Case Study: VFX Legion achieves fast, reliable terabyte-scale file transfers with Signiant's Media Shuttle

VFX Legion blows up the model with Media Shuttle

VFX Legion is a remote visual effects studio that taps a global pool of artists while running central production from Burbank. As their volume of large, time-sensitive media files and number of remote contributors grew, traditional TCP-based transfers (like FTP) and an earlier accelerated solution proved unreliable, insecure, and hard to manage.

They switched to Signiant’s cloud-native Media Shuttle after a brief trial; it deployed in a day, required no extra client installs, and provided fast, reliable, and more secure UDP-based transfers plus easy portal administration. Today Media Shuttle moves multiple terabytes monthly for VFX Legion, reduced costs and headaches, and has enabled the company to take on larger projects and scale its remote workflow.
