Key results of the project are:

-       Dramatic improvements in the two prime metrics proposed for evaluation of the metadatabase: 70% improvement in storage efficiency, and potentially 50% increase in productivity rate (Section 3.1.2)

-       The prototype metadatabase provides order of magnitude performance increase in performance of the conform process (Section 3.1.2)

-       Complex and context-related metadata queries allow users to work in ways that were not previously possible (Section 3.1.1)

-       Metadata tools evaluated according to the widely used Likert Scale, showing average results in excess of 4 out of 5 (Section 3.2.4)

-       Novel Visual Applications showing >40% improvement in usability and excellent integration with the metadatabase (Section 3.3.1), highlighting the possibilty for further 3^rd party plugin development (Section 3.3.2)

-       Novel Audible Applications show improvement over standard SIFA algorithms, and the 3D Audio technology has been successful enough to be featured in a spin-off company (Section 3.3.3)

-       Highly positive feedback obtained from internal partners with regards to creative applications, which are already potentially usable in a real post-production environment, and forms a sound basis for the creation of customised tools

-       Positive feedback from external users in the production and post-production industry, increasing the possibilities for dissemination and added-value impact outside the project

-       Novel distribution systems go beyond proof-of-concept and provide a realistic model for the future adaptation to physical-media-less distribution

-       Distribution system succesfully demonstrated to potential clients with very low failure rate (Section 3.4)

The project has successfully addressed all aspects of objective O5 To test and evaluate integrated ‘Virtual Film Factory’ and applications in real working environments (Section 4)
