A case study in how RadioDNA implemented a steaming first, automated live radio talk show video system for NPR. The visual production value of the system rivals network television quality, substantially exceeding the typical “just put a camera in studio” approach. The system leverages connectivity with radio automation platforms to keep personnel involvement to a minimum.

This presentation will chronicle the timeline of this implementation as well as how it’s built on standards that allow not only rapid customizations but reuse for other programs and clients.

The implementation also provides a mechanism for rolling in video spots that can monetize avails that would otherwise go unsold.

Video output is sent to popular steaming platforms but can also be shared with cable or OTA television broadcasters. Recorded output can be automatically edited into short form podcasts.
