Linking to an existing news or sports story

Aurora Edit can link to scripts on iNEWS, Octopus, and AP/ENPS Newsroom computer
systems, which you can use as an aid for creating your sequence or linking the NCS
script to add graphics or video clips to the Timeline.

You can link to a news or sports story when you create a new sequence, as described
below, by opening Sequence Properties and clicking the Link to Story icon.

When an optional Orad or VizRT graphics system is installed, MOS graphic objects
in the NCS script can be copied to the Graphics track on the Timeline in Aurora Edit
or Aurora Edit LD. The MOS object can be retrieved from the graphics engine to a
graphic on the Timeline and the editor can then preview and edit the graphic if required
before sending it to playout. Orad graphics can also be sent directly to playout once
retrieved to the Timeline.

Video elements from feeds started in Aurora Ingest Scheduler or archived offline
assets can be brought into ENPS from a search within ENPS. The video can then be
moved into the ENPS script as a MOS object. The editor can link to the script and
move the MOS object into the clip player then copy it onto the Timeline.
