Harris Morris, VP of Broadcast, offers on overview of Harris’ workflow solutions, with insights on how Harris can help customers make money throughout their entire workflows, and how they can experiment with newer technology like mobile and the web using their existing content. From content management to metadata tracking, Harris offers seamless solutions designed to monetize the multiple streams of content delivery available today.
Harris is making the commitment to validate and certify the interoperability of not only our products, but of third-party products as well. The $2.5 million Harris Interoperability Lab in Toronto, the first of its kind, houses 43 racks of equipment spanning every major Harris Broadcast product line. The Lab validates and certifies the interoperability of Harris products and technologies, resulting in significantly improved product reliability and the delivery of efficient, tailored solutions that contribute directly to our customers’ bottom line.
At over 3,000 square feet, the Interoperability Lab is a purpose built environment that features a large central equipment room, a highly configurable master control area and a large meeting room. The Lab is a showcase for all of Harris’ software and hardware products. In this video, Stan Moote, Vice President of Development and Paul Briscoe, Manager of Strategic Engineering — Infrastructure and Networking, as well as Eugene Plawutsky, Product Level Manager, Master Control & Branding tell the Lab’s story — including the very positive response from our clients who have already visited.
The Harris Broadcast Workflow Diagram prompted a lot of discussion at this year’s NAB with many people spending significant time walking through its design. The graphic was designed by a team led by Stan Moote, Harris Broadcast Vice President of Development, and Candace Helgerson, Product Marketing, Media & Workflow. In this video, Stan walks us through the diagram from a multi-platform deliver perspective.

Players in the media business (such as broadcasters, program producers/distributors, ad agencies and commercial producers) don’t believe that technologists can integrate all of their systems. Sure, they have all seen point-to-point integrations succeed, but many remain skeptical when it comes to fully integrated worklows from start to inish. In addition, many technologists don’t believe that these players know, or care, enough about metadata. Both are mistaken, of course. This leads to a bit of a chicken-and-egg situation in the realization of fully digital worklows, and the eficiencies they promise. A classic example of this is the slow adoption of new means of content identiication, such as ISAN and Ad-ID, with the improved metadata lows that these standards facilitate. This paper will explore the stumbling blocks, enablers, and milestones that users encounter along the way to their ultimate goal of fully digital worklows, and will attempt to show users the path of least resistance, with a focus on the worklows associated with advertising content.
Candace Helgerson, Product Marketing, Media & Workflow, discusses Harris’ innovations in content management, workflow, automation and delivery, including ways to improve our customers’ business bottom line.
