Catalog a drive once, then put it away. You can still search it, scrub it and send clips from it without plugging it back in.
Editors: J K L work here.
Smaller than the render cache you forgot to clear.
The shoot wraps. The cards go to a drive, the drive gets a sharpie label, and that label is the last searchable thing about it. Eighteen months later a client wants the drone shot of the bridge, and you're plugging in drives one at a time, trying to remember which silver LaCie it was. Every shelf has a drive labeled misc. Nobody has ever found anything on it on purpose.
It's all still there. You just can't search a sharpie.
Your original files are never moved or changed.
Point VAMP at any drive or folder. It reads every clip (name, camera, codec, timecode) and makes a small scrubbable preview of each one.
The catalog lives on your laptop. Browse, scrub and listen with the drive in a closet, a fire safe or another city.
Search names, keywords, cameras, faces and spoken words. When you need a master, plug the drive in, or let an editor request it and VAMP delivers it from your drive.
Across every drive you've cataloged, plugged in or not.
Filenames, keywords, cameras and spoken words across every drive you've cataloged, with fuzzy matching.
Speech becomes searchable text locally. No service, no per-minute fee, and nothing leaves your computer.
Hover to skim, drag to scrub, play with synced audio.
An editor finds a shot in your catalog from anywhere and requests it. VAMP pulls that one master off your drive and delivers it. Part of the subscription.
Tags for people, setting and action, so you can search your footage like a stock library. Part of the subscription.
Checksum-verified offload with an MHL manifest. Re-verify later to prove the drive you shelved in March is intact in November.
Keep your masters off-site, in deep archive. Pull back a whole file or just one clip.
VAMP stores the catalog and small previews, so editors can search and scrub from anywhere. When they need a shot, only that clip is sent.
No bot, no ticket. It goes to people who have been handling footage for twenty-five years, so it's probably not the first time we've heard it. Or email [email protected].
