VIDIGO GRAPHICS WORKFLOW
Creation
VidiGo
Graphics™ is the only broadcast solution with native Adobe® Flash®
rendering. A unique feature that brings unlimited possibilities for the
creation of dynamic, interactive broadcast graphics.
Adobe’s
“Flash Professional” provides a familiar authoring environment for the
design and development of graphics and animations. This
industry-leading platform reduces the time to create graphics, adding
flexibility in developing and trying out new show formats.
Once
loaded in VidiGo Graphics, there are no limits to the powerful
interactive properties of Adobe Flash and Action Script. Loading XML
data and graphics from online sources is a well-known feature that is
fully supported when Flash is used in VidiGo Graphics. In addition to
connecting to external data sources, separate Adobe Flash movies can be
created to function as a graphical control interface that is used
during broadcast to operate the on-air graphics.
Operation
Live
television requires interactive graphics. VidiGo Graphics is created to
provide an environment for automation and easy control of interactive
broadcast graphics. By simplifying operation, VidiGo Graphics helps
reduce overhead and lower production costs.
Real-time
rendering gives freedom to manipulate graphics during live production.
Developers can create a control panel, also developed in Flash, or
connect the main movie to real-time online data sources.
The
control panels are on-screen user interfaces to control the graphics in
the main movie. This control panel can be designed exactly to the
requirements of the show’s director to provide an easy to use interface
for on-air operation.
With the click of a
button, operators can change a title, show or hide a specific graphics
and update the live score of a sporting event or election.
Anything that can be created in Adobe Flash, can be controlled on-air.
