MovieLabs Industries welcomes Signiant as a new member
In an exciting development for the media industry, Signiant has announced its membership in the MovieLabs Industry Forum. This collaboration aims to meet the challenges of tomorrow's media landscape and advance cutting-edge technologies.
Richard Berger, CEO of MovieLabs, expressed his pleasure about Signiant joining the forum, stating that the company's participation will contribute significantly to the future of media creation. Signiant's CTO, Ian Hamilton, shared that the company has been implementing many of the core principles of the MovieLabs 2030 Vision for years.
The MovieLabs Industry Forum encourages collaboration on defining common industry goals and developing new standards. A central focus of the forum is the MovieLabs 2030 Vision, which outlines key principles for transforming the media production landscape.
The key principles include Software-Defined Workflows (SDW), Interoperability and Communication, Security with Zero Trust Architecture, and Cloud-Centric Production.
Software-Defined Workflows (SDW) aim to automate and delegate repetitive tasks to software processes, freeing creative talent for storytelling. This approach enables dynamic, flexible workflows that can be easily modified to improve production efficiency.
Interoperability and Communication involve developing standardized language and ontologies for media creation to ensure effective communication across departments and regions, despite diverse terms and workflows.
Security with Zero Trust Architecture emphasizes intrinsic security measures that protect content, assets, and workflows regardless of infrastructure. This approach includes identity management, authentication, least-privilege authorization, and scalable, adaptable defenses against evolving threats.
Cloud-Centric Production moves production workflows into cloud environments to leverage scalability and flexibility while maintaining creative freedom and efficient resource use.
Signiant's SaaS platform secures Internet connections to customer storage and facilitates collaboration and data exchange, making it a valuable addition to the MovieLabs Industry Forum. The company has also published a paper sharing its point of view and commentary informed by its production and post-production supply chain experience.
MovieLabs, founded by major Hollywood studios, looks forward to collaborating with Signiant on establishing common, interoperable solutions. The collaboration between MovieLabs and Signiant is a significant step towards transforming the media production landscape, making it more agile, efficient, and secure.
