Object Matrix, Blackbird Team Up for Efficient Cloud Video Editing

Object Matrix has now partnered with Blackbird. The partnership includes the integration of Object Matrix’s MatrixStore, the on-prem and cloud storage platform, with Blackbird, the world’s fastest, most powerful professional cloud video editing and publishing platform.

“This year has been challenging for many media companies,” says Jonathan Morgan, CEO, Object Matrix. “Tools that enable remote working within the cloud are more important than ever, enabling video teams to work effectively, no matter where they are based. Integrating with Blackbird will give our customers true cloud native video editing and publishing capabilities, enabling them to access, enrich and distribute their content faster and at a much lower total cost of ownership.”

Using Blackbird’s browser-based editing toolset, production teams can easily create clips, highlights and longer form content, even with limited bandwidth. By integrating with MatrixStore, organisations are able to keep content secure and protected, whilst ensuring easy access and discoverability at all times. Blackbird also enables media assets to be seamlessly published in high quality outputs to multiple digital channels including social, OTT and web as well as passed back to MatrixStore.

“Our goal of making Blackbird fully interoperable with other best-of-breed solutions continues at pace,” says Blackbird CEO, Ian McDonough. “By pairing our solution with MatrixStore, we can ensure our customers stay in control of their entire archive. MatrixStore makes protecting, finding and sharing content easier than ever, empowering creativity and collaboration between global teams.”
