Titling and Graphics Overview
Aurora Edit and Aurora Edit LD have graphics tools available for inserting graphics
and titles on the Timeline Graphics track.
Both Aurora Edit and Aurora Edit LD have the ability to integrate via plug-ins to the
optional Orad and VizRT graphic systems. Orad allows an end-to-end workflow from
the journalist desktop directly to playout on air. The VizRT workflow includes
integration from the journalist desktop directly to the Graphics track on the Timeline.
Orad or VizRT must be properly configured in the top menu

pulldown for the proper graphics tool.
Aurora Edit can have a Title tool directly on the Timeline toolbar when the Chyron
Lyric plug-in option is installed and licensed. Built-in templates or those you create
can be used for integrating titles into a sequence.
