Sky News Australia: transition to a cloud-first model with AMPP (Grass Valley)
Grass Valley deploys the AMPP cloud solution on the Australian News Channel (ANC) Sky News Australia, providing journalists and production operators with browser-based editing, remote production capabilities and scalable broadcast capabilities.
AMPP replaces a legacy system with a production architecture cloud-based that allows more than 250 journalists, editors and producers collaborate through workflows browser-based. The system, now in operation, manages more than 1,500 hours of content every week through traditional and digital broadcast platforms.
Jesse Hicks, subdirector de operaciones e innovación de Sky News Australia, confirma que este movimiento ha cambiado “radicalmente” su forma de operar. “Nuestros equipos pueden acceder a las herramientas de edición desde cualquier lugar, colaborar en tiempo real y producir contenidos más rápidamente sin comprometer la calidad”, explica, remarcando que el despliegue de Grass Valley les proporciona la “flexibilidad necesaria para la producción de noticias moderna”.
El despliegue de AMMP incluye la solución Framelight X, que habilita la edición basada en navegador; Playout X, que gestiona la emisión vía cloud, así como servicios integrados de gestión de activos, ingesta y almacenamiento. In this way, journalists can create and edit content directly in a web browser, eliminating dependence on physical workstations and accelerating production workflows.
Jon Wilson, CEO of Grass Valley, takes stock of a deployment that points to a more flexible and offshore future of broadcast environments: "Carrying out a complete transformation of the newsroom together with the relocation of the headquarters is a complex challenge. ANC took a clear and strategic approach: moving to an integrated software-defined model that offers greater flexibility, scalability and resilience across its operations. This project reflects our long collaboration and our shared commitment to modernizing news operations and live production."
