Denver Post Uses ItsActive to Stream Video Clips of NBA All-Star Week

ItsActive provides immediate access to video clips for fans

(PRWEB) February 19, 2005 -- The Denver Post has teamed with BroadbandVideo, Colorados premier streaming media services provider, to post video highlights of NBA All-Star week events. ItsActive, BroadbandVideos newest service, is being utilized to allow immediate viewing of the clips on the Denver Post site.

The ItsActive service provides the video crew an automated process for posting the video to the Denver Post website within minutes of the event taking place. Throughout each day of the week, video clips will be posted on a regular basis to give fans a close up look at highlights of each event.

With so many celebrities, basketball stars and cool events happening, we wanted to bring Denver Post readers a first-hand look at the excitement," explained Rebecca Risch, Executive Producer of Interactive Content at the Post. Prior to the ItsActive service, we would have had to drop off a tape to a provider who had to encode it and send back the links to us so we could then post on our site. Now, the whole process is automated and we can have the clips on the site immediately."

The Denver Post has made the ItsActive service available on their website too and invites anyone to submit video for consideration. For more information and to try out ItsActive for yourself, visit http://www.denverpost.com and click on the All-Star Week logo.
