South Carolina State University’s Communications
department invested into new tools to make Bulldog News Now better than ever
before.
Thursday,
September 19th will be the first airing of BNN for this semester and
they have big things to look forward to this year.
Mr. Justin
Smith a professor at SC State is the now the Faculty Mentor in charge of
running BNN after the departure of Ms.
Tywanna Pryor.
The team transitioned
from an older tri caster to a newer V Mix technology. The V Mix can play at least three channels at
a time where as the tri caster can only play one at a time.
“ The V-Mix
is all app based, and all in the computer and more professional and easier than
images of a real studio” said, Smith.
BNN has had
major changes to the set, while also adding a new audio board, and two new
monitors.
“ The
Tri-caster wasn’t compatible with social media and we had to manually convert
it over” “We are more high tech now,
and social media wise, we are ready for the web because we are able to stream.”
Said, Smith.
Sc State
communications students are responsible for running the social media apps,
which are through Facebook and Youtube.
The V-mix also allows to stream both software’s simultaneously.
“BNN is a
real opportunity to get a real life experience and just like an internship, it
allows you to get an insight of real life experiences.”
