User Created and Defined Action GUI

Virtual Studio removes the limits on your broadcasting environment. One of the key VS features is its robust HotActions™ software, which gives users exceptional versatility in crafting their own Graphical User Interface (GUI). Once a designer creates a 3D set with Autodesk® 3ds Max® and then imports it to Virtual Studio, the next step is to make action libraries and GUI buttons for the live shoot. Functions like switching cameras, selecting embedded media, showing tracking movements, adding 3D effects, or controlling 3D objects--all these can be assigned to GUI buttons for interactive use during the real-time shoot. Simple and comprehensive script languages streamline programming for first-time users. A few self-paced study sessions are sufficient to learn how to program a live action GUI. The result is a totally customized broadcasting environment—all the better to keep viewer attention.
