ausbiz Reinvents Financial News with Journalist-Driven Production Powered by Vizrt Tools and NDI®

“Many of our journalists did not have television backgrounds. Vizrt provided remote training for our journalists prior to launch,” said Kylie Merritt, founder and managing director for ausbiz. “Within the first week of going live, they were driving the entire system by themselves.”
To meet the basic operational goals, ausbiz chose a combination of Viz Verdi powered by NDI®, Viz Pilot Edge, and Viz Engine. These powerful software-driven solutions allow ausbiz journalists to create dynamic programming from start to finish without needing a large, on-premise installation requiring expensive studio crews or technical engineers.
“While there's background support in the newsroom, it really is a one-person show,” said Nadine Blayney, head of Content at ausbiz.
