Opis

In this text the benefits of applying asset management systems to the creation of content are presented in terms of increased efficiency and the lowering of costs. The book also demystifies the underlying technologies involved and the processes employed in setting up a media asset management system.

Recenzje

"Austerberry does a remarkable job of showing the way forward to the largest potential users of such systems, while still making it very clear how education and training will move during the next decade or so...all in twenty well written, well illustrated and well indexed chapters...the book is certainly not one that will sit unread on your shelf." - British Journal of Educational Technology

The book is highly recommended for both beginners and more advanced readers, alrhough perhaps not for engineers who are involved in digital asset management on a daily basis. The book is up-to-date, informative, relevant, comprehensive and accurate.-European Broadcasting Union, January 2007
