Our recently-launched SetMeUp on-set system with Cinedeck (www.setmeup.tv) and our new, affordable axle Drive bundles have been getting a lot of attention and early orders so far. And, special thanks and shout-out to recent axle Gear customers CBS, NBC Universal, NASA and New York ad agency Merkley + Partners.
Merkley + Partners’ series of “Tortoise and Hare” Super Bowl commercials for the new Mercedes AMG sports car, directed by Robert Stromberg of Maleficent, were a high-profile success by an axle customer last week:
– and is that John Hamm in full Mad Men mode in the fade-out voiceover?
Hard to believe, but axle Video is heading into our third NAB show this April. We’ll have a 20×10 booth for the first time, and more importantly we’re delighted to be showing our all-new axle 2015 and axle Edit products. For the techies among us, we’re also making our new RESTful API available as part of a technology preview starting this month… this means all kinds of new potential to customize and integrate axle further with 3rd party products. We should have further announcements around this as NAB gets closer.
Even if you’re planning to attend NAB (but especially if you aren’t) we’re also demoing the new products at a series of events starting this week, at locations as far flung as Palm Springs and London. These are great opportunities for us to learn about your media management needs in depth, so we hope you can join us. As ever, feel free to contact me at any time if you have questions about our software and new integrated solutions.
