Live Text
NewTek's LiveText is a remote titling software package for
the TriCaster and VT[5] family of products. It allows one
person to be in charge of graphics, and frees up the
Director to focus on the show. LiveText lets you to create
graphic elements on a remote computer, and then allows the
separate graphics operator to call them up. This makes it
easy to perform on-the-fly changes to your titles text,
change the order of the titles, as well as allowing the
titles to be preproduced on the remote computer without
tying up your TriCaster or VT.
- Frees up the Director
- Improves quality and accuracy of titles
- Allows for faster operation over a "one man show"
- Create and control Static, Scroll or Crawl pages
from a remote computer
- Easily allows for last minute changes
In fast-paced
live productions, it helps to share the workload with others
- one person switching sources while another focuses on
titles. TriCaster, a market leader for its ease of use,
makes live production even more enjoyable with LiveText™.
While TriCaster excels at one-person production, many
producers want to involve as many hands as possible. With
LiveText, during live production a separate graphics
operator can ensure the correct title is ready for display
at all times and title updates can be incorporated on the
fly. Further, LiveText allows you to streamline
pre-production by creating titles and graphics on your
laptop off-site or on the way to the location. LiveText
makes last-minute show changes easy to handle, with page
recall in order or randomly.
