The tapeless revolution consolidated

Durie, F

Abstract

The broadcast and media sectors are now on the cusp of evolving and
witnessing fundamental changes driven by a combination of technological
advances, new and emerging delivery platforms, new methods of distribution
and an increasingly global market place. The final stage of the move from
analogue to tapeless file based delivery is the culmination of over 15 years of
change in production and working practices within the UK media sector.

The 1st of October 2014 was a landmark in UK broadcasting with the BBC
changing to a fully tapeless delivery of all programmes. This landmark event
was one of the major projects promoted and administered by the Digital
Production Partnership and is the final implementation of the cross over from
analogue to a purely digital file based delivery of broadcast production and
distribution.
