After the huge success of TVB Europe-s first IT Broadcast Workflow conference in December 2009, now the second IT Broadcast Workflow conference is introduced at BAFTA in London on November 30, 2010. S4M – Solutions for Media acts as a silver sponsor of the event and again will be a part of the official programme.
In a joint presentation German public broadcaster NDR (represented by NDR-s Project Manager Michael Tißen and NDR-s Head of Postproduction Sascha Molina) and S4M (represented by S4M-s Project Manager Stefan Eckardt) will introduce the project “Interlinked Production at NDR Television”.
Presentation Key Facts:
Interlinked production at NDR Television
? In 2009 the NDR in Hamburg rolled out new workflows for network- and file- based production.
? Parallel and more effective workflows provide for more programme output.
? One technical system can be used for all workflows and all programme genres.
? An overall concept for metadata (from planning to playout) was developed.
? A fully integrated file-based archive enables users to work with video material from the (long term) archives as well as up-to-date (news) material quickly and easily at any time.
The IT Broadcast Workflow Conference is a unique opportunity to learn from a variety of European broadcasters how they have incorporated file-based operation into their businesses across the chain, from ingest to delivery. This is not a theoretical discussion or white paper debate. TVB Europe puts together a packed day of dedicated end-user case studies on the migration of television broadcasting production and technology from videotape to IT platforms. IT-based production requires a change in infrastructure and the way people in TV operations work. The event provides a real-life platform for discussion of these critical current issues.
