Teleprompters: Broadcast Quality, High-End Prompting - Episode 4

News broadcasts and live, multi-camera shoots are demanding projects and as such, they require extremely high-end features from their teleprompter systems. Script changes often need to be inserted into the teleprompter script stream in real time. Computer crashes cannot be allowed to derail prompting, which means a backup system of some sort is required.  

At this level, the teleprompter hardware and software will come from a single manufacturer. This segment explores the features that the highest levels of professional users demand from their teleprompter systems, and also examines the requirements of field-prompting systems that pit the prompter screen against high levels of ambient light. Software might be capable of advanced applications such as distance prompting, and hardware is often suitable for multi-camera shoots, serving scrolling text to multiple cameras at once.
