Content production technologies

Multimedia content now travels worldwide over the internet, and that growth has created several pressing needs. Archived material must be reused, newly stored footage needs to be put to work, unfinished broadcast programmes require completion, and finished productions need new uses.

The book addresses these challenges with technical solutions. It covers large-scale archives built to hold significant content, a retrieval method suited to archives of that size, and remote editing workflows.

It also examines the protection of intellectual property rights, a central concern for content owners. The intended readership includes broadcast engineers, systems integrators, engineers at equipment manufacturers, and R&D specialists in content production and digital archiving.
