DigitalFilm Tree (DFT) is a leading edge post-production and
software company. Their work in Hollywood offers proof to the OpenStack
community that the cloud is ideal for scaling-up short-term media storage on a
massive scale, while offering significant cost and time saving benefits to
non-entertainment organizations.

In groundbreaking live demonstration of federated identity,
video shot by Guillaume on a Sony 4K camera this morning was uploaded to the
cloud. The file was accessed instantly by the team at DFT’s post production
facility in Los Angeles, edited, colored and readied for streaming at the close
of the keynote, all in about 15 minutes.

and major theatrical releases. ProStack does the heavy lifting while Critique
is the elegant collaboration software. These two products are offered together

Ramy Katrib, CEO of DigitalFilm Tree stated, “We want the OpenStack community to think
about the volume of video being generated within their organizations, by every
department and in every worldwide office, and how it is rapidly becoming a
challenge. Video is big data and
burdens storage systems. But video is also an asset; it is the most effective
tool for an enterprise to tell its story to a multitude of stakeholders.
Effective management of that asset can generate countless benefits.”

Streamlined cloud based workflows are the foundation of the
file based revolution in the entertainment industry. A single show saved
thousands of dollars a week in post, which was really a function of cutting out
wasted time at virtually every step of the process. Cloud based workflows allow
access by multiple, authorized team members in real time. “Perhaps
the biggest loser in this process is the overnight courier,” noted
Guillaume who also sent his video file via overnight delivery, through customs,
as comparison to instant cloud access.
