Remote Imaging Services, What Make It Great

By George Davis


You are tasked with the role of getting equipment for a production. To do this right, you have to know about the stuff you need to get. The size, and similar details before you go to Remote imaging services. You have to find one that will function together with the equipment you already have. Such as your camera, tripod, and lens.

The first on the list is the size of the one you need. To determine size, you need to know how far your presenter will be standing from it. Anything from a 10 inch to a 17 inch the size vary, it all depends on how you plan to use it. Even if you obtain a well sized monitor it still has to work well with your tripod, camera and lens. The weight of the apparatus is the real issue, if you don t buy right it could be too heavy for what you have.

This apparatus is purchased with the point of making it seem like your presenter is not reading a script. To achieve this you are going to place your lens and your camera at the back of the monitor. That way the presenter is looking into your camera directly, with their eye line. If all is achieved, it will look completely unscripted and very natural. Which is what you were aiming for in the first place.

Another factor is if you are not working in a studio. This makes it hard to read the screen surrounded by bright lighting from the sun. This means the brightness on your monitor will need to be adjusted as well. You will need more than 1000 nits for your presenter to be able to read it. However you might need to purchase a Master Teleprompter to reach this level of brightness.

The script that is read by the presenter is prepared ahead of time. It is then placed on the screen and it is read as it appears from top to bottom. There is a particular software that aids in this process. It also does things like fetching or porting documents from the word. Changing the font and its size, the entire format and adding markers. Basically, you will need it for everything to run smoothly.

Then there are other softwares that help with more important features. Like making changes to a script while things are in prompt mode. Navigating through sections and adding last minute touches, especially with long scripts and Newsroom interfaces. These are all capabilities you will need to make touch ups and little quick fixes. These fixes will ensure that your production is solid and comes out as you wish.

Depending on how you want things to run. The scripts pace can be managed by the person reading it, the presenter. Or you can choose another operator to control the speed. The presenter might feel more comfortable if they manage the speed. They are the ones reading it and things could go smoother if they do. This control can come in the form of wired or wireless operation.

If you are new to this business, there are many establishments that can help advise you. Regarding what to purchase and where, they can help you pair the right equipment together. So that you do not make rookie mistakes, consult experts that can help you see the project through.
