Blackbird to showcase ultra-efficient video editing in the cloud
with Amazon Web Services at NAB 2020
Seattle and London - Blackbird plc (AIM: BIRD) today announced
that it will showcase ultra-efficient video editing in the cloud
Amazon Web Services ("AWS") booth at NAB 2020.
Organisations working with video on a large scale need to be
able to rapidly and easily access, view, edit and publish their
content to all platforms and devices for audiences to consume. With
cloud-based video editing and publishing platform Blackbird running
on AWS, companies can drive productivity efficiencies across their
operations.
Blackbird is a professional video editor in a browser. Providing
rapid access to live and non-live content, Blackbird enables the
fast creation of video clips and highlights to multiple devices and
platforms including web, broadcast, OTT and social. Easy to learn
and use, Blackbird is available to anyone, virtually anywhere in
the world, even with low bandwidth. Blackbird drives awareness,
engagement, reach and monetization opportunities for brands in the
sports, esports, news, entertainment and enterprise sectors.
A green technology, Blackbird supports the sustainability goals
of the media production industry. Users do not have to travel to
use Blackbird, no new equipment is needed and with content
remaining in situ, large energy savings are made.
Blackbird runs on Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud ("Amazon EC2") -
a web service that provides secure, resizable compute capacity in
the cloud - and ingests content through AWS Elemental MediaLive, a
broadcast-grade live video processing service that lets users
create high-quality video streams for delivery to broadcast
televisions and internet-connected multiscreen devices, like
connected TVs, tablets, smart phones, and set-top boxes.
Blackbird CEO, Ian McDonough, said: "Blackbird is delighted to
showcase its solution at the AWS booth at NAB for the first time
this year. We are now leveraging AWS for a number of live customers
in the of global sports, entertainment, and news verticals and this
is a great opportunity to showcase the unique benefits of our
combined workflow."
