CuePilot

Business Development Manager Danny Hodgetts, is joining us to discuss CuePilot, the original digital shot scripting tool for live multi-camera music productions. The aim is to bring camera directing up to the same technological level as audio and lighting, with cloud based collaboration, real-time update and communication, and studio hardware automation tools included in the package. https://www.cuepilot.com/en/home.html Submit your questions anytime https://www.askofficehours.global Join our global community https://officehours.global 00:00 Intro 14:03 Regarding the kinds of things we do here with Live, does Cue Pilot work well with widely located crew on different time zones? 15:28 Does CuePilot actually send API commands to switchers & tape machines to automate the playback of the script? 24:48 Does CuePilot generate a show caller script with standbys? Can the director change their plan during a song (say there's a camera problem) which will change the show caller script? 28:01 Could CuePilot control PTZ cameras if they are used on a show? 33:24 Can building/set/lighting models be loaded into CuePilot to storyboard camera moves in a 3D virtual space - including simulated video on location-based screens? 34:49 CuePilot seems very capable with many features built into the latest offering. What types of tools does it replace and what tools does it interface to collaborate? 47:06 Are there safety considerations if CuePilot is triggering things like stage movement, Pyro, Trap Doors, Scenery winches etc. Does a stage manager have to indicate everything safe for the next Cue? 49:25 What was the inspiration that informed your UI/UX? There seems to be a mix of familiar call backs to traditional showflow but also reimagined functionality. 51:33 Can you switch from timecode based timing in case the drummer decides to extend their drum solo? 53:43 Is NDI PTZ control supported? 54:18 Can I lock the shot numbering and go to a 23a and 23b once the the crew has learned the numbered sequence? 55:40 Can you talk about the graphics integrations in CuePilot? 57:02 Does it talk OSC? And would it send and receive commands and triggers to and from QLab?
