TouchCast Studio: Introduction to Studio

Studio Features

Studio integrates video and interactive elements to create compelling, high quality presentations. The power of Studio lies in the interactive elements.  On playback, your audience can browse documents, watch videos, and browse websites in full screen without leaving the presentation.


Process for Creating a TouchCast Video

The following diagram illustrates the process the author follows to develop and share a TouchCast video:



After a video is complete and uploaded to Fabric (our proprietary media sharing portal), it can be shared with others as a simple .mp4 format file (no interactive elements) or as a fully interactive TouchCast file (.tct) directly from the TouchCast Fabric repository or through a link which utilizes the TouchCast Fusion Video Player. In this scenario, viewers will not need to install any software -- the video is fully interactive in all modern browsers on all modern devices.


Understanding three important Studio features will help you present professionally:

  •      The first feature is video apps (vApps).  vApps are interactive elements such as embedding websites, other videos, scrollable documents, and polls which the viewer can interact with.


  • The second feature is the teleprompter script.  Each scene can have a written script developed and stored along with it.  The presenter uses this script while recording to ensure key points are made by using pre-recording wording.

  •      The third feature is the clip tray.  Post recording, the clips are organized in a horizontal tray where each scene video segment and its interactive resources are identified with markers.

The end product of the author’s creative work is a well-orchestrated presentation.
