How to Set Up the Skytronn Mini: Remote Interrotron.

 

The Skytronn Mini is an Interrotron (teleprompter) at a distance for smaller productions with a remote director and talent. The Blackmagic Web Presenter included in the kit, allows for the director to receive the footage being taken of the talent on set, via Zoom meeting. The talent then is able to speak directly to the director, while looking into the camera using the Interrotron which is displaying the Zoom video from the director.
