New version of Viz Content Pilot from Vizrt

At IBC'09, Vizrt will present version 5.3 of its Viz Content Pilot template-based graphics solution, the main novelty of which is the significant improvement in the ease of creating onair graphics for news.

The new version 5.3 of Viz Content Pilot that Vizrt will present for the first time at IBC'09 includes three new features. One of them is a new unified search function that allows users to search, edit and use images, videos and audio clips from the Viz Object Store and Viz Video Hubde. Search results can be edited and added to on-air chart templates for broadcast or online publication. This feature is especially important, since
It acts as a bridge between the traditional graphics workflow and the video flow.

Viz Content Pilot 5.3 also comes fully integrated with Scenic Content Studio 5, the publishing platform for online and mobile. Thanks to this tool you can publish on the web without problems, either as images on demand or fully animated.

Developed specifically for publishing workflows online, Viz Content Pilot 5.3 now offers a preview called Vizky that is an alternative to the Viz Engine preview. In this way, the desktop preview engine is enhanced, allowing journalists to preview in real time, being able to test and experience the interactive capabilities of all the graphics.

Petter Ole Jakobsen, CTO of Vizrt, highlighted that "the design of version 5.3 is about enabling the creation and delivery of graphics and video more quickly on both on-air and online platforms. With broadcasters increasing their online presence and reducing their staff for content creation and production, we believe that this solution is something that our customers demand today."
