BAFTA Electron & High-Speed Transcoding

Media management, processing, and delivery – all in one solution

About Electron

What’s Included

Electron offers a cutting-edge digital asset management service for visual arts and media professionals, enabling transcoding and sharing of videos from a single, intuitively designed platform accessible anywhere. Supporting HLS streaming and high-speed transcoding tailored for uploads to our awards system Nucleus, Electron can transcode one hour of film into three resolutions in under five minutes—a task that typically takes an hour using other systems. It doesn’t even increase the costs.

Designed with an intuitive user interface, which means it’s really simple to use, Electron also supports stills, audio and PDF files and allows external uploads straight into your file system via a link (no log-in required).

Electron Clients

“The optimisation of content delivery takes expertise. BAFTA Electron simplifies the process to give non-expert users the toolset to create and share optimised content – digital video tailored for use.”
Film London
“BAFTA’s Electron system is designed with the footage researcher in mind, and provides a one-stop shop for the storage, transcoding and distribution of footage files. Using cloud-based technologies it removes the need for local downloads and file structures, and its tracking and commenting systems ensure that researchers and their clients are always in the loop about what’s been found and viewed.”
Focal International
“I use BAFTA Electron as it effectively combines the functions of both Vimeo and WeTransfer in one neat package whilst adding powerful encoding tools into the bargain.”
BAFTA
“BAFTA Electron is a simple, reliable and easy-to-navigate cloud-based media management system that has been integral during the preparation period of our debut feature film ZERO. We look forward to using the system throughout the production, post-production and exhibition stages of the film.”
