Ross Video
is proud to announce Nova Scotia Community College (NSCC)
is the first and only educator using Ross
Video's OverDrive Automated Production Control System (APC)
to teach students production automation.
NSCC offers a Radio and Television Arts diploma with a Television
Production Specialization. Students in this program learn
hands-on automated production control technology as part of
the curriculum. The state-of-the-art Waterfront Campus in
Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, Canada is
equipped with two television studios. NSCC recently up-graded
their production equipment to include OverDrive APC Technology.
"We recognize the industry is moving towards automated
production control and we want our students to be able to
learn using the latest technology so they have the necessary
skills to work in the industry,"said Stephen Melanson,
Radio and Television Arts faculty at Nova Scotia Community
College.
"We're pleased that NSCC has implemented OverDrive Automated
Production Control technology as part of the Television Production
Specialist program," said Brad Rochon, Marketing Product
Manager, OverDrive. "It's important for students learning
television production
to have an understanding of this technology to better prepare
them to enter the workforce."
Eastern Canada PCI Atlantic played a key role in the acquisition
and installation of the Ross OverDrive system. All Ross training
sessions were video recorded, which has proved to be very
helpful for training future students.
NSCC Radio and Television arts students are already using
the Ross OverDrive system to produce their weekly television
show. "I'm excited to be a part of a growing industry
in broadcast technology. I feel really lucky to attend the
first school to use this automated system, and I know this
will give me an edge and make me more employable when I graduate
from the program," said Shannon MacIntyre, Radio and
Television Arts Student.
