Origami Unveils Powerful New Workflow Automation Features at IBC 2025 — Delivering a True Single Source of Truth for Media and Metadata
Post-production teams are drowning in complexity: lost metadata, fragmented workflows, and endless hours wasted reconciling information.
At IBC 2025, Origami cut through that chaos with a groundbreaking suite of new features designed to deliver the industry’s long-awaited single source of truth and unlock unprecedented efficiency across film, TV, and VFX pipelines.
Origami is the industry’s first workflow automation platform built for cinematic workflows that unifies media and metadata across disparate on-prem and cloud storage. By eliminating manual handoffs and automating repetitive steps, it ensures productions can see, manage, and deliver their assets faster than ever.
Born from on-set experience and a mission to free creatives from digital admin, Origami automates the “middle work” that slows productions down, intelligently managing media and metadata so artists and technicians can focus on their craft.
At IBC 2025, Origami showcased its latest innovations, including:
- Trimming at Source — Dramatically accelerates workflows and slashes file transfer and storage requirements by trimming media directly at the source, making hybrid on-prem/cloud storage seamless.
- Third-Party S3 Support — Expands connectivity beyond AWS to providers like Wasabi and Backblaze, giving users a unified view of all storage — cloud and on-prem — in one platform.
- Automated Metadata Ingestion — Intelligently ingests and reconciles critical metadata from .ale files, eliminating manual entry and ensuring data integrity across the pipeline.
- Version 0s & Automated Colour Confidence Checks — Brings colour accuracy and efficiency to VFX workflows, generating preview plates with LUT/CDL applied and automating checks between offline and version 0s.
“At Origami, we’re proving that automation and scalability don’t have to come at the cost of flexibility or budget,” said Sanjay Mistry, CCO at Origami. “These new features are designed to help studios work faster, collaborate more effectively, and stay in control of their costs.”
“Our focus has always been on more than just building a powerful platform,” added Tom Mitchell, CTO at Origami. “We’re obsessed with thoughtful design — so using Origami feels simple, intuitive, and effortless. It’s technology that clears space for creativity.”
