Movida is a complete and web-based scheduling

solution for Video On-Demand services. It enables

you to manage the editorial side of your

on-demand business across multiple platforms,

devices, business models and countries. You and

your team just need to upload your content

catalog, optionally record rights and Movida will

help you schedule accordingly in all of your

platforms.

Movida means not having to worry about things

outside of your control; it means knowing at all

times whether you are scheduling all your content

correctly or not; knowing that everyone else on

the team will have access to the same exact

information and will work in unison without

having to rely on emails or Excel documents; that

all downstream operations and teams will be

driven by this very same information, because it

has all been put together through a single and

easy to use web application that sits at the heart

of your Video On-Demand world.

Setting a Movida account up involves configuring

the platforms where the content will be

scheduled, which often coincide with the

platforms you are distributing or publishing

content to.

These platforms are “rights-aware” and carry a set

of Scheduling Requirements, or to put it

differently, the Rights requirements that content

must meet in order for you to be able to schedule

it on a given platform. For instance, you might

want to schedule content on "iTunes" in the UK;

the requirements for that platform could be that

any content scheduled on it must have rights for

the UK territory, for the "Download To Own"

business model and for the "PC" and "Mobile"

devices. Any piece of content that does not have

at least that combination of rights in the system

will not appear as "Rights cleared" in that

platform's schedule.

Setting it all upThe Product

All platform requirements are fully configurable per account

In order to help put together a schedule, Movida

needs titles! And it provides a great place to store

them: a comprehensive Title Catalog that sits at

the very heart of Movida.

Sometimes you will just have a small number of

titles or series to work with, or simply want to

start scheduling as soon as possible; in those

cases, creating the titles directly in Movida is the

most efficient way of going about it.

As part of the creation process, you can specify

the title, an optional External ID if you use your

own identifiers, who you are licensing the

content from, add thumbnails to quickly identify

it, classify it with tags for enhanced filtering

capabilities and, if what you are creating is a

series, you'll be able to create its episodes quickly

on the spot.

Although our world domination plan involves

getting everyone in media to stop using Excel for

Video On-Demand management, we know that

our customers often receive their content or avails

lists in Excel. If that is your case, or if you have

most of the information about your titles in

advance (e.g. metadata or scheduling information)

and wish to upload it all at once, your might want

to try our mighty import process.

Simply filling in the sample Excel document we

provide, selecting it from our import page and hitting

the import button will do the trick. You can safely

browse away while it is being imported and, for long

running imports, get notified once it finishes.

Create Series and its Episodes easily from the same form

Once the import is done, each piece of content

can be accessed individually. Each Brand, Series or

Title has its own page in Movida that gathers all

its information in a single place and provides

quick access to anything related to that particular

piece of content, because in order to better take

decisions, a scheduler needs to be able to know

everything about a piece of content, and more so

when working in a team environment.

The Activity page provides a comprehensive audit trail

“Did we schedule Mad Men on this or that

platform?”, “Who deleted these images?” All of

these questions and more can be answered

through the sections of a content page:

• The Activity page, an exhaustive audit trail

where every single event in the history of that

piece of content is recorded.

• The Edit Information page, where all the basic

information can be edited or where a nice

thumbnail can be assigned to it.

• The Rights, Scheduling sections.

• The Assets, Images and Metadata information

(covered in depth as part of our Metadata

Brochure).

Some users want to be able to schedule content

well in advance without knowing whether they

will have the Rights for it; some other only

schedule content once they are positive they have

Rights for it. Movida supports both approaches

and it will always display what the Rights status

is for any given piece of content on the schedule

(No rights info, Rights Cleared, In conflict, etc...)

In the Rights section of a Series or Feature, you

can either record Rights, record Blackouts or Deny

Rights. While the former two will establish how

that content can be scheduled, the latter is used

when the content for whatever reason must not

be scheduled under any circumstance in some or

all of the configured platforms.

When adding rights or blackouts, they should be

recorded to match as closely as possible the

exploitation rights as specified by the licensor,

independently of the platforms that might be

setup in Movida at one moment or other; this will

ensure that, as more platforms are added, those

rights will be exploitable as well.

Normally rights involve a combination of

parameters; for instance, a distributor might

acquire rights for any platform and any device, but

only for a given country. Or it might acquire rights

just for Mobile devices as long as the business

model is Advertising funded. All of these

combinations are easy to specify when recording

rights in Movida, along with:

• Whether it is a Catch-up or a pure On-Demand

right.

• Its license window (when the content can be

put up and when it should be taken down).

• Limits like Utility (how many episodes of a

given series can be scheduled at the same

time).

Recording Rights Recording rights for a Series

Many different rights combination can be recorded per title

• Limits like Exploitation (minimum and

maximum number of days each title can be

scheduled).

• Other settings like Clearances (whether rights

need to be secured individually for each title),

Parity (whether different schedules should have

the same content), and Repeats (how content

can rerun in your schedules).

• Whether all episodes of a series are affected or

just a subset of them.

You can associate as many rights as required to

any given piece of content in order to cover all

possible combinations. For instance, a Broadcaster

might have certain Catch-Up rights but acquire

Subscription Video On-Demand rights for a second

run of the content on a given platform.

Rights can also be entered as part of a “Deal”.

A Deal provides a way to store all rights information

as agreed in a licensing deal, where a set of

umbrella rights will be agreed (license windows,

business models, devices, platforms, etc.) and a list

of features or series with equal or different

availability windows will be governed by them.

All the individual rights resulting from deals will

also be visible as part of the series or features

affected.

Adding content to one or more platforms

On-Demand

Content can be scheduled in two ways, and the

first one is by going to that specific title or series

and adding it to one or more schedules:

This is very handy when a whole series needs to

be scheduled across multiple platforms. From this

same page, you can access the main schedule

page just for this piece of content in order to

perform further operations with it, such as

exporting it or sending the content to Sequence

(one of our other products, fully integrated with

Movida).

The second way to schedule content involves our

visual schedule, which is much better for longer

scheduling sessions that involve multiple titles; for

instance, when you need to put together a

schedule for a whole month on a given platform

taking into account volumes of content and

available rights, the visual schedule is just the tool

for that.

The visual schedule will let you modify a schedule

just by dragging and dropping elements on the

screen and will visually inform you of the rights

status of each episode or feature. It also enables

you to:

• Do powerful filtering: by tag, rights status or

name.

Catch-Up

created. These rules are closely related to rights,

and the rules page will warn you as to whether

you are scheduling within your catch-up rights or

not, and adjust rules to match those rights if

necessary.

• Change the scope and work by week, month or

year.

• Change start or end dates by simply extending

or reducing content.

• Reschedule content by moving multiple titles or

series back and forth.

• Stagger scheduled series so that one or more

episodes come in every week.

• Keep track of content volumes and rights status.

And much, much more!

Results & Benefits

As shown at the beginning, the main output of

Movida is a comprehensive schedule across all

platforms and territories that can be consumed in

a number of ways, like:

• Sending it to our Sequence product for the

operations team to commence encoding,

subtitling or transcoding operations.

• Publishing scheduling information and metadata

directly to the platforms in XML format for those

users who use our Metadata product.

• Consuming it through our APIs to drive other

systems or consumer apps.

• Simply exporting it to Excel to send to other

people or departments.

All of these features allow your teams to be more

productive: more titles can be distributed to more

platforms, with speed and quality. The systematic

approach of Movida also lets you optimise

exploitation of your on-demand rights, and of

your non-linear ad inventory.

The favourite feature of any Broadcaster (or

Network), our Catch-up module drives automatic

scheduling based on a Linear Schedule import of

one or many TV channels. The Catch-up section is

organised as an inbox, where you can see what

new linear content has been imported, whether it

has already been scheduled as catch-up or should

be discarded for catch-up or whether there are

any rights conflicts that need to be solved.

When you select a programme for Catch-up,

Movida will take you to the Rules section of that

programme where one or more rules can be

Our products have well designed, powerful yet

simple web service Application Programming

Interfaces that are publicly documented. Everything

a human can do in Movida can be achieved using

the API. Movida can be fully integrated into our

customers media operations through its API,

working seamlessly with other systems such as

Linear Scheduling Systems, Media Asset

Management or Advertising Campaign Managers.

Deep integration like this enables Movida to show

our users the results of work initiated in other

systems or to drive work in those systems.
