INSIDEMedia Landing

Media Landing is a portal where users can deliver digital content in a secure environment. Instead of managing multiple delivery locations, files are uploaded to Media Landing and routed according to business rules or staged for the next step in a workflow.

Users upload against Placeholders that are pre-populated in Media Landing and contain uniform metadata. This means asset records will conform to SPE's media library standards and can be reliably discovered and reused across the studio.

Additionally, when receiving files, two validation checks are performed--one before the file reaches SPE storage and an additional check against SPE standards once uploaded.

Media Landing allows teams to know the status of files from the beginning of transfer through staging for the next process step. And it helps enable the smart use of assets for the next generation of intelligent workflows.
