Teleprompter Software and Hardware
When you purchase MSI Prompt you get our proprietary personal teleprompter with recording which makes it the only software of its kind in the world.
But we know you want more so we also provide you with additional software to allow you to run full screen teleprompter and even do reverse imaging.
We also want to show you how to build your very own teleprompter stand.
Having seen a number of commercial teleprompters over the years in television studios and at trade shows, I understood the concept. A teleprompter is a made of a sheet of glass suspended in front of the camera lens at a 45-degree angle. The glass reflects the image of a TV screen without affecting the light entering the lens. In the most sophisticated units, there is a controller — and an operator — to set the pace of the text scrolling on the screen. This one is a little more primitive.
Figure 1: This homemade teleprompter has adjustable height (marked with a felt pen on the legs), a platform for the PowerBook or laptop, and a sheet of window glass mounted at a 45-degree angle in front of the lens. In the studio it works great. In a brightly-illuminated setting it would have to be draped with a black cloth to prevent ambient light from overpowering the image.
My prompter is nothing more than a sheet of window glass supported in a plywood frame in front of the camera at the correct angle (see Figure 2). I probably spent three hours cutting and building. Once it was finished, I set the PowerBook on it, and practiced reading the text as scrolls using the teleprompter software.
Figure 3: The PowerBook display is placed flat on the platform, and the glass reflects the image of the narration to the subject in front of the camera. The camera looks right through the glass, and is unaffected by the image on the computer.
Even with years of experience reading film negatives, handset type and such, my backwards-reading skills are limited. The image on my home-built teleprompter was — of course — backward. Our special bonus software will reverse the image so that on the glass it will appear correctly.
Figure 4: With the text flipped, I can read the narration from the display while looking directly into the lens of the video camera. With a mouse or keyboard on an extension cable, I control the changing of the scrolling, and thus the pace of the narration. At first I thought the diminutive PowerBook would be too small to read easily, but have since learned that teleprompter screens are intentionally narrow to keep the reader’s eyes from moving too far back and forth while reading.
With my home-built teleprompter, the recording of the narration went smoothly, and now I have the device anytime I need it.
And I bet I’m the only person on my street with his own teleprompter!
