You asked for it and now it’s here! Now, in addition to simple upload of video clips to the MediaSilo platform, you can now upload and share other files, too. We’ve added audio, image, document and program file upload to the feature set. You’ll notice the subtle design change in your MediaSilo workspace that makes it easy to upload and share most any file within MediaSilo’s cost-effective video collaboration workflow. See it in action with a simple online video tutorial.
“Incorporating audio, document, image and program file uploads demonstrates MediaSilo’s commitment to our customers,” says Kai Pradel, MediaSilo CEO. “We’ve been working very closely with our subscribers in providing not only a multi-file asset management system that compliments the MediaSilo workflow, but one that provides a seamless, simple and logical user interface.”
This is a big step, regardless of our workflow applications. Now, share headshots, scripts, resumes, spreasheets, and zip files with a few clicks. From mainstream video production to casting, programming development, mainstream corporate communications, online and broadcast journalism or worship we think you’ll love the new feature.
Remember, non-video file upload is a feature we’ve added because of your input. So, if you have suggestions, let us know. Just email us at info@mediasilo.com.

Casting ABC’s Tuesday night hit Wipeout!, presented a monumental task for Endemol USA, the show’s producers. However, online video collaboration and content management leaders MediaSilo enabled the casting team to streamline the process and cut costs and schedules in half.
“I budgeted ten weeks for this project,” said Mikey Glaser, freelance casting director. “With MediaSilo, I did it in five.”
Glaser also said similar projects would require up to ten casting assistants, but in using MediaSilo he was able to complete the project with just one. Wipeout!, is just one of many examples of Hollywood’s move to MediaSilo for pre-production projects like casting, collaboration and approval. Other clients include Freemantle Media and TBS.
“It’s a great fit,” says MediaSilo CEO Kai Pradel. “MediaSilo was born from a production environment, so our workflow is custom tailored to casting workflows.”
“Wipeout! is a good example of how the MediaSilo online tool suite can cut costs and dramatically increase productivity in the demanding and time-sensitive network or syndication production environment,” he said.
“I’ll never do another project without it,” added Glaser.
MediaSilo recently announced an aggressive pricing structure offering limited free service and an unlimited storage and bandwidth solution for $99 a month. The new pricing packages are believed to be the most competitive in the industry. Pricing and plans are also featured on the company’s website at http://mediasilo.com
