Sohonet, the global leader in collaboration solutions and connectivity for the media and entertainment industry, and BIND Studio, a trailblazer in visual effects production technology, announce a strategic partnership that brings together Sohonet’s FileRunner and ClearView Flex with BIND Studio’s comprehensive platform, to deliver a powerful solution that streamlines collaboration for VFX teams.
“By integrating Sohonet’s advanced collaboration suite with BIND Studio’s innovative cloud platform, we’re introducing a game-changing solution for distributed VFX teams,” said Sohonet CPO Erik Strauss. “This partnership ensures seamless, secure, and efficient workflows, allowing creative professionals to channel their energy into artistry while we handle the complexities of their collaboration technology.”
To meet the ever-growing need for speed and security in the VFX industry, BIND Studio has integrated Sohonet’s FileRunner into its visionary software platform. FileRunner will serve as the critical file transport engine—moving files securely, seamlessly, and quickly between users throughout the VFX workflow—empowering artists, production teams, visual effects vendors, and studios to focus on creativity and storytelling while delivering top-tier visual effects.
Complementing its file transfer solution, BIND Studio’s cloud-native platform, powered by AWS is now enhanced with the newly virtualised version of Sohonet’s real-time review platform, ClearView Flex. This integration enables remote teams to conduct high-quality colour and frame accurate VFX reviews quickly — accelerating workflows and streamlining production.
“At BIND Studio, our aim is to simplify the complexities of VFX production,” said Founder of BIND Studio Jason Fotter. “Our partnership with Sohonet, renowned for its innovative collaboration suite and trusted reputation in the media and entertainment industry, is a natural fit. By integrating both FileRunner and ClearView Flex into our platform, we’re enabling our clients to focus on creativity and storytelling while streamlining every stage of the production workflow.”
NAB attendees can come see Sohonet and BIND at Sohonet’s booth (W3523) at NAB.
