Christy’s Embraces Avid Enterprise Software Subscription to Supply Editing Resources Across Hollywood
August 17 2021 - 8:30AM
Today Avid (NASDAQ: AVID) proudly announced that post-production
rental provider Christy’s Editorial has selected a multiyear
subscription licensing agreement for 500 seats of Media Composer |
Enterprise video editing software. With its migration from
perpetual software licenses, Christy’s achieves easier and more
efficient delivery of the editing tool specified by the majority of
its premier client base.
Family owned and operated for more than 50 years, Christy’s has
built a legendary reputation for individualized service and
technological innovation in support of Hollywood’s film and
television creative community. Production companies, studios and
post houses depend on Christy’s to configure, maintain and service
end-to-end post-production workflows and resources, from video
editing bays and near-line storage to long-term content
archiving.
On an average day, Christy’s supports hundreds of editors
simultaneously working on site in its 60,000 sq. ft. facility and
on clients’ production locations, relying on Media Composer® and
petabytes of Avid NEXIS® secure shared storage in their workflows.
Media Composer software licensing by subscription enables Christy’s
to more efficiently predict and provision resources for its
demanding user base, while also catering to the sharp rise in
remote collaboration among editing teams that are geographically
spread apart.
Christy’s VP J.J. Nigro commented, “Creators turn to Christy’s
so they can keep their focus on turning out their absolute best
stories without distractions. As much as we’ve grown and evolved,
our model works because we’ve built a superior offering around
uncompromising service that establishes trust and never breaks it.
Our core of Avid technology backs us up every step of the way and
now subscription is making it easier for us be there for clients
whenever and however they need to work.”
Tom Cordiner, Chief Revenue Officer, Avid, commented, “Christy’s
is at the top of their game in giving outstanding service to many
of the world’s most celebrated creators. With subscription access
to our tools, Avid is on a mission to help more partners like
Christy’s to break new ground in how they deliver excellence to the
creative community.”
