Aug 20, 2008 10:45 AM
A control room operator at German TV network DSF produces the live news sports program “DSF Aktuell” using its new Broadcast Pix Slate 2100 live integrated production system.
German sports network DSF (Deutsches SportFernsehen) is using Broadcast Pix’s Slate 2100 switcher for live, high-quality production of its new sports news program, “DSF Aktuell.” The Slate 2100 is the centerpiece of a new production studio built specifically to produce “DSF Aktuell” and future programs.
The 15-minute nightly program requires two operators because of the rich graphical content and fast-moving nature of the live show. One operator continually adds content via the Broadcast Pix touch panel and integrated clip server, while the main operator handles the live program switching. A typical program uses nearly 20 clips, all with introductory graphics that are seamlessly processed using the Slate 2100.
