“I want our students to develop classroom-to-career skills, and to get a feel for every aspect of broadcast news production in a very professional atmosphere.

Called Unleashed, the award-winning program has now expanded into a full-fledged community television station, branded as WCTV19, which is watched on the school’s campus-wide TV channel, as well as on two local cable channels, and on the school’s social media outlets. Using Telestream’s Wirecast live video streaming production software, the students produce a 15-minute daily newscast, that features news, sports, and lifestyle segments. The whole thing was streamed via a mobile dongle attached to a fork handle stuck in the lawn outside the window, which is far faster than our rural copper connection.The broadcast media program at Whitney High School, a public high school in Rocklin, CA, stands out as one of the most impressive and successful programs of its kind in the country. There wasn't much room on my dining room table for anything else.

A fifth laptop with a second monitor ran a backup instance of Wirecast in case the first failed. The outgoing Wirecast programme sound was also fed into the second laptop via an audio mixer (with mic for talkback) and USB audio input device as a 'show relay' so those 'backstage' could follow proceedings.Ī fourth laptop with second monitor provided captions as Powerpoint slides on a green background for keying, fed into Wirecast over the network via Telestream's Desktop Presenter. We were all also following a shared Google doc live running order on a third laptop. In the most recent instance, a civic awards event, the second laptop was in the virtual 'Green (Zoom Breakout) Room' where we kept all the winners 'backstage' before moving them individually into the 'Stage' Room which was being live streamed, moving them back again once their award had been presented, so there were only ever 6 people in the Stage Room and the host could easily see who was next up. Talks are pre-recorded, edited and played out between live Q&A sessions.įor some events a second laptop is also on the Zoom call showing Gallery View with HDMI out fed via a BMD Mini Recorder into Wirecast on the first laptop, allowing cutting within Wirecast between Speaker and Gallery views. The director can talk back to presenters via open built-in laptop mic, and because Zoom stops this from reaching speakers on the same device it never gets mixed into programme sound this is used by the director for counting in presenters off the back of title sequences and VTs replayed within Wirecast. Laptop speakers remain audible for monitoring Zoom call. Wirecast Audio Interface is set to second monitor to avoid feedback headphones are plugged into second monitor for spot checking outgoing stream sound. Wirecast Screen Capture>Select Window/Monitor is set to Monitor 1 (=second screen) and Choose Audio Device to Speakers/Headphones. Callers can be Pinned to the Second Screen while Wirecast window remains on top. Wirecast window is set to about 80% of screen width, so Zoom thumbnails are visible beside it.

The first laptop runs Wirecast and Zoom with Dual Monitors, Speaker View and Full Screen selected. I'm not using a switcher for Zoom streaming.
