In the next post I will discuss what make one teleprompter better than the other and help you get closer to deciding on what type of teleprompter you looking for.Prompt Service uses modern BDL Autoscript hardware and software as well as the first robotically-operated stage teleprompting system in NZ, Telestepper! If you prefer iPad or tablets rather than desktop or laptop computers you will most likely go with an iPad/tablet solution. The technology you use is also about preference. Your objective should determine which teleprompter you need for your unique situation.įor example, if you are delivering a speech to a room of people and want to seem natural, and not give on to the fact you are reading a script, you would probably go with a traditional stage prompter setup because of it is the most practical for this situation, but if you are shooting a video and you want to be able to follow your subject around with your camera as you pan-and-tilt the tripod head, you will want to use an On-Camera Teleprompter. When it comes to features it is more a matter of preference than anything else. For example, a Studio On-Camera Teleprompter can be built on a chassis that is made of two linear round rods know as rails, or the chassis can be a platform based setup that is proprietary to its design. The types of types of teleprompters have their own types. If that isn't confusing enough there is even more to it.

So there you have it! the two types of teleprompters, right? or, maybe not.Īctually, there are types of types of teleprompters. They provide a visual representation of the script that the speaker/talent are trying to deliver to their subject in the way of scrolling text. The two types are for different things but they both do the same thing. They are the two pieces of square glass that site at 9 o'clock and 2 o'clock in relation to the speaker. You can almost always find them near a politician out on the campaign trail.

They usually sit in front of the speaker/talent on a stand. They provide a visual aid to someone giving a speech. Speach teleprompters, most commonly referred to as presidential or stage prompters do exactly what the name implies. I teleprompter that is designed for producing video is designed to work with a camera which usually sits on the teleprompter and record the subject while they are reading the scrolling text. What makes these two different from each other is this. One for recording video, and the other for giving public speeches. Because basically there are two main types of teleprompters. If I were to give you a very straightforward explanation about how many different types of teleprompters there are, the answer would be two. What are the different kinds of teleprompters?ĭepending on how you look at it there are two or as many as five different styles of teleprompters.
