Video production processes are still
evolving from the days of analog media and linear editing system. Much
of todays' processes still involve shuffling tapes, continual encoding
and decoding and physical tape archives. Further, collaboration among
colleagues, partners and customers in still largel done in an off-line
fashion. The result is protracted production processes and general
inefficiency.
With the increased adoption of open IT platforms and standards, new
digital video technologies, robust digital repositories and
media-centric business process management capabilities, video
production can now become fully digital and on-line. |
