April 10, 2013



Sony Corporation of America announces the launch of Sony Media Cloud Services, a new subsidiary that will give creative professionals a virtual workspace with revolutionary media applications to store, share and manipulate content from any location in the world.

Leveraging Sony's end-to-end expertise across the media landscape, the new company's robust, scalable cloud platform, Ci(SM) (pronounced see), will provide studios, broadcasters, filmmakers, independent producers, marketing teams and other creative individuals a "one-cloud" solution to collect, produce and archive high-value, high-definition content, allowing fast and secure collaboration on a global scale.

"Every day, creative professionals around the world spend numerous hours and resources on non-creative tasks like moving and sharing content, figuring out how and where to store it, and getting the right assets to the right places and in the right hands," said Naomi Climer, President, Sony Media Cloud Services.

"Sony understands these complex challenges, which is why we designed Ci as a functionally rich, scalable and secure, media-focused cloud platform that can enhance and streamline traditional production workflows to make it easier to collaborate more effectively and cost-efficiently."

"The efficiency and flexibility that cloud solutions provide will radically change the way creative professionals collaborate," said Chris Cookson, President, Sony Pictures Technologies.

"Working with Sony's Cloud Services team to further enhance Ci's platform and applications will enable our production and distribution teams around the world to work together more efficiently, without sacrificing creativity or quality."

Forged from Sony's proven ability to solve real-world production and post-production challenges, Ci has been designed with intuitive capabilities to analyze complex media and data to enable machine-assisted workflows--making it one of the industry's most innovative media solutions available to professionals at any level. Pay-as-you-go pricing, infinite scalability, application-based servicing, all from a secure browser-based user interface, make it simple for people to assemble teams online, work on projects and access files from locations around the world. Applications available at launch include:
