With cloud applications and services now widely available, film and video professionals have all the tools they need to work together on centralized platforms and effectively collaborate across separate desktop, web, and mobile devices. In Film and Video Production in the Cloud, veteran video production consultant Jack James provides a practical guide to cloud processes, concepts, and workflows as they relate to the most widely used cloud applications in the industry. Topics discussed include the benefits of cloud storage, cloud-based production and postproduction pipelines, project and asset management, distribution and archiving, budget and security considerations, and crowdsourcing.

This book will allow readers to:

* Harness cloud-based tools and processes to enhance your film and video production pipeline and help your creative team collaborate effectively across separate desktop, web, and mobile devices;

* Discover the benefits of cloud-based film and video production, as well as key approaches to budgeting and planning, project and asset management, distribution and archiving, security considerations, and crowdsourcing in the cloud;

* Learn how to apply fundamental cloud methodologies and best practices to the most widely used cloud services and applications in the industry, including Adobe Creative Cloud, Autodesk A360, Avid Media Composer Cloud, Asana, Basecamp, and Shotgun.

Rezensionen / Stimmen

"As always, Jack has a three dimensional understanding of a subject that, until he explains it, you are left thinking 'Why didn't I see it like that?' He makes an extraordinary complex subject seem so simple with an understanding of how networked remote systems or the Cloud has become known and how it can work for you on your production. Jack's expertise is a great filter for the myths a lot of people talk on this subject, separating fact from fiction, telling you how it is and how it will work. A prefect read if you ever wondered how the Cloud could help your project."

- Jon Thompson, FBKS Producer Post Production, Disney, BBC, Earth (2007)

"It offers a decent and current introduction to what 'the Cloud' is, how it works and how it can help productions in very practical ways."

- Jonny Elwyn
