theibcdaily Kayak makes IBC splash
Digital Rapids By Carolyn Giardina
The new Kayak workflow platform from Digital Rapids is making its European debut. Kayak has been developed to enable media organisations to design, deploy and manage customised workflows for the expanding multi-screen media landscape.
“Unlike workflow approaches that simply orchestrate between separate applications across multiple workflow stages, Kayak is built on a philosophy of fine- grained modularity with technologies as components, from media-specific functions to business-oriented functionality.
This approach is designed to provide greater control and efficiency while making integrating new or emerging technologies faster and easier for our customers,” said Brick Eksten, president and CEO of Digital Rapids.
Components includes Digital Rapids technology and third- party tools. This open, component-based approach, Digital Rapids believes, not only offers flexibility to customise workflows, but also provide control over technology costs and provisioning, as users deploy only precisely the technologies they actually need for their specific workflows. Kayak is available as a workflow design and

MSE Intel-A-Jib goes Lite
Matthews Studio Equipment By David Fox
Following on from its successful Intel-A-Jib introduced two years ago, MSE has unveiled the Intel-A-
Jib Lite, for lighter weight cameras (up to 9kg), small spaces and remote locations where carry weight is a factor. The new jib weighs 18kg and is smaller, with a reach of 244cm. It “will have the same two-minute set up without any tools and X-beam construction as its big
brother,” said Robert Kulesh, VP of marketing and sales for Matthews Studio Equipment.
The jib arms are built from extruded X-Box aluminium, which greatly reduces torquing and sway of the arm. The Intel-A-Jib Lite mounts on a 100mm bowl tripod and the
duck bill will accept a
wide variety of camera mounts. 11.G71

The company says that the latest version allows users to manage all processes within the global production environment - from editing through post

With the NETIA CMS, users can connect all of their partners and vendors within a single production ecosystem, simplifying the sharing and managing of media assets. The latest version of the CMS includes enriched
features within its metadata management module, and its indexing and
segmentation functionalities, while the new, enhanced GUI allows a greater number of fields to be personalised. In order to automate the description of audio and video content, NETIA CMS interfaces with third-party speech-to-text transcription systems. A multilingual thesaurus module available
in this new CMS release ensures there are a wide range of possibilities for describing content very precisely, in turn making it easier for users to access and retrieve specific content. The CMS also includes an enhanced administration application that is said to further simplify system management. 1.A29
