (to allow line-of-sight with the station's receiver antennas), while satellite trucks always use a larger dish that unfolds and points skywards towards one of the geostationary communications satellites.
