Introduction
You’ve got your collection of multimedia files, which looked pretty manageable with your custom folder scheme when you first started, grew less fun to manage as it got bigger and bigger and now threatening to drown you under. You dread each day when new content arrives to add to your troubles. You cannot find what you are looking for, at a reasonable time. You need to secure your assets, but you need to make them accessible for your employees and customers too. Despite all your precautions, that irreplaceable footage you needed somehow got deleted, and you don’t even know who did it. Your content arrives in A, B and C formats, and you have to deliver in X, Y, Z formats, each with its own data form. Things look grim, you are starting to get buried under your content. You need an assistant.
