The Principles of Prompting

This section aims to provide those who are unfamiliar with prompting systems the basic terms

involved.

2.6.1 Prompters

The prompter is normally mounted on the front of the camera and displays the scrolling text

created by the script editor for the presenter to read. The text from the monitor is reflected

onto a special sheet of glass. Thus the presenter can see the text, but the camera looks

straight through it.

2.6.2 The Script Editor

The script editor is used to write and modify the story the presenter is going to read. Each

story is represented as a one-line entry in the rundown.
