Endemol
Broadcast
reports:
"Endemol is using web-based editing and logging tools from Forbidden Technologies to speed up production on two of its factual shows ...
rushes [are] uploaded to Forbidden's servers and access provided via a web-browser.
This enables production teams based anywhere in the world to monitor and log footage and do rough cut edits during location shoots.
Endemol production executive Susan King said the web-based workflow had been a real eye opener:
‘With filming in LA, our UK-based producer saved many hours of travelling by providing editorial input via FORscene throughout the actual filming period’".
