EditShare?, the technology leader in cross-platform collaborative editing and shared media storage systems, today announced the availability of EditShare Flow version 2.1 as well as new updates for EditShare XStream and Energy version 6, and Geevs version 5. EditShare purpose-built solutions power a wide-range of production workflows, including reality TV, episodics, news production, live events, education, sports, feature films, and more. The company?s systems have been used to create everything from entertainment blockbusters, such as The King?s Speech, to global events like the Winter Olympics.
The newly revved product line-up enhances media sharing and metadata management across the board, providing workflow continuity between broadcast and post-production systems from content acquisition to playout. ?This new round of development is a quantum leap forward in metadata management. Our systems preserve metadata details from the moment media is created, maintaining and adding information as content travels through the workflow ? from acquisition and production, to playout and archive. This type of metadata management is critical for just about any production where multiple systems and collaborators are involved,? said Andy Liebman, founder and CEO, EditShare.
Existing EditShare customers with a valid maintenance agreement receive the new releases free of charge.
