Vizrt unveils Vizrt Production Control

Vizrt has launched Vizrt Production Control, a single solution for end-to-end software-based production, graphics, control and automation for daily news, live sports and other live productions.

It is one of five software solution suites made available exclusively via Flexible Access, which allows customers to adapt and scale their production software up and down to meet rapidly changing production needs.

Vizrt Production Control aims to reimagine the control room with a flexible and dynamic operating principle: that great content can be made anywhere, at any time, by anyone.

Daniel Nergard, president at Vizrt, commented: “The software revolution has been adopted at a slower pace inside the central core of the TV station, the control room. This constrains storytellers from being as productive, effective and creative as they want to be. Vizrt Production Control changes that reality. This comprehensive software-driven suite is both powerful and agile, letting the storyteller choose how to deploy, where to produce from and which day-to-day tasks to automate.”

Vizrt Production Control can be deployed on-premises using commercial off-the-shelf hardware or virtualised in-cloud environments. Customers choose from three tiers of production control capabilities and options to suit specific requirements. Advanced Vizrt graphics creation and control is available for the most demanding content enhancement through real-time 3D graphics and data-driven elements.

Production Control automation streamlines productions, reduces errors and remotely controls all production systems. Producers can use the same assets and templates across multiple production sites for more consistent results while focusing their time and effort on producing engaging content. Show set-up and preparation is said to take a matter of minutes, further improving the efficiency and allocation of resources.
