Swagit Productions, LLC has partnered with the government of Fort Bend County, TX to provide a Hands-Free Video Streaming® solution that will integrate with their existing agenda management software. With the addition of Swagit’s EASE solution, Fort Bent County has taken the next step towards increasing transparency and broadening accessibility to the local government.
Swagit Productions, LLC today announced that it has paired with the local government of Fort Bend County, TX to provide the county and its residents with access to the EASE video-streaming solution. EASE is a highly adaptable, Hands-Free Video Streaming® solution that greatly reduces the amount of man-hours needed to produce professional streaming content.
The main reason for Fort Bend’s decision to choose EASE for their video streaming needs was its ability to integrate seamlessly into the county government’s existing agenda management solution.
This functionality allows users to browse the county’s meeting agendas, select specific items that have been linked to a given point in the meeting.
“Their residents are the ones that will truly benefit from this integration,” said Natascha Ross of Swagit. “The links inside the agenda are clickable and supporting information and attachments can all be accessed in the media player while watching the video.”
The EASE solution will also make it possible for residents of Fort Bend County to stream Commissioner Court meetings to mobile devices.
“By integrating EASE with their existing agenda management software, Fort Bend County has taken the next step towards increasing transparency and broadening community participation to the government,” said Ross. “If communities they serve benefit, then so do our clients. That kind of service is something we take great pride in.”
The EASE solution is highly adaptable and supports a wide range of file formats. EASE automates the manually intensive tasks of indexing and time-stamping video. With Swagit and EASE carrying the load, staff members will no longer have their time monopolized by these time-intensive tasks.
