Platform Media is a leading content production house, creating numerous podcasts for the likes of the BBC, The NFL and William Hill; as well as their own highly successful shows including The Good, The Bad and The Rugby and Private Story with Ami Charlize.

Beyond just creating captivating audio, Platform Media are passionate about developing media brands which are publishing content throughout the week, adding value to their followers and fostering a community around their passions.

With an already extensive skill set needed to produce audio and video, asking their teams to create additional graphic assets on top of that could have been a daunting task. The results might have been subpar, as they lacked the skills and experience to use complicated design software.

However, Format has been able to not only solve this problem, but help increase the amount of content they’ve been able to produce. Once templates have been agreed, designed and uploaded into Format – anyone in the production team has been able to enter the app and create pixel perfect assets, in a fraction of the time and without any of the stress which usually exists between colleagues waiting for each other to execute tasks based on their skill sets.

If time is money, then Format has made me rich.

Format has been a tool that has not only saved me time, but it has also reduced mistakes, increased output and smoothed out the relationship with brands and clients when the pressure is on.

It’s an essential social media tool in a world where speed is everything.

Craig Swayne, Head of Social, Platform Media
Format

It makes my job easier, less stressful and less time consuming, meaning I have more time to think creatively and about other aspects of my job. I can focus on the wider picture rather than the specific details – therefore enabling me to do a better job overall. The impact this has on the business is that we can produce higher quality work, much quicker. It’s far easier to meet tight turnaround times.
