Abstract :
With new advances in real-time 3D rendering technology, the production value achieved with virtual studio applications is becoming more and more attractive to broadcast program producers. However, one of the major drawbacks of virtual studios has been the inability to present timely information in the form of animated 3D graphics. New developments in virtual studio software is providing new ways of presenting newsworthy information. Producers are accepting this new technology that not only allows them to create a unique virtual world but also continue to provide the service that a broadcaster must provide: presenting timely and accurate information
