The layer that makes it work.

Every show is a chain: cameras into a switcher, graphics into the cut, the cut onto the network, the network out to the world. We draw that chain, test it, and put a second path beside the first.

It is on every show we take. It matters more when the show is in more than one place, or the audience is somewhere the crew is not.

This is not added after the camera plan. It is why the other layers can fail over without the show going dark. The audience does not see it. That is the point.
