  3. Proposed Solution • Network file storage for collaborative work on multimedia documents (photos+videos) • Supported by an asset management system • Automate workflow, incl. flexible approval handling • Transcoding using (professional) commercial tools • Add intro/outro/watermarks • Add new output formats: podcasts, h264 • Compatible with future 3D rendering needs (CUDA) • Integrate with Mac platform used for AV production • Final Cut Pro • Final Cut Server for asset mgmt and workflow mgmt

  4. Overall Design wherever Web Interface Previewing Approving DFS Servers Temporary workspace Final Archiving Final Cut Server Asset Management Workflow Proxying 10 Gbps Final Cut Server Client Managing workflow Editing 1Gbps 10 Gbps 10 Gbps Transcoding Cluster 510 AV Office Computer Centre

  5. Why Apple Products • Our base editing software Final Cut Pro is used at CERN since 2005 • It is becoming a worldwide de-facto standard • Studios: Disney, Dreamworks, Universal, Warner Bros, 20th Century Fox, Paramount • TV stations: TSR, BBC, RSI, SF, TF1, UEFA, CNN, MTV, HBO • Local references: HUG, HUL • 1.8M registered users • http://www.apple.com/chfr/finalcutstudio/in-action/ • A coherent and integrated toolset • Apple workflow product ensures link between building blocks • Mac Pros can be reused as workstations later on

  6. New Workflow
