AES Convention 135 · Paper 118 · October 2013
Abstract
The Sync-AV workflow tool eases the sorting and synchronization of video and audio footage without the need for expensive special hardware. It supports pre-production, shooting and post-production. It consists of these elements: a script-information and metadata-gathering web app that’s connected to a server database; a local import client that manages the footage ingest and sorts the files together; the client also takes care of the synchronization of the video that contains audio and separately recorded audio files and it renames the files and implements the metadata; and the client uploads this synchronized preview files to our server so they can be shown at our web app. This e-Brief shows the current development and some specific solutions of Sync-AV.
