Features and Connections Most schools that produce news programs, orientation tapes, or student video projects like to add titles and graphics to their productions.
Graphics can certainly add to the information and entertainment value of video productions.
Fortunately, character generators, like personal computers, are getting more powerful and less expensive. If graphics weren't stored on a floppy diskette, they were erased when the character generator lost power. Now, a character generator with dozens of fonts, millions of colors, and internal memory for hundreds of graphic pages sells for one-tenth the price. Don't be confused by the name. As you can imagine, each manufacturer selects features they want to include in their character generators.
