Marquis Launches Project

Enabling digital media users to achieve maximum efficiencies
from workflow processes remains a focus for Marquis...

arquis Broadcast, experts in
content workflows and media
integration software, specialises in
moving media. The company has
announced that it is to launch Project
Parking Version 4 at NAB 2015. Project
Parking, Marquis' popular archive
and retrieve solution, has now been
developed to become a complete Avid
storage management solution, and it
will be shown for the first time at NAB
in April.
"Parking has proved popular with
broadcasters and post houses across
the world to manage Avid projects."
confirms Chris Steele, Managing
Director, Marquis Broadcast. "Our
original solution identified how space
was used, removed unused and
duplicate media, archived projects,
and moved projects with media to
other storage or systems. Projects
could also be merged from other
systems without media duplication.

The enhanced Project Parking Version
4 now does this, and more! It has
become a complete Avid storage
management solution, monitoring
how media storage is used, regularly
reporting on usage, showing usage
over time, plus archiving projects, and
executing analysis in the background.
"Now Project Parking Version 4 will
give facilities total control to manage
their edit storage." explains Steele.
"Network usage is optimised by
dynamically testing the network before
archiving, plus the solution's ability to
archive multiple projects to a single
archive set, will improve efficiency,
while notifications are provided by
SMS or email."
Also at NAB, Marquis will launch a
host of new storage analysis tools,
including Solo Parking for standalone
Avid edit workstations, Unify Parking
for copying projects onto shared
central storage, Project Parking

Server, which runs in the
