ALT Systems Helps the Giants Expand Use of Quantum’s CatDV Media Asset Management System
ALT Systems announced that it is helping the San Francisco Giants streamline the team’s post-production workflow by leveraging the power and flexibility of Quantum’s CatDV Media Asset Management (MAM) system.
The team’s in-house media group, San Francisco Giants Productions, is a prolific producer of content for fan and business partner engagement. Until recently, SFG relied on a separate Production Asset Management (PAM) system to track post-production media and metadata. ALT Systems managed migration of PAM metadata and associated media to a CatDV MAM system, which will now serves as the reference point for media throughout the post-production lifecycle.
“CatDV is instrumental in orchestrating the post-production workflow at the Giants – from the camera card, through editorial, archive, and distribution,” said Sig Knapstad, ALT Systems’ Chief Technology Officer. Use of uniform ingest and transcoding processes, and a flexible but effective editorial workflow give the team’s producers and editors a single source of truth for current day assets and for the Giants Legacy Project media collection.”
According to Quantum Business Development Manager Jeremy Strootman, “Quantum’s CatDV is a leading MAM solution for Major League Baseball teams and scores of professional sports organizations. Its powerful but intuitive media-optimized database and automated Artificial Intelligence analysis tools make it a natural choice for the fast-paced world of sports.”
ALT Systems has a longstanding technology partnership with the Giants and developed the team’s multi-year technology roadmap culminating with use of CatDV as the go-to asset management platform.
