PACKETDECK
Interface mockups for PacketCast, a radio playout system with automation and live assist. PacketMatrix is the engine and PacketDeck is the studio screen. Playout is simulated in the browser, so no audio plays. Every option shares the same playout logic and fills the screen without scrolling.
