Marketing and Communications
Rich media content—including video, audio, and podcasts—has become central to how an office of communications delivers the message and vision of a university or college, both internally and to the world at large.
Whether a marketing group is seeking to integrate media delivery into an institution’s public website; message prospective students with media clips about particular degree programs; or produce content or marketing media that will be delivered to websites external to institutional sites and systems—streaming media is now mission-critical to the strategies of marketing and communications offices to a greater degree than ever before.
The ShareStream Rich Media Platform allows communications offices to operate as state-of-the-art online media broadcasters to achieve the maximum value from their content and brand on campus and beyond.
