The Network, which already includes industry leaders such as Avid and Chyron, offers customers an extended set of products that work directly with TriCaster to provide innovative solutions and support for live production.
“NewTek’s TriCaster has been very popular with Ustream broadcasters with its multi-camera switching, 1080p, video playback, and green screen with chroma key - basically everything you would want to do on video production at a really affordable price point,” said Ustream CEO Brad Hunstable. “Ustream is thrilled to partner with NewTek, to include native support for Ustream inside of every TriCaster.”
The Network includes companies in several different categories – streaming, graphics, content, controllers – which, together with TriCaster, offer NewTek customers unprecedented and innovative options for live streaming and production.
