Professors at The George Washington University (GW) are now available for live television interviews from their ReadyCam® Studio. The on-site studio, which was installed on GW’s campus in Washington, D.C., last week, allows their faculty to connect with media conveniently and easily, without leaving the University. In fact, Frank Cilluffo, director of the Homeland Security Policy Institute at George Washington University, appeared live on CBC News only hours after the install was complete.
“When it came time to upgrade our studio, we looked at several options and ReadyCam® provided the most reliable and simplest solution to connect television and radio networks with our experts,” said Candace Smith, executive director of media relations at the George Washington University. “We plan to use the studio for taped interviews, media training and webinars.”
The ReadyCam® system uses Enhanced IP™ technology to transmit broadcast quality HD video over the Internet to anywhere around the world.
“We are excited to add George Washington University to our ReadyCam® network,” says Lloyd Bunting, VideoLink’s Senior Vice President, Sales and Marketing. “The University’s professors have a wide range of expertise. We are happy to provide them with a solution that will help them to quickly and easily share their research and knowledge.”
GW staff can speak about everything from law and business to health sciences and politics. To book the GW ReadyCam® Studio for commentary and interviews, contact Candace Smith at cesmith@gwu.edu or gwmedia@gwu.edu.
