Case Study: Atom Tickets achieves faster, scalable, high-quality media delivery with Cloudinary

Atom Tickets Steals the Show with Dynamic Media Transformation

Atom Tickets, a social movie-ticketing app and website based in Santa Monica, faced growing media-management challenges as it expanded from mobile-only to web and third-party sites. The company needed a way to deliver high-fidelity images, animated stills and trailer videos across multiple touchpoints and partners (including Regal) without slowing publishing, increasing manual handoffs, or spiking bandwidth and costs.

By adopting Cloudinary as a single media platform and automating ingestion (including nightly builds, S3 backups, and API uploads), Atom Tickets now performs dynamic image and video transformations, enforces optimal formats/quality per device, and gives teams a single source of truth. The result: faster, more autonomous content publishing, smoother video playback with lower bandwidth consumption, fewer manual workflows, and a scalable, future-proof media stack that maintains high-quality visual experiences.
