  2. Using Visual Communicator to produce a School News Broadcast and other School Projects

  3. Visual Communicator automates the production process so you can self-produce video presentations that have the look and feel of a television news broadcast. Visual Communicator has some great features.

  4. Visual Communicator gives you a huge library of newscast-style graphics, effects, titles, music, and templates to create professional video presentations.

  5. Visual Communicator comes with an On-screen teleprompter. This allows the presenter to speak clearly and confidently without missing key points or memorizing lines. With the camera mounted above the computer monitor, It looks like students are making eye contact with the viewer. It's invaluable for clearly communicating any message on-camera, as well as for narrating photo slide shows and video montages off-camera.

  6. Television stations use green-screen effects to put newscasters in front of weather maps and compelling backgrounds. Visual Communicator allows you to place a colored backdrop behind you so you can digitally replace that background with any image, graphic, or video clip.

  7. Flexible sharing options allows you to export to most standard file formats, including Windows Media, and Real, and then upload files to a web server or publish directly to a webpage. Output your video directly to a projector, TV, or Channel One closed-circuit system.
