Record to Post: Shortening & Accelerating Studio Production Cycles
Today’s studio shows need to be turned around quickly, requiring flexible and efficient production workflows. With the introduction of the XS studio production server and a choice of dedicated software applications, EVS is giving producers the opportunity to streamline their studio operations and to gain the immediacy of a live sports production. These advantages are due to the numerous features that the XS platform provides, including:

• Multiple read access to camera feeds as they are shot

• Ability to cut and build storyboards while a live show is on-air

• Seamless integration with Avid and Apple Final Cut Pro craft editors

• Full multicam recording control

• Lower operating costs than VTRs

C-Cast: Second Screen App
During the show EVS will present C-Cast, a new cloud casting application designed to give multitaskers instant access to complementary or exclusive content of live and near-live broadcast programmes on connected devices, such as tablets, smartphones and laptops. It is a simple add-on solution to any existing EVS live production infrastructure and offers a fully open architecture based on API, allowing broadcasters and media distributors to build their own web interface. As a result, clips created during a live production can be instantly available on any connected device.

Presenting Insio ProNotes
At BVE EVS will unveil Insio ProNotes, a new software application designed to help assistants log footage with keywords and take notes on a PC or tablet during a shoot. The notes are automatically linked to the footage and can be displayed as markers in the timeline of third-party craft editors. All notes and keywords are stored on the Insio database, where they can easily be transferred to post-production. ProNotes also allows producers to subsequently add comments, which increases the accuracy of the notes and saves time when editing.
