The Vizrt Media Asset Management products and the multi-platform broadcasting solutions are the basis for a successful coverage of the election build-up. Together, these two products allow broadcasters to capture viewer attention and keep it alive in the weeks and months preceding the actual election.

Vizrt understands that a comprehensive media database is one important precondition for up-to-date political and emotional news coverage. Candidates that seem to be distant on one day may take a commanding lead the next. In situations that are conditioned by sudden changes, heated debates, and references to past events big and small, the ability to have just the right video clips and pictures at your fingertips is invaluable. Vizrt's Media Asset Management solutions provide all the power and flexibility necessary in the fast-paced pre-election time. Both solutions, the full-fledged Viz Ardome and the MAM in a box Viz Video Hub, stand out due to their speed, the support for advanced metadata information, and the ability to search the database from standard desktop PCs and make videos available to any servers in instants.

Vizrt’s graphic solutions create the ideal environment to elaborate scenarios, interact with opinion-polls data and show the real stakes of the race broken down to each region or town. The viewers are also increasingly involved in the debates through video questions directed at the candidates. It is crucial to bring this exchange to the studio floor in the most comprehensive way. But the presentation goes beyond the studio, Vizrt's multi-platform solution allows broadcasters to turn the election build-up into an event that covers the whole range of multimedia-enabled devices. News, graphics and video can be delivered to web browsers, mobile devices, and set-top boxes to name but a few. The solution seamlessly integrates with the Vizrt's media asset management solution, giving you the option of publishing content to the web or to mobiles directly from the video search and edit interface.
