    Content Preparation 
    Content comes in many different physical forms – analogue or digital 
    tape, CD, DVD, PC files – or as a real-time feed from a satellite or 
    communications link.  The first requirement of content preparation is to 
    make sure you have all the necessary hardware and software to be able to 
    play the content correctly.
 
      
    All well as 
    different physical forms, content can vary in terms of resolution,
    
    colour-space,
    
    aspect-ratio, frame-rate and sound format.  All of these aspects must be 
    taken into account for the best possible presentation. 
      
    In 
    addition, it may be necessary to extract portions from existing content 
    rather than presenting the whole programme.  The extracted clips will need 
    to be selected and edited to ensure they start and finish in a controlled 
    manner. 
      
    A vital, 
    but often overlooked, part of content preparation is to conduct a proper 
    rehearsal.  This needs to be done under good viewing and listening 
    conditions so that any problems with the image and sound can be identified 
    and corrected - before the audience arrives.
