24i enables end-to-end streaming solution for Cinessance
New OTT service dedicated to French cinema selects 24i as a
one-stop-shop software solution
Amsterdam, Netherlands, 30 September 2021- 24i , the video
streaming expert, has been selected to provide its end-to-end
streaming platform to Cinessance , the first globally-accessible
video on demand platform dedicated to French cinema.
Cinessance is the first video on demand platform of French
cinema, accessible anywhere in the world. The service will feature
French films across a wide range of genres, with consumers able to
choose between renting individual titles and taking out a monthly
subscription plan. It plans to launch its service in the US and
Canada later this year with a library of hundreds of classic and
modern movies which will be available on web browsers, Android and
iOS, with support for casting via Chromecast and AirPlay.
24i will supply its Smart Video backend, Smart Apps front-end
applications and Backstage content and application management
interface, together with CDN services. This fully cloud-based
solution covers all elements of the Cinessance end-to-end workflow
from content ingest and management to the applications on multiple
devices.
Cinessance will target the hundreds of million French speakers
worldwide and Francophiles who are interested in French culture and
will benefit from the English subtitles on offer at launch. The
company plans to expand to add further devices, additional
international markets and a catalogue of up to 500 titles in
2022.
Clément Monnet, Founder and CEO of Cinessance, said:
"We were looking for a one-stop-shop that would cover all of our
technical needs in a single solution. We were impressed with 24i's
strong OTT track record and the usability of both their video
streaming applications and the Backstage management interface."
Joachim Bergman, CEO of 24i, said:
"We are delighted to partner with Cinessance and offer them an
end-to-end cloud solution that will enable them to launch fast and
scale to support the growth of their exciting new video on demand
service to a market that's currently underserved by the leading
international streaming providers. The project really showcases the
end-to-end capabilities of our pre-integrated streaming
solutions."
