Re: [MCN-L] Managing and storing video content for website

[Keir Winesmith]

Hi Matt

We've got a lot of video as texture in on sfmoma.org, on the homepage and 
exhibition pages for example, and at the time we were developing it, a service 
like Brightcove made that possible. I'd like to be able to replace it, however 
it's so baked into our workflows and content syndication that we're staying 
with it.

If we decided today, I think we'd look elsewhere.

Keir

Like SFMOMA, I've used Brightcove before, but I think the reasons to do so are 
getting really skinny ... it's super expensive and only does a bit more than a 
$20/month Vimeo Pro account (as far as I know).

Keir, do you think if you made the decision today, you would go with 
Brightcove? Why?

Thanks!

Re: [MCN-L] Managing and storing video content for website

[Lavatelli, Anna C.]

To throw in my two cents–
When building on the ArtBabble software for a conservation video project we had 
great success with Amazon S3s, definitely a great way to go if you’re 
self-hosting. As for the MCA website, we have been using Vimeo for distribution 
via an accessible JS player. The player is designed in our visual identity 
giving the appearance of native content, and we’ve been quite happy with 
affordability and performance (they seem to have gotten through the playback 
bugs they suffered from last year).

Best,
Anna

So we don?t manage a museum website but we do manage 1000?s of audio and
video clips at My Tours. We use Amazon s3
<https://aws.amazon.com/s3/?nc2=h_m1> for storage (Backed up to Backblaze B2
<https://www.backblaze.com/b2/cloud-storage.html>) and Amazon Elastic
Transcoder <https://aws.amazon.com/elastictranscoder/?nc2=h_m1> for
converting the source content into different formats (streaming, HD and SD
download, etc.).

We also use Amazon CloudFront <https://aws.amazon.com/cloudfront/?nc2=h_m1>
as the CDN to serve it all up. You can hook it all up so that as soon as
you drop the source file into S3 the ElasticTranscoder does its thing so
not a lot of set up required.

Hi Lisa

We use Brightcove as our video CDN, and in-page player for videos on

We put made-for-YouTube videos on YouTube.

We store non-public video, b-roll, etc. on our DAMS (NetX).

Hope that helps.
