Monday, August 20, 2007

EditShare took home the C&T 2007 for Best Tapeless Digital Workflow for a project/facility roll out. Submitted in conjunction with Cutting Edge, Australia's largest privately owned post facility, EditShare won the coveted C&T Award for the widely popular reality TV show "Big Brother".

About the EditShare / Cutting Edge Project
Cutting Edge Managing Director Michael Burton proposed a tapeless workflow as a means to improve turnaround times for fast paced reality TV shows such as Big Brother. The transition to a tapeless workflow solved several critical issues and reduced overall costs of the operation. No longer did the team have to double-handle media. With EditShare, editors have instant access to high resolution source material via Gigabit Ethernet networks 24 hours a day.

The Cutting Edge / EditShare System Overview

* Integration of a Content Management System that includes live and proxy video generation, simple searching, and basic timeline editing

* Avid ALE generation and transfer to editing suites

* Control of a EVS disk capture system, capturing 6 live feeds continually

* Automatic transfer of 6 video streams to a 30TB EditShare system

The system was successfully used 24 hours a day for the three month Australian Big Brother '07 series. The EditShare workflow comprised of 10 Adrenaline suites and 10 proxy editing suites editing 2:1 realtime off the EditShare server.
