Convey

Automated creation of digital deliverables

Convey is a sister application to Control Dailies that automates the creation of popular file based formats for Dailies deliverables. Convey works in the background, automatically creating a consistent set of deliverables every night, based on the pre-defined set of templates and configurations created in Control Dailies Core.  Codecs such as MPEG 2, DNxHD, WM9, MPEG 4, QuickTime and AVI can be simultaneously created with user defined bit rates, aspect ratios, window burns and audio mixes. Choose to output to files, DNxHD, Blu-ray or DVD.

With Convey, facilities can successfully generate all the output for Studio Executives, On-Set and Editorial in a single session.  Thanks to Control Dailies technical architecture, there's no need to target a single output format to gain the speed and power needed to complete dailies on time
