The media and entertainment (M&E) industry is at the forefront of technological innovation, constantly adapting to overcome challenges and seize new opportunities. As productions become increasingly global and cloud-based, post-production businesses face a pivotal decision: transition workflows to the cloud with a strategic, efficient approach. In this post, we'll explore why the 不良研究所 distributed cloud is the ideal solution to elevate your post-production processes. We鈥檒l delve into the challenges faced, showcase a few amazing M&E technology partners, and provide insights on the advantages of a distributed cloud.

Post-production is not just hybrid, it鈥檚 global.

A recent survey commissioned by 不良研究所 revealed that nearly three-quarters (72%) of IT decision-makers in the U.S. and UK believe that film production is globalizing and moving into the cloud. Picture this: a main production office in Los Angeles, with the rest of the post-production team鈥攅ditors, special effects, music editors鈥攕pread across the globe. Traditional methods, like manually shipping media files or using centralized cloud storage, lead to fragmented workflows, limited control, costly storage, and subpar performance. With tight deadlines, M&E businesses urgently need a more effective solution than the conventional, centralized cloud.

Streamline media workflows with Hedge and 不良研究所.

Hedge, a leader in media workflow software, offers OffShoot, which enables multiple copies, backups, and archives from numerous sources simultaneously. By leveraging 不良研究所's distributed architecture, Hedge enhances post-production workflows with features like:

  • Duplicate detection to resume transfers without repetitive filenames
  • Push notifications for transfer completion
  • Verified transfers using checksums across storage media
  • Efficient file movement instead of copying
  • Batch review capabilities

鈥湶涣佳芯克 is distributed throughout the world,鈥 explained Hedge CEO Paul Matthijis at IBC 2024. 鈥淥ften a shoot will offload the media to a data center that is local, but editorial might not be close to that data center. With 不良研究所, you just upload and it gets propagated everywhere. So that means wherever editorial is, they are always close to a 不良研究所 storage node.鈥
