Seed Creative Tapped DigitalGlue creative.space for On-Premises Managed Storage Platform

Seed Creative, a video production company serving a variety of vertical market segments across the globe, has tapped DigitalGlue’s creative.space as their on-premises managed storage platform.

creative.space, a next-gen storage solution designed to streamline workflows and enhance productivity, empowers Seed Creative with a dependable solution that improves its storage and organization capabilities.

Confronted with the challenges of managing high volumes of footage and the need for seamless collaboration on Final Cut Pro (FCP) projects, Seed Creative sought a multi-faceted storage solution that delivered on speed, reliability, and organization.

According to Nick Golden, video producer, Seed Creative, “Finding a server that works well with FCP projects was crucial for us. We shoot on RED Digital Cinema cameras, so storage issues mount quickly. Not to mention, our clients are located all around the world, so organization is key.”

George Edmondson, owner, Seed Creative added: “There wasn’t any crazy upfront investment required to get the system up and running, which was extremely attractive and a contributing factor in our decision to go with creative.space.”

Since integrating creative.space, Seed Creative has experienced notable workflow and structural improvements in addition to financial advantages. Structurally, it is able to leverage the platform’s built-in authentication system to control client access and curate their experience, simplifying project management and enhancing overall efficiency.

“creative.space enables us to provide each of our clients with their own Space, so it makes organizing much easier,” Golden explained.

Another significant benefit is the Libraries feature, which gives Seed Creative a financial advantage and fosters client retention by providing easy access to previous projects for new edits. This not only streamlines the workflow, it removes the need for clients to seek their own solution.

“The nature of the server allows the organization and structure of creative.space to be used as a library of content, an incredible feature that keeps our clients coming back for new edits,” said Golden.

The platform’s ability to support multiple editors simultaneously has removed friction and maximized productivity by eliminating the time previously spent copying and managing media.

“The main impact on productivity is the ability for multiple editors to be connected to the server, allowing us to hand off projects seamlessly – no more passing the SSDs around the office!” Golden emphasized.

Golden highlights the software and exceptional support services as key factors in their positive experience with creative.space.

“The software as a whole is the best part by far. Its organization as well as support is what makes it so valuable,” he stated.

The dedicated customer support team at DigitalGlue has consistently met Seed Creative’s needs, resolving any challenges that arise quickly and efficiently.

“The team is very helpful, especially because we like to push things to the limits, and there are no problems they haven’t been able to solve,” Golden remarked.

Reflecting on the overall impact of creative.space, Golden added,

“creative.space has sped up our production and editing time by contributing to organizational structure like nothing else we have seen before.”

“Seed Creative’s experience with creative.space highlights the platform’s effectiveness in enhancing storage and workflow management for creative professionals,” said Sean Busby, president, DigitalGlue. “DigitalGlue remains committed to providing innovative solutions that empower production companies to achieve their full potential.”
