Additional Context
The 'The Big Picture' format, originally from Talpa, emphasizes viewer participation, allowing at-home audiences to interact via a dedicated mobile app and potentially become contestants (RTP.pt, January 2017). This interactive element has been a key feature since the show's launch on RTP's prime-time schedule in early 2016 (RTP Extra, January 2016). wTVision's involvement highlights its continued role in providing technology for complex live entertainment programs, having previously worked on formats like 'Big Brother' and 'Rising Stars' (Panorama Audiovisual, February 2016). The use of specialized software like Studio CG and Quiz Manager underscores a trend towards integrated solutions that streamline broadcast workflows, particularly for shows with dynamic, real-time graphical and interactive requirements. Shine Iberia - Portugal produced the show, further illustrating the demand for robust technical partners in major international production adaptions (Shine Iberia, undated).
