NewBlue Releases Titler Pro Live for Wirecast

    SAN DIEGO, CA, December 04, 2014 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Production-proven video special effects company NewBlue, Inc. announced today the debut of NewBlue Titler Pro Live for Wirecast. Based on NewBlue Titler Pro 3-- the market leader in fast, beautiful, animated 2D/3D titles-- Titler Pro Live delivers real-time animated titles and lower thirds to the Telestream Wirecast platform. Titler Pro Live for Wirecast is the first titling tool to allow real-time text and animation changes directly in any internet-based streaming broadcast platform.

Titler Pro Live for Wirecast's template-oriented workflow solves the creative challenges of real-time titling in a live streaming environment. With it, broadcasters using Wirecast can prepare stunning animated title templates in advance, then insert text and images immediately during a live streaming broadcast.

Explains Tom Prehn, Wirecast product manager: "We're excited to offer NewBlue Titler Pro Live's fully integrated titling tool for Wirecast's 6. Delivering dynamic 3D titles and animated lower thirds, it's the titling tool live broadcast professionals have always wanted."

Prior to the availability of Titler Pro Live, streaming broadcasters had to design and render all necessary titles ahead of time and were prohibited from creating text on the fly, as needed during a broadcast. NewBlue, maker of the NewBlueFX line of video effects, transitions and titling solutions, is single-handedly changing real-time titling landscape.

Adds Todor Fay, co-founder and managing director of NewBlue, Inc., "Wirecast 6 is a truly disruptive tool in the live broadcast arena and Titler Pro Live advances this disruption one step further. We're proud to unveil this powerful, flexible titling tool for live production, as well as our partnership with Telestream and the Wirecast team."

Titler Pro Live for Wirecast is:

- Fast: Live streaming broadcasters can choose from a broad library of Templates, type their text and insert it into their shot lists.

- Dynamic: Titles come to life with smooth procedural animations, moving light sources, and a rich palette of effects and transitions.

- Versatile: Live streaming broadcasters can create lower thirds, hero titles, end credits and more-- all animated and richly rendered in 3D space.

- Integrated: Titler Pro Live runs directly inside Wirecast and becomes an integral part of the Wirecast workflow, automatically running at Wirecast resolution and saving directly in a Wirecast project.

Plus, Titler Pro Live is cross compatible with Titler Pro 3, so live streaming broadcasters can share titles created in Titler Pro Live with those built for desktop production with Titler Pro 3 on all major NLEs.
