New Forbidden Forscene goes live with MAM infusion

Forbidden Technologies has released the new version of Forscene with a redesigned interface befitting Forscene’s professional capabilities. In addition, it has revamped both the company website and the Forscene product website in order to give visitors more relevant, in-depth information about each and to bring the company’s complete digital presence up to date.

“2014 is the year we have transformed from an engineering solution to a creative solution,” said Stephen Streater, CEO at Forbidden Technologies plc. “Simplicity is not the mere absence of complexity, it is the mastery of complexity — and we have carried this ethos from Forscene across our new digital presence.”

The new Forscene interface combines professionally designed graphics with an elegant colour scheme and updated functionality to provide an efficient and enjoyable experience. Forbidden is also giving Forscene a new infusion of functionality by adding a Media Asset Management (MAM) system. Through the Forscene MAM, users will have the full potential of the platform — from acquisition to publishing — at their fingertips.

Other new Forscene features include the ability to publish with burnt-in timecode or any other metadata; expanded multicam logging to support up to 18 cameras simultaneously; and increased support for different formats that enables functions such as editing MXF files during ingest.
