Eclair, a leader in content services for
the motion picture and television industries (Ymagis
Group – ISIN: FR0011471291, MAGIS, PEA-PME, TECH 40), today announced the
launch of EclairSend, its new, pay-as-you-go online large file transfer and transcoding
service developed with film and audiovisual industry professionals.
The
browser-based EclairSend platform
https://send.eclair.digital/ enables
producers, distributors, filmmakers, broadcasters and
non-industry professionals anywhere in the world to easily manage their files
and assets, convert videos and deliver any type of content, without size
restriction.
"With over a
century of experience in content services, we are mindful of the continued
challenges faced by industry professionals who need to securely share large
files, from rushes to DCPs, in a matter of minutes without any constraints,”
said Pascal Mogavero, Senior Vice President of Eclair. "In this
rapidly-evolving marketplace, Eclair is actively pursuing the digitalization of
its services with the introduction and operation of cloud-based platforms to
ensure we always meet our customers’ needs. With its guaranteed results and
unlimited potential, we are excited to introduce EclairSend as the first in a
suite of tools from our new Eclair Digital Solutions division.”
“During the
development of EclairSend, we organized monthly meetings named ‘Make it Easy’
to present our ideas for the platform and have them challenged by professional
users and UX experts,” added Sebastien Arlaud, Eclair’s Chief Digital Officer.
“The aim was to ensure this intuitive tool could be used effortlessly by all
and from anywhere, and we are grateful for their insight and guidance in making
EclairSend the most advanced file transfer solution on the market.”
"With its
user-friendly interface and transparent pricing, EclairSend makes our entire
file transfer process a breeze," added Candice Kalil, Head of Servicing for
international sales agent Kinology. “Since we have total control from start to
finish and receive real-time notifications every step of the way, it’s also a
true time saver.”
EclairSend is a
fast and secure pay-per-action solution designed to allow customers to easily
send content and transcode even the largest video files without dedicated
professional software. Users can upload any file or folder (e.g., DCP – Digital
Cinema Package) directly from their desktop and convert source video into
ready-to-use files using professional codecs (ProRes, XDCam, H.264, etc.) and/or
add a burnt-in time code (BITC) to H.264 files with just one click. Users can
also use the smart ASK button to invite a third-party to drag & drop any
file directly to their EclairSend desk for instant sharing. Files are delivered
through third-party download link invitations and users receive automated
transfer and download notifications for total control.
All
communications and transfers through EclairSend are SSL encrypted to ensure
optimum security. User authentication is based on worldwide standards, while
the service is available 24/7. EclairSend also features a dedicated library
through which users can add, delete and manage all their saved files online
from any device with unlimited storage space, or invite colleagues and clients
to create and use a shared library. Assets can be organized by project or
technical specifications for quicker access and greater ease of use.
