Game-Changer

If we're lucky a few times a year we'll see something that will make a significant difference in the way we do business -- that will by its very usefulness change the game. The best example of this for me is 15 years ago when we added non-linear editing, and a year later when we added an early version of After Effects. The on-going evolution of both of these continues to change and improve our business. This year I can state without equivocation a new game changer is on the scene. It's called Media Batch.

Media Batch isn't a new NLE, graphics package or even a piece of hardware. Instead it is a dramatic new way of communicating and interacting with clients, remote workers and sub-contractors. Media Batch is a front-end server and replacement for FTP sites, providing an extremely simple means for posting, viewing and commenting on video (as well as many other forms of media) online. After just a couple of weeks of using it we can't imagine not having it around. We've also been able to cut way back on the FedEx-ing of work in progress disks. That alone will pay for Media Batch in a very short time.

I'm planning on writing a more complete review of Media Batch when I get through some of our current projects. But don't wait on this to learn more. Go to:

Watch the demos. See if you don't agree that this is indeed a game-changer.
