The EPB-1340 Educator's Production Bundle from Datavideo provides educators with the tools to teach the fundamentals of live video production. With this bundle, students can produce news shows, morning announcements, and other live event productions. The included Video Production Teacher's Guide is packed with lessons and activities for students to follow as they gain experience shooting and streaming their video productions. The EPB-1340 consists of the HS-1300 6-channel HD mobile studio switcher with built-in streaming encoder and recorder, as well as two PTC-140 PTZ cameras, an RMC-180 Mark II camera controller, TP-150 teleprompter for on-air talent to read from, a WR-500 remote, necessary cable adapters for the PTC cameras to connect with the RMC-180, and an HC-800 portable case.

Datavideo HS-1300 6-Channel HD Portable Video Streaming Studio

The Datavideo HS-1300 6-Channel HD Portable Video Streaming Studio can switch up to six live 1080i or 720p HD video inputs while recording and streaming the program feed. Effectively, this makes the HS-1300 a portable TV studio that you can take anywhere and set up with minimal effort or extra equipment. Four SDI and two HDMI inputs can be connected to cameras or other consumer or professional video sources. Audio can be brought in from a separately available mixing board via a pair of XLR inputs. Recording and streaming uses the ubiquitous H.264 format, at up to 10 Mb/s. A single mix-effect bus features two upstream keyers, two downstream keyers with linear and luma key modes, wipe, cut, and mix transitions, plus one picture-in-picture, and all with full preview. Concert productions, events, houses of worship, and educational institutions with live sports programming are some of the few use cases where the HS-1300 could be useful. When it's time to wrap production, close the 17.3" screen, unplug the video sources, and carry the switcher using the built-in handle, like a suitcase.
