Case Study: Endemol Shine North America streamlines TV production with Nexsan storage solutions

Endemol Shine North America reduces man hours by 92% with Nexsan

Endemol Shine North America, a major television production company, faced a labor-intensive and costly challenge with its old videotape-based editing workflow. This process required working in low resolution and then conforming each episode at high resolution, which needed multiple editors across shifts and expensive broadcast decks. They sought a file-based workflow solution to streamline production and save time, leading them to partner with vendor Nexsan.

Nexsan provided its E-Series and Unity storage solutions as the backbone for the new file-based workflow. This allowed up to 150 simultaneous editors to access and transcode camera masters directly. The solution from Nexsan resulted in massive savings, reducing the number of man hours needed per episode by 92% and saving thousands of dollars in rental equipment, all while fortifying data protection.
