Edition #7
The trend of outsourcing is gaining momentum as companies pursue new online video technologies. Outsourcing is not just about more manpower or addressing the huge expenditure of online broadcasting infrastructure--it also omits any distraction from the company's core line of business.
These corporations yearn for an online broadcaster who can consult them throughout the whole process, has tried and true professionals to successfully execute on projects, and possesses the global mindset to think and act big yet still can improve their bottom line. It might seem like a daunting task but Origin Digital has been doing just that and that's what differentiates us from all those "ground-breaking" players
who now, come to think of it, are just a distant memory.

Car ChaseWeeks ago, Origin Digital supplied an electrifying video capture from a car chase going 80 miles an hour – a first for Origin Digital. Although not the Beverly Hills Cop type of chase, the company whose slogan is "Save Money. Live Better" had a specific vision for its commercial spot which would then be implemented into a future marketing campaign. Origin Digital worked closely with the creative agency to capture the footage in real-time. The content then needed to be streamed directly to its global marketing team in Arkansas. Mission accomplished. See it soon on a telly near you.

Is Flash dead?

There has been a lot of commotion on the Internet since the announcement of the iPhone/iPad not supporting Flash. This has created a veritable panic on the Internet as most people see this as a sign that the popular multimedia format is on the decline.

But, with all things Apple, there is always an ulterior motive. Fancy animation effects aside, Flash is the dominant video delivery format on the Internet. Without the ubiquity and ease of installation of the plug-in to enable easy video playback in a brower, it is unlikely that Internet video stars like YouTube would have reached critical mass.

As an alternative, Apple has suggested HTML5, which is an open standard that includes a number of new APIs that allow you to interact with the browser in a more application-like way. One of these new APIs is a video element tag that can play a video in the browser with a single line of HTML code: <video src="videoURL" />
