Case Study: Sparrow Film Project achieves flawless online entries with Digital Pigeon

How Sparrow Film Project uses Digital Pigeon for flawless online entries

Sparrow Film Project, an annual local filmmaking competition run by NYC studio Rampant, faced growing numbers of large video submissions and needed a fast, reliable way to collect and manage entries. After struggling with slow, unreliable transfers from Dropbox and Hightail—including daily production transfers of 30–40 GB—the organizers looked for a dedicated file-transfer solution and turned to Digital Pigeon.

Digital Pigeon was implemented to handle both day-to-day production moves and all Sparrow Film Project submissions, offering fast transfer speeds, robust infrastructure, real-time tracking and notifications, activity logs, delivery receipts and feedback tools. The result: timely, dependable uploads and downloads that eliminated previous transfer issues, reduced stress around deadlines, and gave organizers confidence that entries were received and processed.
