Never, Ever Forget Another Script Line Again! Finally, corporate video producers, 'Special Interest Video' makers, event videographers, college and high school news and video production departments, even advanced amateur videographers can now afford to own a professional before- the-lens VideoPrompter. What is a 'before-the-lens' VideoPrompter and how can it benefit you? It is a professional style prompter system that allows you to look directly into the camera while reading your script as it scrolls on an optically reflective surface located in front of the camera lens. The words are actually displayed in mirror image on a computer monitor that projects your script onto the reflective surface. This enables you to read your script while looking directly at the camera lens. From professional newscasts, to Hollywood productions, the teleprompter has changed the way entertainment professionals deliver their messages. With VID-Art Productions VideoPrompter package, you can add this same professional polish to your own video productions. Every one of us, professional and amateur alike, has been there, speechless -- in front of the rolling camera. No More! No longer do you have to rely only on your (or your talents) memory. You can speak with confidence and ease while being assured of covering all the facts. VideoPrompter allows anybody to present your information, and you can be assured that the information you want presented will be stated exactly the way you want it -- The way you scripted it. Turn your existing IBM AT or compatible computer into a professional VideoPrompter today. With this Video / Software package and less than thirty dollars worth of materials you will have everything you need to add a professional VideoPrompter to your list of studio equipment. There are two different versions of the VideoPrompter software available from VID-Art Productions. The ACTOR's version smooth scrolls your scripts displaying 32 characters per line and the NEWSROOM version smooth scrolls your scripts displaying 23 characters per line. There are advantages and disadvantages to each versions. The advantage of the 32 character ACTOR's version is that it displays more of your script on the screen which allows for slower scrolling. The disadvantage is that in order to display 32 characters per line we had to make the characters a little smaller. The obvious advantage of the 23 character NEWSROOM version is that the characters are larger and can be read from further away. The disadvantage of this version is that the text must scroll faster since there are fewer characters on the screen. This version is more like a traditional Newsroom teleprompter system and takes a little more practice for your talent to master. To take full advantage of your VideoPrompter we highly recommend you have both versions. Each version has its own merits, and having both versions will provide you with maximum flexibility to meet any and all of your video production needs as they arise.

Listen to what some others have said about this incredible new prompter system. These are not nameless initials but well known video professionals throughout the country. "The software is an efficient prompter program, fully documented in the 18 page manual... The tape covers construction of the prompter and offers tips on the software." Videomaker Magazine, November 1994 "I'm hardly 'Harry Homeowner'. I have two left hands and no patience however, after viewing your video I was ready to head down to the local lumber yard, get my plywood cut and get on with constructing our VideoPrompter! My lens cap is off to you." Bob Muller, All American Video Productions, Inc. "I have seen professional units for hundreds and even thousands of dollars that will not do any better job than the system that you have developed" Robert McConnell, Robert McConnell Productions "The tape was very informative, and I particularly like the fact that the 'VideoPrompter' plans were so complete... ...even somebody that's all thumbs can assemble and start using the 'VideoPrompter' in one afternoon" Chuck Hemstreet, QUEST Video Productions "Fantastic!!! Your VideoPrompter was a true lifesaver on my last production. It arrived just in time and really sped up our filming. Thank You! Thank You! Thank You!" Milt Bazo, Bazo Video and Photography
