Metropolis DVD choose Media 100 844/X software

London-based Metropolis DVD have purchased and installed Media 100 844/X software, the award-winning editing system for lightning-fast compositing of unlimited layers.
Metropolis DVD are the film, television and DVD-production arm of the Metropolis Group, which includes Metropolis Studios, one of the top recording studios in the world.
Metropolis DVD, whose credits include Bryan Adams, Grateful Dead, Jimi Hendrix and Elton John, plan to use 844/X to "expand their creative services by offering their clientele a complete range of capabilities from world-class studio recording and CD mastering to DVD authoring and broadcast production."
Mike Gillespie, Head of New Business at Metropolis Group, said: "Systems like 844/X from Media 100 will do for the video post production market what Pro Tools did for the pro-studio market in the 1990s.
"Facilities that have invested hundreds of thousands, even millions, of dollars in post-production suites are now faced with a single product that will do it all for a fraction of the cost. We've been here before and learned our lessons – only this time we don't have a substantial legacy of investments to deal with."
The 844/X system was purchased by Metropolis through Media 100-authorised Soho reseller, New Media Research.
