New EditShare Customer Profile: West Virginia University
Sunday, August 19, 2007
The Television Production Department at WVU is a busy operation, turning out more than 50+ "Mountainer Magazine" and "Mountaineer Jammin" programs for the Mountaineer Network which is syndicated and carried by several TV stations in the region. These and a full schedule of live Mountaineer Network game coverage of football, basketball, and other sports and campus activities keep the WVU team at full tilt. With the workload growing, Manager of Communications Engineering Fred Marstiller needed to streamline the operation and move towards an integrated file-based workflow to keep up with demand.
With each of the five Avid edit suites a stand-alone unit, there was no way to share material; valuable time was wasted digitizing tapes and waiting for materials. That all changed when WVU installed an EditShare system loaded with 36TB of storage. Unlike other shared storage systems, the Network Attached Storage (NAS) EditShare solution is uniquely optimized for postproduction workflows, offering software tools such as Avid project sharing that maximize collaboration for multi-user environments such as WVU.
