ATOMOS CONNECT

SHOGUN CONNECT

The Company is pleased also to announce a partnership with Frame.io which sees its new devices integrate with Frame.io’s Camera to Cloud (C2C). Frame.io (an Adobe company) is a leading video production collaboration platform, enabling video production teams to collaborate remotely on the same project. C2C allows real time transfer of footage directly from the camera to a collaborator, such as a director or editor, in another location. Since Atomos’ devices work seamlessly with a wide range of cameras, this partnership helps Frame.io Camera to Cloud to reach many more content creators. In turn, Frame.io Camera to Cloud customers are incentivised to purchase Atomos’ connected devices to further streamline their video production.

Adobe recently announced that access to Frame.io will be bundled with Adobe Premiere, at no additional cost. Premiere is part of Adobe’s Creative Cloud business which was recently estimated to have 26 million paid users.

Atomos Cloud Studio

Atomos also announces Atomos Cloud Studio, a collection of cloud-based video production tools and services which will be made available to Atomos customers via tiered subscription plans. Atomos Cloud Studio has been developed in partnership with UK based software company, MAVIS.

Atomos Cloud Studio will launch new cloud-based live and instant video production services:

  • ATOMOS Capture-to-cloud and Video Streaming for remote live video previewing and streaming, as well as cloud-based collaboration and sharing. There will be several subscription plans priced up to around USD 10 per month

  • ATOMOS Live Production is a cloud-based multicamera switching and production solution for live events and live streaming. There will be subscription plans for live production; with premium plans at around USD 30 per month and professional plans that will be charged hourly

Example Use Cases

ATOMOS Capture-to-cloud provides a range of features to solve problems for users of the service, for example:

  • Streaming – stream recorded or live footage from an ATOMOS device direct to one or more social platforms

  • File Sharing – send files directly from an ATOMOS device to an online storage provider, e.g., Dropbox

  • Remote Live View – a director or client, at home in New York, views the live production shoot in Melbourne on their mobile device/tablet, through AppleTV or through an ATOMOS device

Our team has been developing a new unified technology platform known as ‘Series 2’ for 18 months. It is gratifying to see the first results of that hard work in these two new ground-breaking devices. One of the key features of the new platform is the network-connectivity it enables, and it is exciting to be able to leverage that through partnerships with Frame.io and MAVIS to offer content creators a range of new production tools and services. Atomos has always enjoyed a strong reputation for delivering highly dependable tools for content creators at the point of capture. The cloud-based solutions will ensure that Atomos continues to streamline our users’ experience, not just on set, but through the entire production and creative process”
