The new streaming service features a full MOS workflow that includes the XPression 3D real-time graphics platform from Ross Video, the streamline solution for media asset management and the inception system for social media integration.
Yahoo finance has announced eight hours of live streaming financial news coverage in Canada. Yahoo Finance worked with technology partners Ross Video and Astuce Media, to bring their technical and creative offerings to the project.
Speaking about the partnership, Joanna Lambert, General Manager of Finance, Tech, Auto, Member Services at Verizon Media said: “As a digitally native platform, innovation is in our DNA. Our unique video capabilities, combined with unrivaled access to financial data, editorial content and investing tools, truly differentiate Yahoo Finance from anyone else in the industry. Were continuing to push the boundaries by pioneering new formats that will reach audiences across all platforms and channels
Vanessa Strouse, Senior Director of Operations and Creative at Yahoo Finance added: Digital Media is an entirely different landscape from Broadcast Media. Our customers are very savvy and want accessibility, robust financial news data, and a visually stimulating experience. They want the ability to access free critical financial data, where and how they want it. It was important to partner with companies that offered technological flexibility that would help Yahoo Finance grow our programming and improve our members experience. Ross Video and Astuce Media fit the bill perfectly.” –
