While trying to educate myself about Media Central I learned, that parts of it at least only seem to work with interplay (or that interplay is about to be rebranded Media Central Production?), which brings me to my next question: What exactly is interplay and what does it do.? Does Media Central offer the capability to search for custom meta data that I put into custom collums in Media Composer? When I saw a couple of videos about Media Central, and that it offers search capabilites across projects I thought this could help us in a big way. We still try our best to tag footage in the comments collum and populate every clip with custom meta data as well, but if you don't know what project you have to look in for that certain clip and meta data, you won't be able to find it. For example, if we're looking for footage of Berlin in the early 90s, we rely on our boss knowing, that we used a couple of shots of Berlin in the early 90s in a certain project, we then recover that project from external HDDs (were we archived the whole project to at some point in the past), consolidate the shots we need to our ISIS into the project we're currently working on. historic) footage that we've aquired over the years would be a huge time saver.Īt the moment our system is pretty flawed. Since we often need certain archival footage in various documentaries we were thinking that having a kind of searchable archive with every bit of archival (i.e. We're mostly editing documentaries and other non fictional formats, that rely on tons of archival footage. The production company where I work is working with 32TB of ISIS storage and 6 Media Composers. I need some help understanding Avid Interplay and Avid Media Central and can't seem to find easily understandable documentation that goes a little deeper than just telling me that it's "exciting" and "fast" and "easy".
