Channel One Implements Dalet's Enterprise MAM Technology
by | Sep 12, 2008 - 12:07:59 PM
Channel One has implemented Dalet Enterprise Edition, digitalizing their
large-scale news operation with Dalet’s enterprise asset management technology.
With 95% market coverage in Russian speaking countries, Channel One is one of
the largest Russian broadcasters employing over 2000 people (800 in News),
covering 6 time zones with 8 thematic channels distributed over terrestrial and
satellite channels. The Dalet Enterprise Edition deployment migrated the
massive Channel One news operation from an in-house developed tape-based system
to a completely digital workflow facilitating integration with EVS production
systems.
“This is where Dalet excels, large-scale migrations and custom workflows that
enable broadcasters to achieve digital convergence,” comments Stephane
Schlayen, Chief Operating Officer, Dalet SA. “We are very proud to be a key
player in the Channel One transformation; providing them an enterprise platform
that will scale to support the ever growing list of new delivery channels.”
“The Dalet Enterprise Edition system has allowed us to custom design a workflow
incorporating the best of open IT standards and broadcast production
technology,” comments Anton Philippov, Director Deputy of Information Services
Channel One. “Equally as important was the delivery of the system. Dalet’s
Professional Services and their business partner OKNO TV team really shined
here. Their change management methodology was key to moving our massive
operation from a cluttered analog process that limited sharing and re-use of
content to a highly efficient digital workflow enabling realtime collaboration
and media sharing.”
Dalet Professional Services worked closely with Business Partner OKNO TV to
design a migration plan that digitalized the entire news production process for
Channel One’s two news studios. At the core of the new installation is the
DaletPlus media asset management platform for expertly managing metadata across
the editorial production process. Dalet logging, search tools, planning and
rundown management features are built into DaletPlus and integrate with the EVS
Clean Edit production suite and playout servers for a seamless digital workflow
from ingest to playout.
