The thematic channel installs a modern VSN asset management platform
FishTV a Latin American online channel which its programming includes 35 HD programs (XDCAM HD 50 MXF), producing over 240 minutes of weekly news and entertainment, decided to implement an open VSN MAM and Archive solution (VSNARCHIVE) based on the Spider platform, which puts together asset management and business processes, hence facilitating multiplatform distribution.
VSNARCHIVE manages the whole contents production and postproduction chain (with 7 Adobe Premiere systems on a 10Gbps network) in XDCAM HD 50 MXF, as well as the archive and materials retrieval processes (16 clients) on a parameterized and customizable data model for each client. The definition of the client’s workflows was implemented in record time thanks to the BPM (Business Process Manager) module called VSNWORKFLOW MANAGER, included in the platform. A 100TB online storage system and a LTO library with SGL driver (fully integrated with VSNARCHIVE) complete a fully scalable and automated solution.
Video Systems, VSN’s partner in Brazil, was the provider and the installation was recently finalized in June 2012.
