Emory University, Emory Healthcare and Oxford College maintain separate TV programming services, with unique channel line-ups. Emory Healthcare and the Oxford campus are served by area cable providers.
Audio and Video Streaming services are used for live broadcasts and on-demand content that can be archived. Streaming services can be used to create digital media for online courses, for department training sessions and to document and promote other campus events. Streaming is flexible and can be customized for the specific needs of any type of project.
Content can be deployed on Emory’s network and then to the internet for worldwide viewing. Specialized services such as Live streaming require advance planning, technical coordination, advertising and other resources in order to deliver a successful event.
