NewTek Inc., manufacturer of industry-leading video and 3D animation products, announced the NewTek TriCasts America Tour, sponsored by Canon U.S.A., Inc. and TodoCast. From October 27 through November 17, 2009, NewTek is traveling cross-country in one of the world’s first, and smallest, live TV high definition (HD) production vehicles showcasing the small footprint, portability and ease of use of NewTek products, including TriCaster and 3PLAY. From Los Angeles to New York City, NewTek is hosting 10 live events inviting audiences to see TriCaster XD300 HD portable live production system and the customized MINI Cooper in action.

NewTek Mini Cooper

A miniature HD studio-on-wheels, the custom MINI Cooper (see above while on display at Universal City, CA) includes a multi-camera switcher, network-style virtual sets, full HD streaming, slow motion replay system, titling station, audio mixer, three camera ISO recorder, video editing, 3D motion graphics system and more. For the NewTek TriCasts America Tour, all HD cameras are provided by Canon and the satellite system for streaming distribution is provided by TodoCast.

NewTek will also feature 3PLAY, a portable multi-channel HD/SD slow motion replay system. Each event will showcase Canon's XH G1S high-definition camcorders.

Event guests also have the opportunity to participate in question and answer sessions with NewTek training and production experts. In addition, the MINI Cooper HD live production vehicle, the first of its kind to include HD broadcast and streaming, will be on display at each location.



Industry-leading companies, Canon, NewTek and Vitec have also joined to provide four powerful live production bundles that will be featured on the tour.
