Integrated Media Production (IMPS) Theme visit to RTL, ENEX, BCE
10 & 11 february 2014 EBU, Geneva
PROGRAMME
3
Dear Colleagues,
RTL is the leading news broadcaster on TV, Radio & the internet in Luxembourg. Bringing all three media into line, making staff work together, and using existing resources to be faster and more efficient has been high on the agenda for a few years. The next big step is the new building project and the changed paradigm to build a newsroom where information matters, regardless of the way it is broadcast.
During this visit, you will: - Understand how RTL Luxembourg has brought its TV, Radio and online news production together and how the move to a new building will provide new opportunities to put stories, rather than platforms, at the heart of the production process. - Discover the file-based news exchange network ENEX and how ENEX members share their resources and their daily news videos, including a special highlight on the RTL Germany infonetwork. - Gain an understanding of Broadcast Center Europe and the synergies between RTL, ENEX & BCE.
Please also seize the opportunity to share your own experiences and challenges with our RTL hosts and other European colleagues and use what you have seen & learned to develop new ideas.
