Oxford Film Festival got in touch with Indee with a specific problem. They had wrapped their submissions with Withoutabox but still had a lot of their submissions on DVD and needed to speed up the judging process.

Additionally, to generate more buzz around their festival, they wanted to send the films to the local press but realized that most of the press never returns the DVDs sent to them. Furthermore, it was becoming expensive to copy and ship DVDs to the additional press they wanted to target this year.

Enter Indee.

Indee automatically pulled a report from Withoutabox with all the films Oxford was interested in having online. We got all the DVDs digitized and online in 480p DVD resolution.

Soon enough Oxford was ready to send the films securely to their judges and to a vast number of press screeners to generate the additional buzz around the festival.

The man hours Indee saved Oxford in not having to manage and mail DVDs to the press and judges is estimated to be about 30 man hours, and this is just for a small fraction of their actual submissions.Some of our larger festivals save more than 500 man hours by switching to Indee. This doesn’t even begin to factor in the additional cost savings in eliminating the overhead of managing DVDs and a judging system.
