Let’s face it. The media and entertainment industry has a big data challenge. A high-definition film shoot today can generate as much as 2TB of data per hour. Not to mention that data then needs to be captured, stored, and moved to different locations, throughout the post-production and commercial release process.
Factor in ever-increasing video capture resolutions, infrastructure and bandwidth limitations, and constant security concerns driving calls for encryption—it’s no surprise many businesses in the industry are finding data management an increasingly difficult task. Especially as many productions are asking DITs to do more work within shorter timeframes and limited budgets.
