B&I LIONS: POWERING MEDIA COLLABORATION AND ENGAGEMENT This partnership kicked off before the Lions’ 2021 tour to South Africa - with players being kept in an isolated “bubble”, touring personnel kept to a minimum and fans unable to travel due to Covid-19. PT SportSuite’s task was to establish a digital media ecosystem that would give the Lions media team: ● Cloud-based access to all Lions digital media IP. ● An efficient solution for sharing the tour’s digital media with sponsors and media partners ● Video playlisting/streaming capabilities across their mobile app and web properties ● A platform that would allow incentivised engagement with at-home fans © PT SPORTSUITE 2021
THE LIONS’ MEDIA PARTNER PORTAL The Lions Media Partner Portal was established. All Lions 3rd party media partners, suppliers and sponsors were onboarded to their own branded cloud dashboard - giving the Lions media team the ability to share content to specific partners or to all partners via a Lions Partner Community dashboard. The Media Partner Portal was coupled with the Lions DAM, with content uploaded to the Portal ingested into the DAM, while inversely, historical content already saved to the DAM could be shared to the Media Partner Portal directly via the DAM’s API plugin. THE LIONS’ DAM A branded Lions DAM (Digital asset Management) platform was established. Powered by industry-leading AWS cloud technology, all historical media assets were migrated into the Lions’ DAM by our team, giving Lions media and marketing personnel a centralised cloud media library with intelligent media services and advanced video/image AI services.
LIONS VIDEO OTT The Lions were looking for a partner to facilitate live and on-demand streaming to the official Lions Mobile App and on-demand streaming to their website. They needed to set up and manage playlists for each Tour fixture and these playlists needed to be customised to cater for multiple simultaneous videos - allowing for multi-angle functionality. The team set up automated processes to transcode all video into the required adaptive bitstream format for web and app playback. PT SportSuite’s video playlist management platform, Imigino Studio, allowed for the setting up of playlists by pulling content from the Lions’ DAM as well as multiple ‘alternative’ video options to cater for the Lions’ unique multi-angle requirement. © PT SPORTSUITE 2021
THE LIONS FAN ZONE The Lions Fan Zone was established to enable engagement from at-home fans by capturing behind-the-scenes fan content via incentivised Fan Challenges. Fans could register to take part in various media Challenges. By registering and submitting, not only were the Lions growing their database of registered fans, the fans themselves were empowered to WHAT THE LIONS SAID contribute to the Tour in a meaningful way while putting themselves in line to win great rewards and discounts on official Lions merchandise. “We are delighted with this latest addition to our digital platforms. We wanted as many people to share how they All fan media, after a simple moderation process, were showing their support for the team and that support was published back to the Lions Fan Zone Wall, was felt by the players as they took on the world champions allowing fans to see what their fellow fans were in South Africa." submitting while creating a “digital Sea of Red”. - Shane Whelan, Director of Digital, Marketing and Communications

MAJOR LEAGUE RUGBY: RE-IMAGINING DIGITAL MEDIA WORKFLOW MLR is North America’s flagship 12-team professional rugby league. With a mission to grow the game in the US, the league wanted to improve media collaboration across the league; simplify matchday media workflow; and provide a way for players and fans to contribute media to the league. PT SportSuite were tasked with implementing a digital media ecosystem in less than three months that would meet MLR’s needs. © PT SPORTSUITE 2021
CENTRALISING MLR’s MEDIA ASSETS IN THE CLOUD PT SportSuite migrated all MLR content into an AWS-powered cloud media library, including advanced services that enabled MLR’s media team to find the right assets at the right time - simply, securely and lightning fast. MEDIA COLLABORATION AND WORKFLOW The MLRMojos web and app platform was implemented to meet all of the league’s media collaboration and sharing needs - a single, multi-team environment where registered users could upload digital media to be securely accessed by media teams across the league - while also allowing the MLR league media team to share edited content back to the teams for further publication and re-use. © PT SPORTSUITE 2021
THE MLR APP MLR wanted to create a preferred destination for mobile-first fans to access matchday content as well as a first port of call for engagement with the league. The MLR App was launched to meet this need. The app features latest MLR news, fixtures, results, team and player statistics, as well as video-on-demand easily managed via the PT SportSuite video playlisting CMS. Fan engagement modules include a dedicated Fan Zone, where fans can take on media challenges for reward, and augmented reality scanning that will bring MLR logos to life. © PT SPORTSUITE 2021
CHANGE MANAGEMENT WHAT MAJOR LEAGUE To help MLR communicate the benefits of the MLRMojos platform to the wider MLR professional community, RUGBY SAID PT SportSuite produced branded communication collateral aimed at generating hype and excitement. "As a conglomerate of 13 start-ups - including our League Office and 12 teams - it was important to find content workflow solutions that enabled us to do a lot more with a lot less. “PT SportSuite’s ecosystem of products help make collection, organization, and distribution more efficient. We look forward to taking the foundation we’ve built this season and enhancing it to ensure a robust digital experience for all our stakeholders.” - George Killebrew, MLR Commissioner © PT SPORTSUITE 2021
