MUNCIE, Indiana - In television news programs, there are a number of ways through which news can be delivered. Among them are Voice Over (VO) and Sound on Tape (SOT).
In VO, news anchors read their lines over a video of the news reported. This means that the anchors' face are not shown during VO.
On the other hand, SOT refers to the parts of news that contain pre-recorded interviews. The anchor will not speak during this part.
When both combined, they can make a news package. One can start with a sequence of footages where the anchor does his/her VO and end with a pre-recorded interview (SOT).
An example to this can be seen in the video above.
