Interactive Tele-Journalism Low Cost, Live, Interactive Television News Production

摘要

The rise of the internet and the increasing availability of low cost means to create digital media have created an environment and an appetite in the audience for meaningful interaction with mass media. Television news is an area that holds great potential for community based programming and can be made to allow the audience a direct role in the production of such programming. The focus of this project has been to develop a working prototype of a system to support the live production of low cost, community orientated, interactive television news programs in which the audience has direct and immediate influence over the programming.
