    “While bringing a video caller to air is increasingly common, seeing it done well at scale is not. VCC’s professional clients and patent offices worldwide recognize the VCC’s intense focus on underlying processes that contribute to improved productivity, high quality, speed, and ease-of-use are unique. As VCC moves into new markets, this differentiation is valued for use in productions of all kinds, from network televisions and news to visual radio. Large and small corporations alike who value efficient production teams and whose brands are synonymous with quality depend on VCC.”

Caller Queue enables the producers of a show to:

    -Invite virtually unlimited numbers of viewers anywhere in the world to use their smartphones, tablets, and computers to participate on-air, and on-screen, in a live television production

    -Create a branded, virtual “green room” to retain guests prior to air. Guests can digitally sign legal releases and watch the show’s progress while waiting.

    -Sort, filter, and prioritize available video callers to best meet creative requirements

    -Communicate with callers to screen and prepare them prior to their appearance on air
