ABSTRACT
We present Portal, a modern web interface for creating and managing media and review sessions at Blue Sky Studios. Utilizing a horizontally scalable stack, Portal allows artists and production management to quickly search for and play back media, capture notes with draw-overs, and manage review sessions all from within a web browser. To help ensure success, our media tools team conducted rigorous user story mapping sessions with key management staff across the studio. As a result, Portal has become an integral part of the dailies workflow at Blue Sky.
