Nordic Light gets green light from Europe

Although technology is increasingly user-friendly and accessible, managing large amounts of audiovisual material remains a challenge. This difficulty is even greater when different parties work together on the same production.

Shorten turnaround time

During this project, we will set up an online application that is capable of supporting the different actors throughout the production processes of audiovisual media. The primary goal is to reduce the cycle time of the production by avoiding manual processing of information. Then again, based on a careful selection of open standards, we intend to deploy a system that is genuinely designed for collaborative production and geographically distributed operations.  NordicLight is built based on a technology originally developed by VRT Medialab.
