Improved access to content for editors reinforces TVU’s commitment to making its cloud-based solutions as robust as possible. Without leaving the TVU ecosystem, sports productions have immediate access to multiple ISO recordings, which makes it faster and easier to edit timely highlight reels that can be included in the production as well as shared on social media platforms, OTT, and the web. The same efficiencies can improve live production workflows for other events as well, from political debates to concerts, as editors do not have to wait for files to be uploaded before starting projects.
“Partnering with TVU provides an exciting opportunity for Blackbird users,” said Ian McDonough, Blackbird CEO. “The ability to access live video from TVU Producer, TVU Grid, and other areas of the TVU cloud-based platform makes it easier and faster for editors to access content from multiple sources. Immediacy is an important element in broadcast environment. Working within TVU means Blackbird editors can deliver polished packages faster than ever.”
