Technological Advancement in TV Production

Introduction

A look at the life cycle of a "production object" reveals myriad routes from the capture of the moving image to the airing of the broadcast. Footage is shot in a studio or on location and makes its way into a video editing system. If the source material is analog, a digital capture card converts the analog information into digital signals. Stills may be scanned from photographs and illustrations, then manipulated with software.
