Wirecast is live video production software for laptop and desktop computers that is available for a fraction of the cost of broadcast hardware equipment. Wirecast works just like a video switcher, controlling real-time switching between multiple cameras while mixing in other media such as pre-recorded video, audio, and graphics. With features such as chroma key, lower thirds, transitions, 3D graphics, and virtual sets, Wirecast offers high production value for the creation of professional webcasts.
