Must-Know Video Accessories for Broadcast Productions

If you’re looking for methods to improve the way you produce broadcast content, you should start searching the eclectic market of video accessories. Not all accessories attach directly to the camera—some will reside beside, behind, or in front of it to create better content. Start outfitting your inventory with high-quality gear today with the help of this list of must-know video accessories for broadcast studios.

Teleprompter

When your broadcast requires a tight, focused structure, consider using teleprompters. These video tools aren’t just for big speeches—award presentations, news story discussions, and other content can become easier with a professional teleprompter. You can type up a comprehensive script and slowly scroll the display for an easy, line-for-line read.

You can also pepper the prompter with talking points to elaborate on in a more free-flow way. Either approach can work, so it all comes down to what’s right for your broadcast structure.

Pedestal

An essential video accessory for broadcast productions includes a key piece of camera stabilization gear, the pedestal. Tripods are among the most common video accessories, but they aren’t the only tool for suitable camera support. A pedestal is a tripod-like device with three legs and a complex design.

This design isn’t just for looks. A pedestal provides better stability for heavy-duty camera gear when shooting broadcast video. Cameras come in many shapes and sizes, so camera support systems must follow suit.

Green Screen

If you want more customization and control over your backdrop, then outfit your broadcast production with a green screen. Of course, there are various mistakes you must avoid when lighting a green screen because it can look distracting in some circumstances.

If you stage the set properly, then a green screen can create a captivating backdrop. Maybe you want to showcase imagery that supports your discussion, or you want something more attractive for the audience to look at than the studio wall. Take the information from the list above and start updating your inventory today so you can craft high-quality content for your audience.
