As remote work becomes standard in media production, efficient tools for collaborative video review are essential. Sony’s Ci Media Cloud platform’s MediaBox now features LiveSession, designed to make real-time video review seamless for distributed teams. Ideal for post-production review, client approvals, team feedback sessions, and any scenario where real-time video collaboration is needed.

LiveSession is a new feature in MediaBox that enables real-time, collaborative video review. It’s built for teams needing to watch, discuss, and annotate video content together, regardless of location.

How it works:
• Participants join a LiveSession through a simple web link sent via email—no software downloads required.
• The session provides synchronized video playback, so everyone sees the same frame at the same time.
• Playback controls (play, pause, seek) are shared, keeping all viewers in sync.
• Users can add time-stamped comments & on-screen annotations and mark-ups directly to the video, making feedback specific and easy to reference later.

Key Benefits
• Remote Collaboration: LiveSession removes geographical barriers, letting teams review content together in real time.
• Faster Feedback and Approvals: Immediate discussion and clear, contextual comments speed up decision-making.
• No Technical Barriers: Runs in any modern browser, requiring no plugins or installations.
• Security: Sessions are protected by Ci’s security features, ensuring only invited users can access the content. Add visual watermarks for extra security.
