Matech breaks into Vietnam s film industry with its first deal

13/12/2012

The leading provider of Media Asset Management solutions will digitize all of Vietnam Television Film Center's workflows with an advanced digital archiving solution

Masstech has further expanded its reach into Asia with the signing of its first deal in Vietnam with the Vietnam Television Film Center (VFC) to digitally archive all its film productions. The installation of Masstech's Emerald LE solution with integration to Avid's Interplay ISIS is currently underway at VFC's Hanoi facility.

Vietnam Television Film Center, a film production company owned by Vietnam Television, the national television broadcaster for Vietnam, produces made-for-television movies and ministries. Only about 30 percent of its entertainment programming shown on VTV is made locally. The rest is imported and dubbed in Vietnamese. Shows including Korean and Chinese serial melodramas are the mainstay of nightly programming on VTV3.

Currently, VFC has in place an Avid Interplay production system for its drama, television series productions. Masstech integrates to Avid Interplay to provide digital archiving for their ever growing storage demands and preserves VFC's DV50 (Standard Definition) and DNxHD120 (High Definition) content on LTO-5 data tape. The new system features Emerald's mini-MAM content management and broadcast hierarchical storage management (HSM) to control dual (two) Spectra T50e libraries, each with 50 slots. This unique solution is powered by an IBM x3650 M3 server platform with internal cache and high performance fibre channel connectivity to the libraries. Emerald provides content producers like VFC with an unlimited storage license for no ongoing capacity fees for disk or tape storage connections.

Brad Redwood, Vice President of International Sales and Marketing at Masstech said: We congratulate the Vietnam Television Film Centre and look forward to enhancing their workflow with advanced digital archiving.

Masstech's ownership of the entire solution delivers sophisticated Avid integration on an affordable integrated platform. Broadcasters, Editors, music production and other creative professionals can utilize Emerald to enhance their workflow and output.

Digitcast, a dealer for Masstech operating out of Singapore, closed the deal with VFC. Their knowledgeable team serves the growing demand from Asian broadcasters for MAM, digital archiving and content management by introducing powerful and affordable archiving solutions like Emerald LE into the Asian market.

Masstech has the solutions our customers are looking for. Combined with our local knowledge and technical expertise, products like Emerald enable the burgeoning Vietnamese film industry to preserve their local productions and compete on a global scale, said Anthony Vu, Operations Manager at Digicast.
