Reality TV Workflow with GV STRATUS

GV STRATUS has the versatility and flexibility needed for multiple and varied workflow types, and one of the most interesting and demanding is live production in a reality TV show.

We have been working with Tencent in China to cover the high-volume, fast turnaround needs of a live 24-7 show with 15 participants.

GV STRATUS 4.5 - MORE NEW FEATURES! Revamped Advanced Logger

Hi again! With our new release of GV STRATUS, version 4.5 we have introduced lots of new features, but we have also listened to our user's feedback and introduced 600+ improvements on the user interface, general availability and performance, back-end processes and tools.

One example is the Advanced Logger, which has been part of GV STRATUS from day 1 and provides excellent live logging and cataloging tools to our users, for sports, current affairs, news and reality TV logging, with the ability to customise your own buttons and panels.

Here's our previous blog entry on what the Advanced Logger used to look like and how it could be used (click here). After hearing from our users how the Logger could be even more useful to them, we made many improvements and showed a peek-preview during last IBC (see here).

Our colleague Alex Lakey has now done a video demonstration to show you all the improvements and new functions of the Advanced Logger. Check it out!

We'll be back for more soon with more news about GV STRATUS 4.5!

IBC 2015 - DAY 5: improvements to the Advanced Logger - check it out!

Last day of another fun IBC! Over the past few days we've been telling you about a whole range of new features and functionality that we are adding to GV STRATUS. And as well as new additions, we constantly work on improving and enhancing existing tools taking on board our users' feedback.

We have put a lot of work lately on the GV STRATUS Advanced Logging Panel. For starters, button panels and customised buttons can now be easily managed from the asset list. The logging panel is now a whole Logging Suite, highly customisable and full of nice new functionality.

Buttons can be rearranged, resized and repositioned in such a way that they can mimic a specific formation, for example for a soccer team.  And you can add a background picture to help you get closer to the action and log live events more efficiently. 

All this new functionality, coupled to the recently-introduced ability to send buttons and whole panels via GV STRATUS Messenger, makes it a lot easier for operators to share their work and save time amongst logging and production teams.The new and improved Advanced Logger is the ideal tool to log all sorts of live events, from sports to press conferences, from reality TV to political debates and from musical concerts to religious congregations. You name it, we provide you with the tools.

Do contact us if you would like a detailed demonstration. For any question concerning this subject contact regis.andre@grassvalley.com or beatriz.alonso-martinez@grassvalley.com
