Description

Real-time design tool

Viz Artist is a powerful graphics design tool that supports a range of production use cases including live motion graphics, virtual sets, augmented reality, and complex 3D animations. Offering an advanced toolset, Viz Artist creates scenes, templates, and packages for other Vizrt applications to maximize creativity and deliver stronger audience engagement through immersive viewer experiences for all types of programs.

Viz Artist creates everything from basic lower third titles and simple design packages up to photorealistic virtual sets and stunning augmented reality objects for all types of media production environments. This single application provides a data harvesting, data visualization, motion design, branding, and advanced 3D graphics toolset.

Viz Artist releases designers from repetitive graphics creation and gives them complete freedom to concentrate on the creative side of their work. It could be designing an original graphic for a breaking news story or designing an innovative election project. Because Viz Artist is real-time and easy to use, projects are completed quickly in time for live programs.


  1. Design scenes and make them accessible in other Vizrt applications
  2. Create data driven graphics scenes to enhance news and sports stories
  3. Integrate video clips as part of a scene, or as textures mapped on geometry

The world of graphics is expansive, so Viz Artist supports custom plugins to solve specific design or workflow challenges, imports models and files from major 3D applications, and works with data from camera tracking systems.

Video is also a key part of the creation process with Viz Artist. The Viz Engine compositing and rendering platform provides real-time content creation and review during design, and high-performance playout of even the most complex visual scenes. The flexible input output system enables real-time IP-and SDI based workflows. Video can be used as part of a scene, or as textures mapped on geometry. Clips and live video of any resolution can be used as part of scene designs.
