What is TFC Ephemeral Productions?

Newest Update to NEP’s Broadcast Control Solution Improves How Production Teams Customize the Production Environment

January 15, 2024

The newest update to NEP’s broadcast controller, TFC, allows production teams to seamlessly reconfigure any TFC-enabled facility for multiple shows in a matter of minutes. Called “Ephemeral Productions,” this feature removes cumbersome setups with preset templates that can be shared amongst operators.

Its intuitive design ensures seamless transitions between productions, maximizing productivity and enabling broadcasters to cover more events while maintaining a consistent production environment. Additionally, the platform's ability to optimize resource utilization translates into substantial monetary savings, empowering broadcasters to invest in core areas of their operations.

TFC Allows Teams to Focus on Producing Compelling Content, Not Technology

This new feature adds to TFC’s existing offering and increases the value that the broadcast controller is able to deliver in a production environment:

  • Efficiency – TFC’s intuitive interface streamlines production setup changes, reducing downtime between shows.
  • Consistency –TFC ensures that every production, regardless of the facilities being used, adheres to the same high standards and workflows. By centralizing core settings and preferences, it guarantees uniformity in graphics, audio, video quality, and more.
  • Savings – TFC optimizes the utilization of shared resources across different shows, saving costs on additional hardware and maintenance. Moreover, the enhanced efficiency leads to reduced labor expenses, as fewer staff members are required to handle setup changes.

Ephemeral Productions allows broadcasters to effortlessly customize and optimize their production environment, saving valuable time and resources. It’s just one more way that NEP’s broadcast control solution is shifting production teams’ focus from technology to producing compelling content.
