Positive Flux Developers Help Turn Tom Wolzien Patent into Ready-for-Broadcast TV Video Call Center Solution

NEW YORK, July 8, 2014 /PRNewswire-iReach/ -- Positive Flux today announced that it has worked with media executive and inventor Tom Wolzien to turn his newly patented Video Call Center technology into a ready-for-air system that provides cable and TV networks with a cost-effective solution for creating live call-in programs. Wolzien's Video Call Center enables a new genre of television programming to emerge--"TV's version of talk radio"—by shifting complete control over the caller queue to the on-camera host and eliminating the need for a traditional broadcast control room.

"Video Call Center technology is a breakthrough in TV content creation, putting live production within the budget and technical capability of any broadcast operator," said Tom Wolzien. "We enable broadcasters to replace stale, reruns with compelling, dynamic, live and original content that engages viewers and advertisers. The experience of the Positive Flux team has been instrumental in turning our unique core technologies and fundamental vision into a practical solution that meets the budgetary and workflow requirements of our broadcast customers."

"Positive Flux thrives on driving and supporting innovation. When we saw Video Call Center, we immediately recognized technology with the capacity to be a legitimate game-changer" said Larry Thaler, President of Positive Flux. "Live call-shows are the mainstay of talk radio, but have been too expensive and complex to be considered by most broadcasters. VCC leverages ingenious automation and user interface tools to strip out the burdens and put an entirely new category of content in the hands of broadcasters."

One of the key contributions of Positive Flux to the VCC system was the creation of an intelligent, adaptive scripting system that enables the on air host to drive the switching and mixing of visual sources with a single touch. This enables each show to have it's own look and feel, despite working without a technical crew. "Hosts feel powerful when they use this technology," Thaler explains.

The change management experts at Positive Flux leveraged years of experience in broadcast workflow to create an interface that completely abstracts complexity for the show host, empowering them to serve as their own technical director in a way that enhances the program without distraction. Operating costs for a live TV show created with VCC are extremely low since there are no content costs for the video callers, and the staffing requirement is minimal.
