TransMedia (www.transmediacorp.com), the leading provider of integrated and compatible online media management and collaboration solutions, and Univision Communications Inc. today announced that Univision will be deploying the TransMedia Colaborata 2.5 platform. Univision has selected TransMedia’s flagship platform Colaborata 2.5 to provide an integrated online environment for Univision’s users to securely aggregate, archive, manage, preview, share and distribute music, videos, pictures and documents, including artist, label and publishing related media and information.
“We are very excited that Univision has selected the Colaborata 2.5 platform to address its online media management, collaboration and distribution needs,” said Donald Leka, Chairman and CEO of TransMedia. “We are providing Univision with a universally compatible and integrated online platform that will automate and streamline many of their internal and external digital media and information management processes.”
“We look forward to working with TransMedia and are excited by the online efficiencies that their platform creates,” said Spencer Blua, Univision’s Manager of Music Applications. “TransMedia’s Colaborata platform provides us with a suite of tools that automate and simplify tasks that were previously manual and time consuming to execute,” he continued. “The platform provides a compatible online environment for Univision to securely collaborate and communicate internally and with our artists and affiliates, regardless of what type of computer they are using and without the need for any additional software installation” said Rick Soto, Unvision Music’s IT Manager.
The TransMedia platform provides a direct path for the music, film, broadcasting, advertising and publishing industries to manage, market and sell media -- creating a true media ecosystem.
The TransMedia Colaborata platform is designed to reduce Digital Friction™, which is caused by the rapid proliferation of digital files and information (music, video, images, documents, calendars, contacts etc.) and of non-integrated, non-compatible proprietary systems used to manage the many aspects of digital work and home life.
TransMedia’s Colaborata 2.5 platform combats Digital Friction™ by providing universal online access to personal, company and global media content and information through a single integrated and compatible platform. Colaborata enables users to manage media files, communicate while browsing and sharing media, and access information through a fully interactive media portal.
