With an extensive background in technology and business development, Bruce K. Long guides BeBop Technology as CEO and founder. Bruce K. Long and his team are focused on offering post-production content creators and facilities with leading-edge cloud solutions that are cloud and software-tool agnostic.
Speaking with the host of Digital Production BuZZ in 2017, Mr. Long described his firm’s service suite as reflecting “a decentralization of Hollywood” and an empowering of individuals within the post-production ecosystem. His company enables professionals around the world to accomplish mission-critical tasks, such as color-correction, video editing and special effects, using the BeBop platform.
This has developed into a vital need, as the industry transitions to file formats that take significantly more data space, such as augmented-reality, 4K, and high-dynamic-range (HDR). These formats test the limits of what individual computers are capable of running, even at the high-end range.
As an example, editing a 4K television show on a medium-sized laptop would require either a compressed-image or workaround that stresses the computer. With BeBop, the content creator gains access to real-time editing of 4K and even 8K video via the cloud. On the back end, the robustness of this service reflects extremely large cloud servers and data-transmission capabilities.
