Abstract
ABSTRACT The TV industry has long been under pressure to adapt its workflows to use advanced Internet technologies. It also must face competition from social media, video blogs, and livestreaming platforms, which are enabled by lightweight production tools and new distribution channels. The social-distancing regulations introduced due to the COVID-19 pandemic added to the list of challenging adaptations. One of the remaining bastions of legacy TV production is the live broadcast of sporting events and news. These production practices rely on tight collaboration in small spaces, such as control rooms and outside broadcast vans. This paper focuses on current socio-technical changes, especially those changes and adaptations in collaborative practices and workflows in TV production. Some changes necessary during the pandemic may be imposed, temporary adjustments to the ongoing situation, but some might induce permanent changes in key work practices in TV production. Further, these imposed changes are aligned with already ongoing changes in the industry, which are now being accelerated. We characterize the changes along two main dimensions: redistribution of work and automation.
期刊介绍：
Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) is a multidisciplinary journal defining and reporting
on fundamental research in human-computer interaction. The goal of HCI is to be a journal
of the highest quality that combines the best research and design work to extend our
understanding of human-computer interaction. The target audience is the research
community with an interest in both the scientific implications and practical relevance of
how interactive computer systems should be designed and how they are actually used. HCI is
concerned with the theoretical, empirical, and methodological issues of interaction science
and system design as it affects the user.
