The Project starting point came from the TV7´s director, Paulo Simões, made the decision of using Avid Media Composer as the editing seat. From this point, along with Paulo, Drivesys team developed a workflow to best meet the ongoing production and further improve it.

Since editing would be Avid Based, it was mandatory to use a central storage which natively supports the “bin locking” function, then a 96TB Terrablock from Facilis Technology was chosen. Terrablock was also valuable due to its Fiber and Ethernet connectivity which allowed to make use of the current Xsan FC infrastructure, avoiding the costs of a new 10Gbe infrastructure.

Im nächsten Schritt wurde definiert, wie Online- und Offline-Content verwaltet und mit den Media Composer-Plätzen, den Texteditoren, der Produktion und der Regie integriert werden sollte. Um dem zu entsprechen, integrierte Drivesys das Cantemo Portal MAM-System, P5 Archive von Archiware und die CP Archive App von MMCT.
