Avid Everywhere Transforms Workflow for twofour54
twofour54, a tax-free media and entertainment free zone in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, facilitates the development of Arabic media and entertainment content in the region and offers production and post-production services for film and broadcast projects.
Working with a strict budget, the facility needed to replace its infrastructure with a more streamlined and future-proof solution with additional storage capacity, in order to remain competitive, maintain its reputation for innovation and attract more filmmakers and high-end broadcast content producers.
"Our new infrastructure solution has given us an end-to-end collaborative 4K environment that enables us to maintain the high quality services for which we are renowned," said
After conducting thorough research, twofour54 upgraded its media production infrastructure with Interplay® | Production and Interplay | Archive asset management systems, and implemented Avid MediaCentral | UX, the cloud-based, web front-end for the Avid MediaCentral Platform. The team also chose an Avid enterprise storage solution that enables real-time SD, HD, and 4K collaboration and can scale up for larger projects without interrupting production. It also supports third party editing solutions including Adobe Premiere and Apple Final Cut Pro, and a wide variety of hi-res media formats including Avid DNxHR®, REDCODE 5K, 4K DCI (DPX), ProRes, XAVC, and Sony F55 RAW 4K.
twofour54 also purchased the Avid Service Level Agreement, which provides free software upgrades for Avid editing systems, enabling a cost-effective upgrade path across the facility. The enterprise solution also includes a Spectra Logic BlackPearl™ Deep Storage Gateway and a Spectra® T120 tape library for video footage archiving.
"By embracing Avid Everywhere, twofour54 is able to maintain its competitive edge and attract new customers," said
