Media asset management grows Apace
Media asset management grows Apace
April 20, 2009:Apace Systems has launched Version 2.0 of its end-to-end workflow system for video and multimedia creation, distribution and archiving.
The postMAM 2.0 and ViEW system platform uses a web browser to receive streamed Flash content from any PC, MAC or smart mobile device. Editors and users with secure access can view playlists/Channels, comments on the content and communicate their feedback over the web instantly.
Also, mobile audio and graphic commenting and logging is offered as option as well for computer-less production access. The objective of the workflow is to offer virtualized media access, search, interactive collaboration and peer to peer transport of content decoupling media from any physical location.
For professional postproduction workflows, the seamless integration of ingest, edit and proxy generation from the final cut of raw content, and having all media reside and be accessible from the centralized or distributed clusters of Apace hardware storage servers can tie creation and distribution of content together.
The benefits in efficiency and cost savings are achieved as editing, peer review, and approval process of media cuts are streamlined and instant. Editors can simply communicate, collaborate and rough cut at the timecode level on raw footage using a collaborative video editing process between different remote locations globally.
A director, from field or a hotel, can directly access and offer editing instructions at video clips and timecode level to the head office, and drastically cutting down production time. Combined with Apace’s postMAM media asset management, ViEW offers a virtualized video collaboration and communication workflow to streamline the process of upload, remote ingest, and edit raw footage via Internet so editors can collaborate anywhere around the world.
