A rundown for the production team
A live rundown that leads the crew
Arrange segments, cues, timings, and tasks in one rundown that stays current until the show ends.
MediaDock / intent
Everyone knows what is live, what comes next, and who owns the next move.
The solution
A plan that works with the broadcast
Run of Show gives everyone the next step, owner, and timing without another spreadsheet.
In practiceWhat this is
A live rundown describes segments, timing, cues, and ownership. It is a living plan that should guide the show even when the event changes at the last minute.
What this is / 01Where the work gets hard
An emailed spreadsheet stops being reliable after the first change. Different people work from different versions and miss the current segment.
Without ownership and a timer, it is easy to lose a transition, guest, or sponsor block. One delay affects the whole schedule.
Building a custom planning system takes time, while ordinary documents do not give the control room the view it needs during the show.
In practice
A rundown that leads the programme
In practice / 02The producer arranges segments, timings, cues, and owners in one broadcast plan.
The crew sees the current programme position without searching for the latest spreadsheet or message.
A schedule change updates the shared context for the control room, presenters, and technical teams.
After the show, the rundown remains a record of what actually happened.
Rundowns
A plan that survives the first rehearsal
A broadcast script is a live tool. On show day, timings, guests, segment order, and sponsor decisions change, so a static document quickly stops helping.
Run of Show connects planning with execution: every segment has timing, ownership, and a transition cue. Everyone works from the same version even when the programme changes late.
The control room can then prioritise the show instead of following whichever version was last sent in chat.
The solution, cost, and time / 03The solution, cost, and time
MediaDock Run of Show connects segments, cues, timers, and roles in one project that can be updated without creating another copy.
A ready module reduces preparation time and the number of coordination tools. Start with a simple rundown and expand it as the production grows.
