Proxy Workflows for a Secure Remote Editing Future

Stephen Tallamy

Using lower-resolution proxy files for video production has been an option for a number of years; however, advancements in technology, remote working demands, and a drive toward remote production and usage of cloud technologies have opened up a range of new possibilities. Modern proxy workflows depend on a set of underlying technologies to provide a seamless, secure, and productive user experience. The article will identify enablers for remote production and provide concrete examples to illustrate how media professionals: 1) overcome challenges of collaborating with high-resolution footage; 2) control access to valuable original footage; and 3) create unique renditions to simplify workflows and increase traceability.
