Powerful ‘Media Factory’ Toolset

Amberfin's iCR toolset covers almost every aspect of commercial content production, from ingest through to delivery. This frees up creative video and audio post production tools - and the creative staff who operate them - from ‘heavy lifting’ tasks like bulk tape ingest or multi version delivery. iCR’s range of template tools and QC tools also frees up staff from repetitive labour intensive manual processes and reduces expensive mistakes caused by operator error.
