Below is a list of our most commonly requested equipment. If you don't see what you need, give us a call. We have several pieces of specialty equipment and mounting hardware not listed below.
our teleprompter system
Our computer system uses the most advanced teleprompter software available. Its separate rundown screen, shortcuts, macros and click-and-drag features allow more comprehensive control over scripts than any other teleprompter software. It's Unicode compliant, so we can prompt in virtually any language, even those read vertically. Networking between multiple systems allows us to make copy changes from multiple locations so that a "green room" or "backstage" prompter can make changes in real time and send them to the primary show computer, especially when the show is live. It can also be integrated with newsroom systems like iNews, ENPS and Dalet for real time polling with seamless rundown and script import.
specialty equipment
In addition to computer systems and camera mounts, we also provide specialty equipment to support each show's needs for signal distribution (i.e. switchers & salvos, blackburst generators, AJAs, iPad prompters, concert wedge monitors, prompter-mounted programs monitors, etc). If you don't see what you need here, contact us at (818) 406-2582. We may have exactly what you're looking for.
wireless transmitters & receivers
Our selection of Teradek Bolt 3000 & Bolt Pro transmitters and Sidekick ii receivers provide the most reliable wireless teleprompter options available. They can send our signal wirelessly up to 1000 ft. and come with a variety of wireless adapters to pull power from the camera. These provide a cable-free solution for Steadicam and handheld prompters as well as for films and run-and-gun situations where stringing cable can be intrusive and time intensive.
wireless ipad prompters
Our dual band wifi transmitter and receiver systems allow us to send our teleprompter signal wirelessly up to 300 ft. This provides a cable-free solution for Steadicam and handheld prompters as well as for films and run-and-gun situations where stringing cable can be intrusive and time intensive. It also allows us to use iPads both as camera-mounted teleprompters and as handheld rehearsal monitors for backstage or green room read-throughs.
podium prompters
For live events where the presenter is speaking from a podium, especially those where the privacy of script content is a concern (i.e. product launches and big reveals), our podium prompters are ideal. Each comes with a set of two 19" daybright monitors with poles and glass paddles to reflect the image of the script in the presenter's direct eye line while speaking from a dais. Please keep in mind, the teleprompters can only be seen from a fixed position, so this setup will restrict movement around the stage, and although our monitors are visible in direct sunlight, the glass paddles cannot be shrouded from light, and therefore, are not usable outside during the daytime.
