The Broadcast Studio space is equipped with the remote control Readycam  system, which allows users to appear live on any broadcast network or streaming platform without leaving the HLS campus. The system includes a high-definition camera, teleprompter, studio lights, and virtual background options. In addition to live broadcasts, this studio may also be used to create recorded media.

Faculty and staff can request use of the Broadcast Studio by submitting a ticket. LXI will staff this space when users are doing media hits.

LXI will train all first-time users of this space on the available equipment, and users may request additional training and support as needed using the “create course content” ticket option in Service Now.
