But with the increased focus on improving the relevance of customer communications, personalised videos and infographics are now being generated at scale.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, given that short videos can be 30 MB or more in size, an exponential increase in the volume of large multimedia files in use brings with it a significant cost for distribution and storage.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, the cost of managing large files is far from the only problem:<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #f27300;\"><strong>Nothing fails faster than slow-to-load files<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\nLarge multimedia files generate disappointing customer experiences when poor quality internet connections, sub-optimal software and sluggish devices are involved.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #f27300;\"><strong>Time to market<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\nRendering and distributing tens of millions of personalised videos and multi-media interactive files takes many hours, days or even weeks to process because the files involved are so large.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]The answer to these challenges lies with new file rendering and compression technology \u2013 using software to reduce file sizes.<\/p>\n<p>However, more often than not, file compression brings with it the spectre of significant lost quality, and no one, least of all the recipients, wants grainy or pixilated videos.<\/p>\n<p>So how do you go about radically lowering rich media files with only minimal loss of quality?<\/p>\n<p>We spent a lot of time pondering that question at iLiveIt, resulting in the creation of unique and extraordinary file rendering and compression software.<br \/>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1550657483873{margin-bottom: 0px !important;border-bottom-width: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 1rem !important;}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #5d8b9b;\"><strong>Re-imagining Rendering and Compression Software<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1550657616095{margin-top: 1rem !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;313&#8243; img_size=&#8221;400&#215;294&#8243; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]Our developers didn\u2019t just write code; they re-wrote the rule-book on how to approach file compression from a software standpoint.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ll spare you the technical details, which we are unable to share for commercial reasons.<\/p>\n<p>What matters most is this &#8211; we can now compress large communication files like videos and graphics intensive documents from over 30 MB to under 250 kb with a quality-loss barely noticed by consumers using smartphones and tablets.<\/p>\n<p>Indeed the quality loss is even acceptable for standard-screen laptops and desktops too.<br \/>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1550657528808{margin-bottom: 0px !important;border-bottom-width: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 1rem !important;}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #5d8b9b;\"><strong>Benefits Of Super-Compressed Videos And Graphics Intensive Files<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1544607051391{padding-top: 1vh !important;}&#8221; el_class=&#8221;margin-5&#8243;]Our unique rendering and compression software packs high-quality, personalised videos and PDFs into tiny file sizes<br \/>\n&#8211; often over 100 times smaller than the master &#8211; so that they:[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h5><strong><span style=\"color: #f27300;\">Can be mass produced at scale rapidly<\/span><\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>Rapid mass video production is a vital capability for organisations as we move to a new era of delivering ongoing hyper-personalised communications and experiences.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h5><strong><span style=\"color: #f27300;\">Are lightning-quick to send at scale<\/span><\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>Execute campaigns faster and complete processing times sooner.
