Remote Innovations on the Cloud
2020 was a year of change in many ways. One of these aspects of change was the acceleration and adoption of remote workflows, leveraging collaboration tools for motion picture and television, born from the mandate to work from home virtually in every corner of the world. While Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) had changed the industry in 2020, it accelerated moving these core production workloads to the cloud. Per Bob Chapek (CEO, Disney), “I would say COVID-19 accelerated the rate at which we made this transition, but this transition was going to happen anyway.” Cloud has helped customers navigate this new terrain, and we have witnessed technology providers and content creators collaborating like never before to push the art of the possible. People turned to entertainment to keep their spirits high, consuming content via streaming providers or broadcasters and the media and entertainment industry delivered. This is the story of a few companies that came together to contribute to that progress, adapting to the flexibility of modular design, while focusing on the end goal of a holistic post-production workflow anywhere in the world.
