The circulation of data has made some progress at the government level, especially since the 21st century, with the help of the power of science and technology, the collected data are more abundant, and the analysis based on these data can help decision-makers make more scientific decisions. For example, the city's mobile phone signaling data can accurately reflect the traffic congestion in each section of the city, and the traffic management department can optimize the traffic route accordingly. Data can help government departments make scientific decisions in advance and provide more convenient and comfortable services for residents. However, these big data managed by the government are heterogeneous, multi-source, massive, dynamic, and isolated, which also makes government agencies face severe challenges. Raysync simplifies the tedious IT management process for the government, and at the same time, ensures the security and controllability of documents. Ensure the security of data during sharing: Raysync adopts AES-256 and SSL encryption algorithms which are standard in the industry to ensure the security of confidential files, policies, and other key information documents; without fear of packet loss and latency, even the remote confidential cooperation of government departments and unreliable location information transmission can be safely and reliably completed. Accelerate inter-departmental cooperation to fully share the data of government agencies: support the rapid transmission of information across regions, and easily realize inter-departmental and inter-organizational cooperation. Make data easy to manage: government agencies have a large number of departments and users, and Raysync provides user management functions for management to realize hierarchical authority restrictions. A single user interface simplifies the transfer process between departments and various organizations.

Studio 51 is a Mumbai and Beijing-based visual effects production studio, dedicated to the film, entertainment, and advertising industries. Studio 51 offers professional services including VFX, concept design, pre-production, shoot supervision, and post-production. Studio Head, Mr. Varun Hadkar, graduated from Manchester Business School and The University of Kent, UK , and has 19 years of experience in film and TV VFX. He has worked in the production of many famous film and TV blockbusters. In this interview, Varun shares some of his unforgettable production experiences and future plans for Studio 51 with us. Varun’s love for the film industry started in the early 2000s. He believes that each project that he has worked on has had its own unforgettable moments and challenges during the initial stage, shooting, and also post-shooting. His current role as a supervisor requires team management as well as understanding the requirements of clients and directors. His team, based in China and India, often uploads and Sync’s large amounts of data. Hence a stable, fast, and long-distance transfer service is vital for his work. Check out the Full Interview with Varun Hadkar! Raysync: Hi Varun! Thank you for accepting our interview! Would you briefly introduce yourself? Varun: I studied commerce and finance during my undergrad years. I also had a keen interest in filmmaking and started in the film/ television industry back then, by doing small jobs in productions like MTV. After doing a few gigs, I landed a job in Rhythm and Hues, which was one of the most highly-reputed companies, over a decade ago. After gaining a great deal of valuable experience at RnH, I left India and went to the UK to pursue further studies and work. Its was here that I completed my Masters from the University of Kent and a few years later, my MBA, from the University of Manchester. I had the opportunity to learn from and work together with some fantastic people in world-class studios. From there, I travelled to Asia— worked with Double Negative, in Singapore then BASE, in China for a few years. I’ve worked on many aspects of film — including producing, partially directing, and supervising. With my combined experience in these areas, I was able to establish Studio 51. We started as a VFX company but have diversified into Film production, AI, virtual production, and film making too. Raysync: Could you share unforgettable production experiences with us? Varun: Back when I was working with DNEG on a movie called Bridge of Spies produced by Spielberg, there were about 60-70 shots of VFX which were managed by a small team. In production, we generally do these temp comps to show the director what the shot looks like. Everybody did a version for their own shot, every shot is different. My shot went to the Director, Producer, and Spielberg's comment came in, “this looks great, final”! This was a big highlight for me. First off, this never happens on a shot of that scale. And for me, I got a direct comment from him. This was a great moment. He is a personality a lot of fans, filmmakers, artists look up to. Raysync: As a visual effects supervisor for Avengers, Salvage Marines, and Wandering Earth, what's the most challenging part, and how did you make it? Varun: Every project is different. With Avengers I was with Base, working under ILM. The great thing was that ILM gave us creative freedom. However, that also made the task that much challenging— getting the creative process approved by the director, in our case director Usually, the process of approval goes through a number of steps until we reach the director's approval. With some luck and with the help of our talented artists, the work that we produced at Base was high quality and was approved by ILM. The director's approval too came fairly quickly. For Wandering Earth, I think one of my biggest challenges was the language barrier. The entire crew spoke Chinese. Being on the set, trying to get the ideas across in front of the director, ensuring the crew understood each aspect, basically taking massive chunks of work, breaking it down to parts and funnelling it to key people, so that we were all on the same page— that was one of the most challenging things for me. This was a large-scale sci-fi film, so it definitely came with its usual challenges. Creatively, most aspects progressed steadily since the director already had a great vision and we also already had a fabulous concept artist. We had an experienced, talented art director, so that made things smooth. The film did really well, turned out to be one of the biggest blockbusters in China. Salvage Marines, finished production in early April 2022. It hasn’t been released yet. Our teams in China and India have worked tirelessly on this. It's quite challenging to get the two teams in one pipeline, one workflow, and one structure. We are always keen to produce high-quality work, so we try our best to harness the strength of each artist and that, sometimes means bringing them together on a project, in spite of their physical location. Here it becomes extremely important to manage teams and workflow in an efficient and orderly manner. The pandemic period has especially been challenging for our industry too. While office premises were locked-down as per government mandates, projects rolled on as scheduled. In order to meet deadlines without outsourcing work, resources needed careful re-allocation and teams required restructuring. Raysync: Thanks for sharing. May we know your use case in data transfer? Varun: At times we face a problem of disk space in the company . In 2020, covid issues led us to try out cloud servers. We decided to move ahead with your services for a few reasons. One of them being agility — the speedy response and the pro-activeness displayed, while solving issues was a plus point for us. We felt that we were able to save significant amount of time. The other key aspect that drove our choice was the ability to control user accounts and permissions. Raysync is TPN certified, and you have a vast number of functionalities which is always great.

Hasan Köroğlu is the founder of Kadraj Group. His knowledge and experience on the Internet and audio visual technologies as a producer for many years had Kadraj growing fast. Kadraj is the leading company on QC, localization, and delivery services in Turkey, which was established by Hasan in February 2019. It has been 12 years and 8 months until now. It was just a decade ago when Turkish dramas became popular all over the world, just after two years later Kadraj was established. It was perfect timing for their services, and they are working together with the major market actor including producers, distributors, and broadcasters over these years. Today they are the pioneer in this market, in their domain. Here’s the interview between Hasan Köroğlu and Raysync, in which Hasan shared his use case in data delivery and the difficulties his team met in the daily workflow. Raysync: Hi Hasan! Could you please describe your use case in worldwide content delivery? Hasan: Kadraj is the biggest digital delivery hub for Turkish dramas and Turkish series. Keeping in mind the demand for Turkish dramas on the world market that makes our position unique. After the latest progress on internet technologies and almost 95% of the deliveries are completed via internet, just make it clear, we are talking about deliveries of thousands of hours of content every month to over 40 countries and around 150 clients/broadcasters all over the world. This is why we need alternatives all the time and we are pushing the boundaries all the time. Raysync: What difficulties have your team met in the workflow? And how does Raysync helps to solve? Hasan: Especially creating new accounts and user permissions, user management - they are major problems. And there were some issues with the stability of the platforms we were using back then, also bandwidth management was another big problem for us. Raysync solved almost all of them, especially the bandwidth management is really important for us and Raysync did it. We are glad. Raysync: What projects did Raysync handle the data transfer for? Hasan: Hundreds of Turkey series and we have sent over 200 thousands of unique commercial hours of TV content. For the last 10 years, the TV content that has been exported to other countries from Turkey, has been prepared and delivered by Kadraj, by us. Projects Kadraj Participated Raysync: How big the file is for each transfer? Hasan: Let's say it's between 20 gigabytes to one terabytes for each file. May because let’s say a 45 minutes episode is around 20 gigabytes in MXF format, and Turkey series are around two hours long and two hours long 4k raw content is more than a terabyte, those are single files. We have over six petabytes data at the office right now. But keep in mind this is not a big data, this is a volumetric data. We do not have that much files, but the files are really big. Raysync: How do you like Raysync’s data transfer and acceleration services? Hasan: Actually, this is something we really haven't thought about it, because just after implementing the software, the platform into our workflow, we got used it very quickly and feel like we haven't migrated but we were using it from the very beginning. It's really easy, we did like it very much. Because it's easy and it's obviously planned and developed with really experienced people, they know what they're doing. Raysync: What's next plan with Kadraj? Hasan: There are lots of plans. For the last couple of months we are working on ISO 27001 certification and we are in the process of TPN assessment. And this is why we are updating our structure, everything at the office, so there will be lots of changes in the coming a few months, maybe before the new year and a lot will change at Kadraj. Special thanks to Hasan Köroğlu from Kadraj Group.
