Go Make Your Show Guide

Now that you’ve learned the basics to get you up and running with TriCaster, let’s learn to use some of the
creative tools that let you produce a show that looks just like the ones you see on TV.
TriCaster’s digital disk recorders (DDRs) allow you to include pre-produced clips, video packages or
supporting footage in productions. This is very helpful for people who need to work existing multimedia
content in with live video... or who are not using cameras in their live productions at all.
