DreamCatcher™ Highlight Factory

Clips will be created automatically in real time as plays happen. Users can choose from dozens of different fields to be included as tags on each clip.

Producers and operators can leverage "stories" to automatically create playlists during the course of a game or event based off metadata that has been assigned to clips. These playlists can be created remotely using the DreamCatcher™ Media Suite interface and "sent" to any operator in the DreamCatcher™ Network.

Users can optionally choose for clips that match certain storylines in a game to be automatically exported in real time when those events occur. Detailed statistical data can be included with these exports as part of custom sidecar XML files which can be used to import the footage and all of its relevant data into a media asset management software.

Users can load their own custom metadata schemas into DreamCatcher™ and use them to apply information to clips in real time. This information can then function inside DreamCatcher™ just like any other stats feed, providing the basis for automated clipping, tagging, and playlist creation.

The DreamCatcher™ Highlight Factory can automatically create "sessions" for each game a few days before it starts. If media management is a challenge, DreamCatcher™ can also be configured to automatically delete these sessions and their content in the days following the event.
