/01
The problem

The challenge.

Active filmmakers accumulated terabytes of footage that hard drives couldn't keep up with.

General-purpose cloud storage was expensive and poorly tuned for streaming playback.

The client wanted a filmmaker-specific storage and streaming app.

/02
The plan

Our approach.

Built a React Native app with tiered storage on S3 and streaming via CloudFront.

Added server-side transcoding so previews stream fast on mobile.

Shipped project-based organisation with tags, scenes and takes.

Integrated team sharing and collaborative review features.

/03
The result

The outcome.

Filmmakers store, preview and share footage from any device.

Transcoded previews stream smoothly even on poor connections.

Storage costs scaled predictably by project.

What partners
tell us.

Most clients renew for a second engagement. The ones who don't usually hire someone from our team to run the project in-house.

We are a mental health charity and not tech minded. We needed to improve our patient registration system but wanted a company that we can relate to. Hassan took the time to meet with me and patiently went through our process to find a personalised solution for us. Hassan's team did a great job streamlining our process and connected our registration system to our patient management software. Whenever we have a glitch, they resolve this quickly. Cloudini provides a personal and efficient service and we have adopted them to be our IT provider.

I am writing to wholeheartedly recommend Cloudini as a premier bespoke software development agency. Our journey with them has been nothing short of exemplary, far exceeding our initial expectations. While many agencies can develop based on strict specifications, Cloudini demonstrated an incredible commitment to our project that was truly unparalleled.

Dragonfly has been working with the team at Cloudini for several years now on building out our web-based platform and APIs. One of their strengths is quickly building out a multi-disciplinary team to work on the development and delivery of features with different technical requirements. Their support has allowed us to accelerate our development work without building an internal team. They have also worked seamlessly with other third parties both during the acquisition of Dragonfly and development of our mobile app. Cloudini has been instrumental in bringing our ideas to life and providing guidance to help us make the best technical decisions. I would recommend getting in touch with them if you're looking for support.
