ABOUT PROJECT
About company:
Remark is an online collaboration tool that enables individuals to play, annotate, review, and approve videos. The main aim of the project is to enable users to exchange information about movies. This is a perfect solution for the film industry, where you can accelerate the production of films from different industries (eg. advertising, documents, interviews, reports, etc.).

1. PROCESS
The origins of work on this project date back to the early years of RWM. Initially, the project was to serve as a survey aggregator, but in 2013 it was renamed as an application dedicated to video creators. The main idea was to simplify communication between the editor and the client.
The developed editor generates a video file and then shares it with the client, who was able to share his insights on specific timestamps. In addition, it also has the ability to edit specific movie frames to change the composition. Remark was equipped with the option to include voice notes at a selected moment in the edited video.
After a while, Remark became part of a larger platform designed for the video production market. The project was maintained by our team for about 8-9 years.
Tomasz, Senior RoR Developer
“Remark is an application developed by our team for about 6 years. During this period the technological stack changed and evolved into the latest technology, which most of them are: Ruby on Rails, Backbone, CoffeeScript, Sass and Haml. In the application, you can also find a module written in angular. We have put a lot of work into the maintenance of the video player, which is the core functionality. It is dynamically adapted to the source of the video material, while preserving the same UI, so that the user does not feel lost. Streamlining source files from a variety of less common file-sharing services is also a great challenge, as well as a great opportunity to explore such solutions on a large scale.”

WORKING WITH VIDEO CONTENT
SYNCHRONIZED MOVIE PLAYBACK
In addition, Remark allows for synchronous playback of movies so that each viewer can accurately see the same at the same time. And keep in touch with other people by adding comments.
INTEGRATIONS
SERVICES POWERED BY REMARK
Remark is also a solution used by Georgetown University for which it has been optimized for functionality and visual. Other services can be easily integrate with Remark by using API, which allows for the quick and effective use of implemented solutions within their own service (e.g StudioNow).
Quite interesting was the implementation of authorization using SLAM technology (The Service Level Agreement Manager (SLAM) is used to establish an agreement between customer and provider about capacity and quality targets. SLAM is using INDIGO IAM for authentication and INDIGO CMDB for configuration and authorization for providers.). As a result, any university user with an internal ID in the facility’s system could easily authorize on our project, where it was used for collaborative course viewing, where students could ask questions through comments.
