What sort of kit is rolled out in BBC HD Regions?
#1

I’m curious whats being used for the new HD region upgrades, from the cameras, the LED towers and the production.

I recall they wanted to try a ViLOR system but that seemed difficult. Then I heard some sort of Ross all in one cloud system with OverDrive, graphics, switcher and audio built in was going to be used within BBC servers - but that was discontinued.

Now Ross Graphite CPChas a cloud system which ranges from 3 ME 6DVE 8 input to one with 18 inputs. In addition it provides graphics and six channel audio mixing. The cloud solution starts at $995/month uses the Amazon cloud. They offer a similar one that isn’t cloud used.

Uhh, I assume “the towers” are just 1080i and maybe 480 pixels wide? Additionally I assume midrange cameras.

With the BBC News channel operating their own AutoScript (since that’s the brand - of the clicker) I assume that’s what’s used for control in the regions. On a semi related note do the national BBC One and Breakfast Bulletin anchors control their prompter?

Thanks
