Photography
ShootLive software runs on the photographer's laptop. It automates many of the processes associated with digital photography and frees the photographer from manually editing and wiring images to the picture desk.
ShootLive's connection manager establishes and maintains the mobile data connection to the ShootLive server. Digital images are sent to a local ISP via 3G or WiFi and then onto the ShootLive server.
ShootLive automatically prepares a low-resolution preview image of every picture taken, and presents this in an easy-to-see form to the picture editor.
ShootLive's automated image handling gives photographers the freedom to roam and cover events on the move so they can fully concentrate on taking pictures.
