Bloomsburg University of Pennsylvania to Deploy New Mediasite MultiView Campus-Wide
Posted on Wednesday, March 12, 2014
Mediasite’s multi-perspective
video capture capabilities deepen engagement for any live or on-demand video
MADISON, Wis. — March 12, 2014 — Mediasite
MultiView, a new multi-format video capture feature from Sonic Foundry, Inc.
(NASDAQ: SOFO), the trusted leader for video content management and webcasting
solutions, will allow Bloomsburg University of Pennsylvania to uniquely capture
and stream multi-perspective videos of classroom projects and faculty research.
For the past six years, the university has used Mediasite Enterprise Video
Platform to streamline its video content management, and pull together all
user-generated content, recorded lectures and special events into one easy to
manage system.
Now, it’s going a step further by deploying Mediasite
7 campus-wide this spring, including Mediasite
MultiView, for multiple, fully synchronized high definition feeds for
critical analysis of student and faculty work. The new release also features
dual video capture in My Mediasite, the user-friendly tool used by Bloomsburg
University faculty, staff and students to easily capture, upload and share
video from any computer.
These features will add real-life dimension and
deepen engagement for any live or on-demand video the university captures with
Mediasite.
“Mediasite 7’s ability to select any combination of
cameras to be captured and streamed simultaneously will be helpful for
role-playing student interviews and focus group research,” said Asa Kelley,
media technician, Bloomsburg University. “Mediasite
is the most versatile, robust system around.”
Each of the campus’ four colleges — Business,
Education, Liberal Arts and Science and Technology — currently use Mediasite to
modernize the hundreds of hours of classroom footage on VHS tapes dating back
several decades. The university is digitizing everything using Mediasite
Enterprise Video Platform so that it can be easily watched and managed with the
click of a button. With Mediasite’s powerful search capabilities, everything is
indexed, making entire video libraries searchable and saving immeasurable time.
Currently the university has 1,350 Mediasite
presentations on its server, of which 1,000 were created in the last 12 months
due to its recent deployment of My Mediasite. Kelley said My Mediasite will
lead to even more content being generated at an even faster pace.
“Bloomsburg University is a leader in combining
academic video with face-to-face instruction to enhance student performance.
With its deployment of Mediasite MultiView and the Desktop Recorder, the
university is taking knowledge sharing to a new level, giving faculty and
students in-depth looks at classroom activities and allowing video creation to
occur at a rapid pace,” said Gary Weis, chief executive officer, Sonic Foundry.
