Abstract: On-demand protection and authorization of playback of media assets includes receiving digital media at a server computer, storing intermediary data in a data store, and receiving a request from a client for the digital media. The method also includes generating a protected copy of the digital media from the digital media and the intermediary data. The method also includes storing a description of the protected copy in a database and sending the protected copy to the client. The method also includes receiving a request from the client to access the digital media and reading the description from the database based on information in the request. The method also includes sending a response to the client, the response indicating whether the client is authorized to access the digital media, and the response including cryptographic data to decrypt the protected digital media if the client is authorized to access the digital media.

Abstract: A system and method configured to allow production team members to view, organize and manage production of a motion picture. The system and method allows the production team members to organize the project script; extract the script into scenes and slates; view, organize, select and collaborate on uploaded digital media and takes for each scene as well as uploaded audio, music or special effects that are to be applied to the product. The system tracks versions of the project by monitoring each change as well. The system also allows production member to organize project calendars, tasks associated with projects, contacts, notes, budgeting and other facets of the project. The system incorporates security measures which allow certain members of the production team to only have access to designated high-security material.
