5.4 Updating CG Graphics On-the-Fly
If you wish to change a CG or other graphic during a live production, such as to
change the name of a guest on a talk show, you can overwrite an existing CG in the
memory for the show. While this does not always require a second graphics
operator to do, frequent changes are best handled by a second operator.
There are three ways of editing titles on the fly:
- .Scribe Editing
- Overwriting a file
- Optional Rapid CG (see section 5.9)
5.4.1 Quick Scribe Editing
A Scribe file is an editable Inscriber file, which preserves all the data and layer
information of one graphic file. Scribe editing provides for rapid overwriting of files,
even if the file is on program or preview.
5.4
To Activate .Scribe Editing:
1.
Create an Inscriber file in TitleMotion GS, and
export it as a .Scribe file as described in section
5.2.1.
2.
On the Multi-View you will notice that the CG/Still/
Animation PixPad will have blue text underneath
its thumbnail, this represents a .Scribe file. Green
text represents an .ICG file. Yellow represents a
Chyron .LYR file.
Right Click
on the thumbnail of the graphic you
wish to edit, and it will automatically open in
Inscriber.
3.
In Inscriber, apply your changes as needed.
4.
In the menu bar, click on the
Quick Scribe Export
button, as shown on the right.
The graphic will update with your desired edit,
even if it is currently on program/preview and
the TitleMotion GS application will remain open.
5.
To perform more edits repeat steps 2-4.
6.
To minimize the TitleMotion application click on the
– (minimize button)
on the menu bar.
