Bristol-based post house streamlines project setup by connecting scheduling with EditShare’s intelligent media platform
Boston, MA, 9 October 2025: EditShare, the technology leader in intelligent shared storage and media management, today announced that UK post-production facility Films at 59 has used the EditShare Open API platform to connect its scheduling system directly into EditShare’s media environment. The result is a fully automated, metadata-driven workflow that eliminates manual setup and accelerates production start-up.
API-Driven Integration for Instant Project Setup
Films at 59’s technical team led the integration work, developing a direct connection between Farmers Wife, a widely used scheduling, project management, and resource planning platform, and EditShare’s EFS shared storage and FLOW media management. The project was also supported by EditShare channel partner Digital Garage.
With the API integration in place, scheduling a job in Farmers Wife now automatically:
- Creates a dedicated media space in EFS
- Provisions and assigns team members based on their roles
- Applies storage quotas to match the project’s scope
- Links project metadata in FLOW, ensuring assets are organized and accessible from day one
By building this API-driven connection, Films at 59 has ensured a seamless transition from booking to production-ready, without manual configuration or IT overhead. “We had it up and running really quickly,” said Jamie Lawrence, Head of Technical Operations at Films at 59. “Now, every time a job is booked in Farmers Wife, the media space is built, the team is connected, and everything is ready to go.” The integration has significantly reduced setup time, minimized human error, and guaranteed every project begins within a consistent, structured media environment.
“EditShare’s Open API framework made this integration straightforward and highly effective,” said Sean Bradley, Regional Sales Director, Northern Europe at EditShare. “The Films at 59 team took the initiative to connect their scheduling and media systems, and now they move from scheduling to editing without touching a single admin panel. It’s a powerful example of how our open architecture empowers customers to design workflows that fit their needs.”
