Blackmagic Design makes ATEM switchers and DaVinci Resolve for edit, colour, audio, and finishing. The tour pairs live switching with post so you can stop treating podcasts like a radio show with accidental cameras.

A tour built around practical workflow demos

Blackmagic Design is running its European Workflow Tour over two days, pitching a complete live and postproduction workflow based on Blackmagic Design products. The promise is faster output and better quality, but the programme does not define formats, targets, or benchmarks. It is a workshop, to try and experiment and look over each others shoulders.

The useful angle is simple: this is a low-risk moment to poke the hardware before you buy it, ask the awkward questions out loud, and compare notes with other crews about what actually breaks at 2 a.m. The programme text does not explicitly describe hands-on access or open networking time, so treat that as an opportunity rather than a guarantee. Dates and cities in the published schedule are Amsterdam on 19 and 20 March, and Berlin on 24 and 25 March.

Day one: podcasts, but with coverage you can fix in post

Day one targets podcast production, specifically turning audio-only podcasts into multi-camera shows. The workflow pitch centres on using ATEM live production switchers for the live cut while capturing ISO recordings of each camera angle, plus the final programme.

That combination is the practical hook: the live switch gives you speed, the ISOs give you options, and DaVinci Resolve is positioned as the finishing and delivery stage. The programme explicitly names delivery to YouTube and X.

The podcast sessions run 11:00–12:00 on “Design a Complete Podcast Production Workflow”, 12:30–13:30 on “Create Video Podcasts Faster with ATEM ISO”, 14:00–15:00 on “Finish and Deliver Podcasts in DaVinci Resolve”, and 15:30–16:30 on “Global Podcast Production with Cloud Collaboration”.

Day two: Resolve for high-volume content and consistency

Day two is framed as “DaVinci Resolve for Content Creation”, with a focus on working in one application from start to finish, handling large volumes of media, maintaining creative control and consistency, and working collaboratively with cloud collaboration.

Sessions run 10:30–12:00 on “Simplify Content Creation with DaVinci Resolve”, 12:30–13:30 on “Edit Large Media Libraries Quickly”, 14:00–15:00 on “Maintain Creative Control and Brand Consistency”, and 15:30–16:30 on “Work Faster with Cloud Collaboration”.

New tools and innovations should be tested before use in production, ideally with your own media, your own deliverables, and a plan for when the first thing goes sideways. So, give it a try at the Workshops!
