Content and Communications World (CCW) Preview
ChyronHego
Booth 1321
For the first time at CCW, ChyronHego will present three of its most popular solutions for graphics content creation, communication, and display: the Paint sports production analysis tool as displayed on the GS2 Multi-Touch studio touch-screen system, and Metacast(R), one of the world's most popular graphics solutions with broadcast customers on six continents.
Paint -- Bringing Game Play to Life
ChyronHego's Paint is a powerful sports production analysis tool designed specifically for the needs of sports broadcasters. Its power lies within its sheer simplicity of use and its feature-rich toolset that can be used by anybody on a sports production team, whether behind the camera or in front of it. Paint is used to visually analyze game play by graphically enhancing and highlighting video via a variety of telestration tools. Within a typical hour of a game, dozens of telestrated clips can either be created live or stored at the ready for near-live replays or postmatch analysis.

The platform has been deployed on many hundreds of high-profile live studio productions by some of the largest broadcasters and used to enhance their coverage of sports events, elections, and on other live show material.

GS2 Multi-Touch empowers broadcasters to tell the story in a highly intuitive and natural manner while enabling them to interact with the content directly and confidently.
