The cloud-based production services Aframe has announced that Clean Cut Media is using its platform for delivering programming related to the ATP World Tour tennis season.

The cloud based service allowed Clean Cut Media to stop relying on overnight shipment of tapes and hard drives and to share content between production teams via the cloud.

The company also used the service to deliver "ATP World Tour Uncovered, presented by Rio," the ATP's weekly 26-minute magazine show to broadcasters in over 150 countries worldwide; to ingest footage from ATP World Tour events in 61 tournaments in 31 countries on 6 continents; to quickly version content into different language and country-specific packages; and to speed up the review and approval process for highlights and promo packages.

January Lo, production manager at Clean Cut Media also noted in a statement that the "secure private cloud network is a smarter way for us to upload large files and manage our online archive easily" and that "it creates proxies from hi-res files for clients to view our work immediately before we send out the final version."
