Clesh (Clip Load Edit SHare) is a cloud-based video editing platform designed for the consumer. Online communities have integrated Clesh into their own websites to manage the creation of user generated content. The technology is based on the FORscene platform used mainly by the post production industry. To use either system the Java platform is required on the client device.

Video, audio, and graphical content is uploaded via a standard web browser, a mobile device such as a phone / tablet, or software installed onto a desktop (for Firewire DV capture). The hosted material can then be reviewed, searched, edited, and published online by anyone with a standard web browser or compatible mobile device.

Clesh supports storyboard shot selection, frame-accurate editing, transitions and various other functions such as; pan, zoom, colour and light correction, and audio levels. Content can be published in formats such as a Podcast, Mpeg2, HTML5 video or in a proprietary Java format.

Cloud-based software provides greater scope for sharing information and collaborating compared to LAN or desktop based systems. Users of Cloud-based software rely on the cloud's owner for adequate security, performance and resilience.

Clesh does not assert any rights over uploaded contact which remain with the Author. This is in contrast with platforms such as YouTube which do assert some rights over content uploaded.

Features

Some of the services available to Clesh users:

  • Real-time video rendering including effects and transitions
  • Multiple audio tracks
  • Secured log-on
  • Frame accurate timeline for fine cut editing
  • Logging / meta-data annotation assigns text to portions of video (usable by Clesh and web search engines)
  • Storyboard assembles rough cuts using drag-and-drop
  • Import, host, organise and search for media (DV tape and various video, audio, and still image formats)
  • Publish content to in formats such as podcast, MPEG-2, web (Java Applet), Flash, Ogg, HTML5 and JPEG
  • Chatrooms to talk to other Clesh users
  • Showreel (a gallery for publishing material visible to internet users)
  • Moderation for approval of material prior to distribution downstream
  • Re-branding and integration support for white-label deployment

Technology

Clesh is based on the same technology as FORscene. An array of servers on the internet backbone provide the cloud computing platform to host Clesh. As a white-label solution Clesh would be branded and hosted per the user requirement.

User Interface

End-users access Clesh with a rich user interface on clients such as standard Java-enabled Web Browsers and / or Android enabled mobile devices such as tablets.

History

Clesh was launched January 2006 and subject to several upgrades during the year to extend functionality including; storyboard, podcasting, moderation, chat and a showreel. During 2007 consumers are offered Clesh via a subscription model. Upgrades include Web Start and graphics upload. Mr Paparazzi selects Clesh as the platform to host its video offering and TrueTube does the same in 2008 by choosing to use Clesh to manage its video portal. Several further upgrades are applied and included; better audio quality, image enhancement controls, transitions, fades, titles, and additional publishing options such as JPEG. In 2010 a version of Clesh demonstrated on an Android OS tablet device (Samsung Galaxy S Tab), and several upgrades applied including; HTML5 publishing, pan, zoom, and overlays.
