Centralizing and Distributing Rich Media Files for Marketing Communications,
Archives and Media Services
Miami Dade College
• Miami Dade College is a state-supported college with eight campuses and numerous outreach centers. We are the largest institution of higher education in the United States.
• Marketing Communications promotes institutional awareness by providing complete campaign development for academic programs and college events, utilizing print, broadcast and Web media.
• College Archives is a repository of documents, photographs and videos related to the history of Miami Dade College.
Digital Asset Management Journey
Life Before DAM - RR
• File cabinets full of un-catalogued photos, contact sheets, CDs and publications, dating back 50 years.
• Decentralization with the arrival and benefits of digital cameras.
• No digital asset management system in place.
Digital Asset Management Journey
Challenges - RD
• The digital revolution brought with it the digital information age. Once our institution switched to a fully digital media, the challenge was how to organize and make all those assets (digital images and metadata) available to a consistently more time demanding schedule, spread out workforce, and exterior entities.
• Once Portfolio was introduced, the College’s decentralized and campus-based media services divisions were encouraged to upload their assets. The Marketing Communications division had to encourage “buy-in” and consensus.
• Technical challenges: bandwidth, actual technical implementation, learning curve
• Determining technical standards and naming conventions
• Training
Criteria used to select DAM solution – RD and RR• Extensis had worked previously
with clients of this scale.• Extensis offered the support we
needed.• MDC IT was familiar with the
technology on the back end, including working with databases and SQL servers.
• The scalability of this system made it a logical candidate because it would allow us grow at our own pace.
• The wide range of asset accessibility and distribution made it a clear winner over similar products.
