CHESA
CHESA understands the needs of artists, designers, and storytellers because we are cut from the same cloth. Many of our team members come from creative backgrounds and are practicing artists who produce and edit on the same systems as our clients. This allows us to bring expertise and empathy to every aspect of our engagements. We enable editors working in Adobe Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro X, Avid Media Composer, Avid Pro Tools, and more.
If it’s a creative app, we know it. From video editing, visual effects, animation and motion graphics to photography, audio editing, color-grading, and finishing, we have your app bases covered. You can count on us to provide expertise in setup and
configuration, as well as maintenance and support, of all major (and minor) platforms.
(CHESA) were a wealth of information right from that first call. We discussed all of our needs, talked about all the solutions I had been researching and diagnosed all of the challenges we had been having.”

CHESA designed a solution to give everyone faster access to the data, to make content searches and retrieval quick and easy, and to reduce the amount of administration time. It’s a win on every count.”

We ingested 3-days of underwater shoots that generated 4TB of RED (REDCODE®) raw footage at 8K. We ingested it as fast as the hard drives could handle, and transcoded the footage so the producers could screen and review it, which took just a few hours. If we didn’t have CHESA’s solution, it would have taken perhaps a week; it was nice to be able to turn it around so quickly!”

My first initiative was getting a good shared storage solution and MAM platform into the workflow. I realized migrating to this workflow wasn’t a one person job, so I called CHESA.”

It’s essential for creative applications to interact with network, storage, and media asset management systems in order to facilitate and streamline workflows. Oftentimes, editors experience the opposite effect when these systems are improperly architected and configured. CHESA can evaluate your current setup and make sure the right infrastructure is in place to meet your needs and deliver your product with quality, speed, and efficiency. Not just in theory.
Remote editorial workflows are here to stay but remain a murky sea of options for most facilities. CHESA’s Solutions Architects and engineers implemented a crash course at the onset of the pandemic to fully understand the best available options. We can help you decide which approach – perhaps remote access to onprem workstations, or cloud-based MAM with edit via proxycaching – makes the most sense for your unique needs.
