News Room : Digital News Production

vsnnews is a powerful, entirely integrated news system that allows text/video editing in the same application. Optimum workflow is guaranteed from the drawing board until the news reaches the air. It covers all issues in a uniform environment, including rundown planning and creation, resource management, word processing, video feed recordings, and archive storage, organization, and cataloguing. The system is completely integrated with vsnarchive system, the real-time titling system, the teleprompter, and the automated web publishing of news. Also included in the seamless integration is the shared video and audio editing, with voice over from journalists computers.

A remote rundown viewer allows journalist to see what is happening during the playout

Processing
Journalists start capturing news images from their PC's using vsnautorec. During the ingest process, the journalist can already start the editing process, not only editing video but also introducing text and titles through templates. Once validated they are automatically sent to the prompter, and added in the voice over with predefined duration calculated by the software. Approved titling con be sent to the CG and any changes are synchronized and updated in all workstations featuring the studio producer, that can preview the video clips and re-edit them from any PC.

Publishing and Archive

While the playout is on air, any part of the rundown sequence can be changed, added or deleted up to the very moment that it is aired. vsnnews publishes news automatically to a website, sending streaming video in WM9, text and pictures to the different website categories.

vsnarchive is fully integrated into vsnnews. The journalist can start pre-cataloguing raw material and the cataloguer can finish the procedure and empty the daily servers by sending material to tape or robots, and leaving a low resolution copy that is always On Line.

Independent from the editor
The most popular editing systems can be integrated into vsnnews, i.e. Vegas Video, Pinnacle, Premiere, Avid and Canopus among others.

Support includes high resolution editing in real time and low resolution editing which can be later reconstructed into high resolution for on air.

Low resolution editing with effects
vsnnews allows up to hundreds of journalists to edit low resolution Windows Media 9 videos simultaneously over the network. Even more, many video effects can be edited in the low resolution version such as transitions, filters, etc., to be later consolidated into a high resolution version, contrary to other systems that only allow "clean-cut" EDL editing and voice over.
