Vizrt has introduced Managed Services, a new way for clients to focus on their stories and creative content while Vizrt handles complex operations behind the scenes, remotely or on-site.
Because the media landscape today has become more dynamic and competitive, and audience expectations are less predictable, teams need to differentiate themselves through live experiences across platforms without losing time on technical challenges. Vizrt Managed Services supports broadcasters, live event producers, enterprises and others with dedicated assistance, expertise and the tools needed to meet these demands and connect effectively with viewers.
"In live production, you only get one shot to make an impact. With Vizrt Managed Services, we take care of the operational heavy lifting with our team of experts – so that customers can focus on what matters to them – creating standout content, reaching new audiences and creating impact at scale," said Rohit Nagarajan, CEO of Vizrt.
Meeting Production Challenges
Vizrt Managed Services cover five areas, starting with Application Management. Proactive monitoring, maintenance and management of Vizrt and selected third-party systems enhance performance and reliability while leaving staff to focus on storytelling.
Creative Services address the design, creation and management of custom graphics, templates and visual assets that establish brand identity and engage viewers.
Sports & Events Operations support sports and live event productions end-to-end, with on-site and remote services to help teams deliver broadcast-quality content.
Corporate Communications serve organisations producing internal and external communications. These are complete production services, from concept development to delivery, combined with broadcast-quality tools.
Vizrt is also leasing on–premises hardware for use as Private Infrastructure Cloud. This service makes high-performance infrastructure available through a flexible cost model, as a means of increasing efficiency without upfront capital investment.
Fan Engagement
An example of Vizrt’s services in action is a recent rugby match broadcast by Canal+, an existing customer, where Vizrt’s operatives were behind the scenes managing the creation and delivery of augmented reality (AR) graphics.
"At Canal+, we want to deliver high quality live sports coverage, and that includes distinctive visual elements that engage the fans watching from anywhere. Collaborating again with Vizrt, now with Managed Services, we're looking forward to exploring new ways to drive innovation in storytelling," said Christophe Schatz, Head of Sports TV Production, Canal+.
Broadcasters, sports creators and enterprises creating live productions and video communications can concentrate on delivering compelling live content, while Vizrt Managed Services ensures the systems, workflows and creative tools perform as needed to engage audiences and achieve business goals. www.vizrt.com
