Case Study: Lifetime Networks achieves fast, secure bi-coastal HD/SD transfers and reduced post-production time with Signiant

Lifetime Networks Moves HD and SD Content Cross Country with Signiant

Lifetime Networks, a multi‑media company with production split between New York and a post‑production facility in Century City (nearly 3,000 miles apart), needed a faster, more secure way to move bandwidth‑intensive HD and SD assets and to centrally schedule and track transfers while integrating with its Avid editing tools.

Lifetime implemented Signiant Content Distribution Management to accelerate, automate and secure file movement, smartly allocate bandwidth and prioritize time‑sensitive files, and virtualize the bi‑coastal workflow. The result: real‑time transfers that are far faster and cheaper than shipping tapes or using real‑time circuits, reduced post‑production time and costs, seamless Avid integration, and the ability to move dozens of promos daily (100+ per week) with plans to exceed 100 GB per day.
