How can you digitize your media workflow to accelerate time-to-market?

From creation to online distribution, storage and management, learn how to automate your entire media workflow with Keepeek, Grand Shooting and TwicPics .

PRODUCTION: From photo studio to DAM
Operational excellence for content production

Shooting rates are high, and so are expectations in terms of style and image quality. However, the last product references to arrive in stock, and therefore to be photographed, are known at the last moment.

To guarantee quality and speed of execution, Grand Shooting is perfectly integrated with the rewinder's information system: product references, expected views, activity monitoring, etc. all data is analyzed in real time to alert the operator to any omissions, delays or deviations from internal workflows.

STOCKER: From DAM to CMS
Media assets are enhanced for the entire ecosystem 

For the majority of e-commerce companies, products sold online first arrive in batches of images, generally created in the studio (packshot, ambience, variations, etc.). These images need to be linked to product data and adapted in different formats to suit all distribution channels (mobile applications, e-Commerce sites, social networks, etc.), and sometimes even retouched by dedicated in-house or external teams. As the media is at the heart of the customer experience, it's important to provide a large number of quality images, while saving as much processing time as possible, so that products can be put online as quickly as possible. 

The main objective of using Keepeek is to industrialize product media management, simplify and automate production processes, and distribute product data and media.

DELIVER: From DAM to end-buyer
Optimized quality and purchasing experience for all users

By analyzing who the user is, understanding their browsing context - device, browser, screen quality, connection quality - and how the page has been constructed in terms of artistic direction, the solution resizes and adapts media in real time to their needs.

Thanks to TwicPics customization, we can guarantee optimal visual quality and display speed for all users. A prerequisite for e-commerce banners and websites.

3 technical solutions to address organizational issues and achieve business objectives

The media value chain is optimized from end to end, from creative workflows to web distribution.

In a traditional organization, media are controlled and contributed manually. What's more, the quality of visuals is restricted to limit their weight, which penalizes page loading times and thus the user experience. 

The Grand Shooting and Keepeek solutions digitize and automate the process, accelerating time-to-market while reducing production costs by 40%. Thanks to TwicPics, there are no more limits on contributions from Grand Shooting: image weight is reduced by a factor of at least 2, while guaranteeing optimum asset quality on all screens, including Retina. 

The three solutions - Grand Shooting + Keepeek + TwicPics - enable products to be photographed, images to be retouched, content to be organized and enriched, assets to be delivered to the site, and sales to be launched in less than 24 hours.

In conclusion, this media management process, both customized and automatic, improves the user experience in terms of content and its processing, as well as the visual quality of assets. Teams are relieved of the task of creating, managing and distributing images on the site, and save precious time on the most time-consuming tasks.
