Where the ELEMENTS ONE supplements the
cloud is through the ELEMENTS Media Library. We use the automation package to back up up our Flames. We can view dailies, send material to clients and communicate cuts. There’s a proprietary media player within the Media Library that allows us to collaboratively view media and sequences and communicate changes back and forward. We have the ability to mark-up specific frames with timecode markers to import into Adobe Premiere or to highlight areas within the frames for online and graphics. All of this both on-premises and remotely. We have had directors create rough cut material
and make selects with the Media Library remotely. The XML will just open up in Premiere and we can start cutting. This allows us to deliver post projects to anyone in the world. We can run bash scripts on the Media Library
and remotely log into our Flames and run scripts to create project archives within the ELEMENTS ONE. All of this without having to manually make archives or duplicate the drives off the Flames every night. It just runs for a couple of hours at midnight and you can view a log and ensure it’s all running smoothly. It will also create an error

message if there’s a problem. I’m keen to move more workflows up to the cloud as and when we need to for reasons including servicing, performance and price as well as taking into account where our clients work and where the best artists might be. A big door has opened up where we can now work with top quality artists anywhere in the world and this gives us instant scalability based on project. Cloud storage is very
likely to replace Near Line storage rather than Tier One in the near future. Although the ELEMENTS ONE isn’t in the public
cloud, it does allow the remote operator to make selections and run rough cuts remotely without the need to spin up cloud resources or take machines home. We can be more flexible in the way we invest now that low performance tasks can be scaled up in the cloud. While for high performance we can scale up for the extra horsepower, for example rendering. It’s all about scalability. For Wordley, it makes the most sense to keep
the main core of what we do locally - on premises - for security and keeping a handle on how much we actually spend, while always having access to that cloud burst ability when we need it.
