Abstract: This paper introduces technology that allows for existing and newly-created metadata to be assigned to content as it is captured resulting in enhanced workflows with minimal impact on existing operations. Content becomes more accessible to people working on the production, using a local network that links cameras, laptops and mobile devices. This is achieved by providing role-specific web applications for navigating content using the metadata that has been assigned to it. The result is improved access to content during production and more efficient post production. This technology has been developed following comprehensive studies of broadcasters' operational workflows. This includes an understanding of the activities of production staff and areas where the use of metadata technology can enhance file-based workflows. Results and feedback from initial trials of this technology with production companies are described in the paper and we demonstrate that significant time savings can be achieved.
