axle 1.0 wins prestigious TVB Europe Best Of IBC award

axle video LLC, a new company bringing radical simplicity to the traditionally complex field of media asset management, announced that its axle 1.0 software has been named as a Best Of IBC product in TVB Europe's highly selective awards process.

The browser-based software was introduced at the IBC conference in Amsterdam last month; it supports iPads, Windows PCs and Macs. The software makes it possible for small-to-midsize teams in postproduction facilities, field locations and corporate environments to collaborate easily and rapidly around video content.

Patrice Gouttebel, axle 1.0's product manager, said; "we were gratified to see the response from so many attendees at the show, and now from the influential editorial team at TVB Europe. We suspected we had something very unique to offer the worlds of broadcast and postproduction, and this announcement gives us a real boost in validating our approach."
