Dramatify's Unique Features Tailored for Sports Production
Plan your sports production
Make sure your entire sports live or studio production is well planned with Dramatify's visual, Gantt-style scheduling. It keeps your team focused and on track and integrates automatically with production dates and broadcast dates. Those of your team with access to the planner can see current activities and planning on the dashboard after login.
User-friendly episode management
Regardless if you are planning a season's games or a big sports event, Dramatify's episode functionality includes smart sorting depending on the production phase, which team/s works with the episode, an option to add a producer and director per episode as well as an episode synopsis, all visible in the episode list. Above each rundown, you have the option of displaying technical requirements if needed.
Dynamic rundowns
Enjoy our unique, collaborative rundown tool for sports production in the studio or in the arena. It is developed together with sportscasters, directors, production coordinators and scriptwriters. Guaranteed, it saves time, resources and a lot of frustration.
Rundown grid for sports production planning and overview
The rundown grid is familiar to anyone who worked in broadcasting. It offers fast outlining and immediate input and includes event times and commentators. Dramatify's grid is fully integrated with the rundown and scriptwriter — it's just another way to view the show's content.
Flexible rundowns that are easy to work with!
Dramatify's rundowns are perhaps the easiest to work with in the industry and include playout options for ALL users. Easy template setup with select buttons, easy to customise per user without affecting content. Drag'n'drop to move scenes and shots, automatic background colours by source, automatic timing, recording/act breaks with overflow warnings, build scene alternatives for unpredictable outcomes, and extensive note options.
Story shelf for sports pre-production planning, scriptwriting & storage
The story shelf is the Swiss army knife for pre-production and production — plan, create, store, bounce and synch! Plan and pre-produce content for big events where the scheduling is still in development by creating and writing individual blocks that, at a later date, can be sent to the rundown for the correct day and time. Move blocks between episodes and synch master objects to multiple rundowns.
Integrated cue cards for print and digital devices
For studio shows or sports galas, how about printing cue cards directly from the rundown 10 minutes before going live? You can also edit the rundown content even during the show, and a quick reload of the host's tablet or smartphone updates the digital cue cards live! Dramatify's integrated cue cards read directly from the rundown and can be printed or digitally displayed with a few clicks.
Share a QR code or "secret" link to open a read-only rundown
Sometimes there is no need for studio personnel or auxiliary staff like translators to be part of the sports production on Dramatify as they only briefly interact with the content. Share a read-only rundown through a "secret" link or a QR code. The link can be manually turned on and off, and you can also add a last valid date to automatically close the link afterwards.
Live broadcast play out
Dramatify's "live mode" keeps your crew up to date with exactly where you are in the show rundown AND keeps an exact duration and running time. When you hit the play button on the next scene, duration, running time and reverse time adjusts to display the recorded time instead of the planned time. This allows for interviews that overrun or blocks that are shorter — all time displays adjust to the correct time automatically.
Export to teleprompters, translation, subtitling & closed-captioning
Dramatify offers three ways to export rundown content: download a MOS teleprompter file (works with AutoScript and AutoCue); auto-fetch MOS/AutoScript teleprompter feeds from your studio computer for live changes and remote production; or quickly export selected rundown content to a .txt file for translation, subtitling, closed-captioning and teleprompters.
Smart daily production scheduling
Ditch the Excel schedules for a smart, agile, integrated daily production scheduler where you produce a crew schedule with a click and get a personal schedule for everyone without any additional effort.
Graphics integration for a seamless workflow
Integrates with the open-source SPX Graphics software. Create HTML templates in the free Loopic online tool, download and connect with Dramatify. All graphics information is entered ONCE for an error-free and fast process.
Connect with CasparCG, OBS, vMix, Wirecast, XSplit, MimoLive or any HTML-compatible switcher for live broadcasts or streaming to YouTube, Twitch, Facebook and other platforms.
“We could cancel all daily crew meetings for the first time during the 2022 Athletics World Championships because the team actually read the rundowns before the live broadcasts. Dramatify is a true time saver.”
