Case Study: Fox Sports achieves faster live sports highlight creation with AWS Elemental

Fox Sports turns live highlights into vertical video in 20–30 seconds with AWS Elemental

Fox Sports faced the challenge of needing to quickly deliver vertical video highlights to social media platforms from hundreds of live sports broadcasts. Manually clipping and reformatting these key moments was resource-intensive, causing missed opportunities to engage fans. They worked with AWS to leverage AWS Elemental Inference and other AWS Elemental services to automate this process.

AWS implemented a solution using AWS Elemental Inference to automatically detect key moments in a live broadcast and reformat them for vertical social platforms within seconds. This automated, event-driven pipeline, integrated with a custom web portal, collapsed the traditional multi-step workflow into a single experience. The result allowed Fox Sports editors to review, edit, and distribute social-ready content much faster, unlocking content that was previously too costly to produce at scale.
