Studio Network Solutions (SNS), will feature the public beta version of its Postmap software at IBC.
Postmap, the company's new search and management software for post-production workgroups, locates folders and files stored locally, remotely, offline or online. Users can create and attach enhanced metadata to describe and classify specific files and folders to reduce search times, share production notes and organize customized files. The capability to find, catalogue and manage files is a post-production solution developed to fill the void between OS-native search tools and Digital Asset Management applications
. The software is designed for both Mac OS and Windows operating systems.
Postmap offers a flexible platform of utilities that can be easily tailored to the needs of creative workgroups of all sizes. The suite of features includes:
Scan/Search -- capabilities to schedule and selectively scan the contents of SANs, file servers, FireWire/USB disks, CDs and DVDs.
Enhanced Metadata –- capability to build customized templates (digital forms) including free text fields, date fields, keywords, hyperlinks, and more.
Workflow -– extends the enhanced metadata feature to enable a company to define the steps in "workflow scenarios" allowing users to set the status of a project file as it progresses through a custom workflow.
