Files
For each asset that arrives at The MediaPreserve, we create up to three files intended to fulfill all possible use needs: a preservation master file for long term storage, an intermediary file for presentation/editing, and a streaming file for digital distribution. We will work with you at the beginning of the project to determine which files best suit your needs.
