speed, reliability, ease of use, and ability to handle any file size meant it quickly became HCK\u2019s go-to file transfer tool. \u201cWe use it for everything,\u201d says Lynch.<\/span><\/p>\n HCK\u2019s day-to-day finishing workflows involve 2K, 4K, and even higher resolution files<\/a> in various formats and codecs<\/a>, including ProRes HQ<\/a>, MXF, DNX HD, DNX, HQX, DNX HR, H264, and MPEG4. The company\u2019s colorists use Adobe Premiere Pro<\/a>, Avid, and DaVinci Resolve, and Lynch estimates around 90 percent of all files they work on are sent through MASV.<\/span><\/p>\n Each HCK project gets its own <\/span>MASV Portal<\/span><\/a>. Every master video file is immediately uploaded to MASV, Lynch explains, then shared with a minimum of two people and the producer.<\/span><\/p>\n And as is the case in the fast-paced world of post-production, sometimes recipients forget to download files before the package expiry date. In that event, MASV\u2019s <\/span>Extended Storage<\/span><\/a> allows HCK to easily keep files in the cloud for months at a time just in case they need to fire it off again.<\/span><\/p>\n HCK also occasionally sends what Lynch calls \u201cpatch files\u201d to quality control (QC) partners for fixing small mistakes in any finalized files, a process that can require several transfers.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cSo at any one time, any project could be delivered four or five times, depending on the QC results,\u201d she says.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_cta title=”Make the Switch to MASV” button_url=”https:\/\/app.massive.io\/en\/signup” button_text=”Get Started” module_class=”starttrial” _builder_version=”4.14.7″ _module_preset=”default” header_level=”h5″ header_font=”||||||||” header_font_size=”27px” header_line_height=”1.3em” background_color=”#202332″ background_color_gradient_start=”#3d72e7″ background_color_gradient_end=”#202332″ background_color_gradient_direction=”206deg” custom_button=”on” button_text_color=”#FFFFFF” button_bg_use_color_gradient=”on” button_bg_color_gradient_start=”#3d72e7″ button_bg_color_gradient_end=”#53a0fe” button_bg_color_gradient_direction=”293deg” button_border_width=”0px” button_border_radius=”50px” button_use_icon=”off” button_custom_padding=”10px|42px|10px|42px|true|true” custom_margin=”||20px||false|false” link_option_url=”https:\/\/app.massive.io\/en\/signup” border_width_top=”10px” border_color_top=”#3d72e7″ border_color_left=”#3d72e7″ box_shadow_style=”preset2″ box_shadow_horizontal=”-13px” box_shadow_style_button=”preset1″ locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” button_border_width__hover_enabled=”on|hover” button_custom_padding__hover_enabled=”on|hover” button_custom_padding__hover=”|2em|||false|false” button_border_width__hover=”0px”]<\/p>\n Get fast, easy, and secure delivery of large media files.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_cta][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row custom_padding_last_edited=”on|tablet” _builder_version=”4.14.7″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” module_alignment=”center” custom_margin=”|411px||auto|false|false” custom_padding=”0px|141px|0px|141px|false|false” custom_padding_tablet=”0px|0px||0px|false|false” custom_padding_phone=”0px|0px|0px|0px|false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”3.25″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text content_tablet=”<\/p>\n ” content_phone=”<\/p>\n ” content_last_edited=”off|desktop” module_id=”result” _builder_version=”4.14.7″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin_tablet=”” custom_margin_phone=”||0px||false|false” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|phone” custom_padding=”20px||||false|false” custom_padding_tablet=”20px||||false|false” custom_padding_phone=”||20px||false|false” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/massive.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/MASV-NLE-Open-Graph_small.jpg” alt=”MASV logo with dark background” title_text=”MASV-NLE-Open Graph_small” _builder_version=”4.14.7″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.14.7″ text_font=”||||||||” text_font_size=”18px” text_line_height=”1.8em” header_font=”||||||||” header_line_height=”1.3em” custom_padding=”0px||0px||false|false” custom_padding_tablet=”25px||||false|false” custom_padding_phone=”0px||||false|false” custom_padding_last_edited=”off|tablet” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n No matter the size of the project or number of transfers it ultimately requires, MASV has proven an invaluable partner that\u2019s helped expand Hell’s Color Kitchen\u2019s capabilities to match the ever-evolving cutting edge of the industry.<\/p>\n Although HCK initially became a user because of MASV\u2019s ability to handle any file size, the company quickly fell in love with the service\u2019s speed, reliability, and ease of use.<\/p>\n \u201cI used to have to break up files into four pieces to get it uploaded\u201d using other solutions, she says.
