NRCS-lite for Education

Broadcast Project Management for Schools — Assignment-to-Air

Most rundown tools start at the show. Classrooms start at the assignment. RundownHQ manages Programs → Seasons → Episodes, story assignments, package uploads, script approvals, rundown building, teleprompter, and live cue control—so teachers run a real newsroom and students learn real roles.

Everything from pitch to prompter

📺

Programs, Seasons & Episodes

Organize daily news, sports shows, and podcasts like a professional newsroom. Archive by academic year and individual broadcasts.

📋

Assignment Management

Create story assignments with owners, due dates, and runtime targets. Students accept, transfer, or collaborate with full accountability.

🎬

Package Workflow

Upload video packages and VOs. Producers review, leave notes, and request changes. Approved content flows to the rundown automatically.

📝

Scripts & Approvals

Teachers and producers approve scripts before air. Track revisions, redlines, and final sign-off—no email chains or lost docs.

🗂️

Rundown Builder

Compile approved items into a timed, printable rundown. Reorder by drag-and-drop, lock segments, and see over/under timing in real-time.

📺

Teleprompter & Live

Run the show with an integrated teleprompter. Showcallers track real-time timing and cues as the broadcast unfolds.

👥

Student Dashboard

Students see their notices, assignments due, event notifications, team calendar, upcoming events, and rundown schedules in one place.

👨‍🏫

Team Management

Teachers build team profiles, assign users to shows, and organize broadcast crews. Define roles and manage permissions across programs.

Built for education, not just broadcast

Tools like Rundown Creator, Shoflo, and Rundown Studio are designed for professional crews. RundownHQ is purpose-built for classrooms—where students need structure, teachers need visibility, and everyone needs to learn the process before the performance.
