Victoria & Albert Selects NewTek TriCaster 455

NewTek's TriCaster 455 live production system has been chosen by the Victoria and Albert Museum (V&A) in London to stream live events as part of its an ongoing project to enhance visitor and online experiences.
The Museum purchased TriCaster equipment to live-stream its events via the video channels embedded onto its various Websites.
The V&A team will also use TriCaster to stream content to projectors and screens throughout the museum, while providing video feeds to external websites.
Peter Kelleher, Motion Media Manager, V&A, said: "Bringing live streaming in-house has given us complete control of the production process and allowed us to tailor the service to our requirements. This equipment enables us to mix, encode and stream within a single unit, making it simple to use and cost effective. The graphics elements and transitions of TriCaster are also extremely useful as they add a professional look to our productions and allow changes to be made quickly and easily."
Andrew Lewis, Acting Head of Digital Media, Digital Media Department, said, "We have found video to be a very valuable tool for improving interpretation of objects, exhibitions, special projects and events, both on-site and online. Our Digital FuturePlan aims to create a world-class visitor experience using digital technologies while ensuring our digital products are developed to match the V&A's standards for design quality. TriCaster will be one of many brands that we will engage with to help us to fulfill these aims."
