- One rundown can control:
✔️ a fully cloud-based studio

One man band: DPG Media
DPG Media employs Cuez to create script and rundown templates. Journalists input the text and upload all assets (videos, graphics, camera positions, incoming sources, etc.) into the rundown. Cuez then automatically sends this information to all connected back-end devices.
This streamlined process allows the presenter to go live, and with a simple press of the spacebar, one person can effortlessly run a broadcast!
