Front Porch Digital has announced that its strategic relationships
with Ascent Media Network Services (AMNS) and its systems integration
arm AF Associates (AFA) have resulted in three new Asian broadcast
accounts.
In May, Front Porch Digital had announced a global strategic relationship
with AFA to jointly create integrated solutions around Front Porch's
archive management and transcoding products and deploy them throughout
the world. The Front Porch strategic partnership with AFA was expanded
to include AMNS which is a part of the Ascent Media Group.
Front Porch Digital claims to be transforming the digital world
by developing software and services that convert audio, video, images,
text and data into digital formats. These enable searching, browsing,
editing, storage and on-demand delivery of content in nearly any
other digital format through a single capture.
Known for engineering the Future of Television, AFA provides engineering
consultation and turnkey systems solutions for the broadcast, cable,
entertainment, satellite, production/post production and corporate
video industries. AMNS specialises in network origination, video
distribution and post-production services
These organisations will now work together on new installations
at AMNS' Singapore facility in support of three global media brands
based in the US. Front Porch will deploy its DIVArchive management
tool in each client installation. It claims that its BitScream transcoding
application is also under consideration for future purchase. A strong
example of AMNS' end-to-end services set, AFA has designed and will
install a turnkey solution to meet the end customer requirements,
and AMNS will provide and operate the broadcast services.
