Adstream's new plugin for Adobe Premiere Pro allows for a seamless user experience where video content creators and editors can export a finished file from their timeline or project bin directly to Adstream's advertising delivery platform, ONE Delivery.
ONE Delivery performs an Intelligent QC via Media Manager and the file is then matched to an order to be sent to any TV and online destination allowing a more streamlined workflow, minimum technical issues, and less time spent on fixing the ad specs.
