Case Study: Skyhigh TV automates rushes logging with Amberscript

Skyhigh TV cuts 2-hour interview logging from 10 hours to 20 minutes with Amberscript

Skyhigh TV, a leading Dutch TV production company, faced a significant challenge in the time-consuming process of logging raw video footage. This task, which involved transcribing conversations and marking scenes from hundreds of hours of rushes, was traditionally done by human loggers and took an immense amount of time and operational effort to manage. To automate this process, Skyhigh TV turned to Amberscript and its automated speech recognition (ASR) service.

By implementing Amberscript, the production company automated the transcription process, receiving timestamped transcripts with speaker distinction within minutes. This solution drastically reduced the time needed for logging; a two-hour interview that once took 10 hours to transcribe now only requires about 20 minutes of human adjustment. The results included saving hundreds of hours of work, relieving producers from operational management, and freeing up time to focus on creating higher-quality TV programs.
