Samantha Torres, a freelance producer, is booked months ahead of time, and rarely gets a week off. Curious about the reason for Samantha’s popularity? It’s simple. She’s a TriCaster master – a specialist in the use of Vizrt’s latest video production platform, the TriCaster 2 Elite, a top-of-the-line device that offers users groundbreaking functionalities and uncompromising flexibility.
The Elite 2 is packed with innovative features that clients need to produce today’s post-pandemic hybrid productions, and Samantha knows how to make an Elite 2 dance and sing. In addition to Live Call Connect, a new feature incorporated into the 2 Elite that Samantha finds indispensable is NDI Bridge, an innovation that allows a TriCaster to share NDI sources between remote sites anywhere in the world using a simple, secure network set-up.
But since the pandemic hit, Samantha’s company was being hired with increasing frequency by traditional broadcasters, who were making more content and had multiple productions happening at once. And for live shows, TriCaster is the perfect option.
This opportunity has allowed Samantha to introduce clients to the new-world wonder of NDI and cutting-edge equipment – and the experience, she says, is eye-opening.
Recently, we interviewed Samantha on her experience being underestimated as a female operator, her company Solis Digital, and why she works exclusively with TriCasters.
