This paper describes TVML(TV program Making Language) of automatically generating television programs from text-based script. This language describes the contents of a television program using expressions with a high level of abstraction like "title #1" and "zoom-in." The software used to read a script written in TVML and to automatically generate the program video and audio is called the TVML Player. The paper begins by describing TVML language specifications and the TVML Player. It then describes the "external control mode" of the TVML Player that can be used for applying TVML to interactive applications. Finally, it describes the TVML Editor, a user interface that we developed which enables users having no specialized knowledge of computer languages to make TVML scripts. In addition to its role as a television-program production tool, TVML is expected to have a wide range of applications in the network and multimedia fields.
