Call into a TV show with Skype Video in Brazil
By
Jaanus on February 16, 2007 in Skype Around the World.
Rosana who edits the Skype Brasil blog also works as a TV host in Brazil. Now she brings us this cool idea of people dialing in with Skype Video straight to the studio and participating in talkshow as virtual audience. Click on the pictures to see larger versions.
Here’s what Rosana said.
I work for a live sunday night tv show in Brazil, called Panico na Tv, an equivalent do Saturday Night Live, on Sunday nights. We created a new way of having the audience in the studio, live, using Skype in a webcam. I’ll send you the pictures and you’ll understand right the way
It’s always live but this sunday, it will be recorded, because of Carnival. Two people, Leslie and Bruno, took part as virtual host and hostess, via skype, live, from Sao Paulo and Belo Horizonte. It will be on air this sunday night, from 21:00 h to 23:00 h Brazilian time and you can watch it on the web.
See these links to find out more, and see the post on the Brasil blog.

Tom Green(from the old Tom Green show on MTV) does something somewhat similar every night. He built a television studio in his house in Hollywood and broadcasts live over the internet at tomgreen.com monday thru friday. He often has major stars as guests and every night he takes Skype video calls from viewers who have questions for him or his guest.
