ENVY extends relationship with Avid to streamline post workflows

Full-service post-production facility ENVY has signed a multi-year subscription and support contract with media systems integrator Jigsaw24 Media to extend its relationship with Avid and supply its facilities with Avid’s state-of-the-art video editing and storage capabilities.

The deal will provide ENVY’s five London facilities with the latest Avid Media Composer | Enterprise video editing software and Avid NEXIS F-Series storage engines. It will enable ENVY editing teams to increase efficiency through powerful, time-saving AI-driven tools, collaborate from anywhere, and gain the flexibility to scale their offering as demand increases.

ENVY co-founder Natascha Cadle explained: “Our technical setup is second to none, with our editors demanding leading-edge technology to power their creativity. Continuing our journey with Avid shows our commitment to providing our clients and editing teams with the industry’s best and latest functionality.”

ENVY technical operations director Jai Cave added: “We are thrilled to continue our long-term relationship with Avid, who have been a great partner since ENVY started. Avid’s unwavering commitment to the professional market and their long-term technical strategy gave us the confidence to sign a multi-year deal. We look forward to continuing to work with the Avid team.”

Opened in 2006, ENVY is a full service, end-to-end post-production facility, working across projects including documentary, entertainment, factual entertainment, scripted and shortform.

Avid Media Composer | Enterprise enables post-production and broadcast teams to increase efficiency through a streamlined, user-centric experience, while Avid NEXIS offers a comprehensive and reliable shared storage solution.

Avid’s chief revenue officer Tom Cordiner added: “With a reputation as one of the industry’s leading post houses, ENVY has been a longstanding customer of Avid for more than 10 years. We’re delighted to continue our relationship to help provide them with world-class editing facilities through our channel partners at Jigsaw24 Media.”

Jigsaw24 managing director Jason Cowan said: “During the time we’ve worked with ENVY, the industry has moved from analogue to digital workflows and from on-prem to hybrid-cloud and software-as-a-service solutions – and our role as a media systems integrator has evolved accordingly. This new contract is a testament to the value that our team’s expertise continues to provide to post houses and the trust that ENVY places in our support services. We’re looking forward to working with the ENVY team over the next five years and beyond.”
