Forscene Remains IBC TVs Cloud Provider of Choice

IBC TV, the official broadcaster for IBC2014, will once again use Forscene to provide its self-service syndication workflow. A Forscene server based at the RAI conference center will compress and upload material shot by the IBC TV teams during the exhibition. Participating broadcasters and IBC exhibitors will be able to access library content provided under editorial control, including rushes and daily program footage. New this year is 24-hour coverage that will be available year-round to subscribing exhibitors and news outlets. Also for the first time, IBC will use Forscene to view entries and prepare content for the IBC2014 Awards. These awards recognize how tools are used to solve real-world problems and help media organisations to be more creative, more efficient, or better able to reach audiences much as Forscene is doing for IBC.
