Our work reaches millions of Indians from diverse regions, consuming content in a multitude of Indian languages.
Churning out content at a steady pace is TCS’ superpower. Time and again, Media & Entertainment companies, including production companies, have relied on us to execute a large quantum of post-production work seamlessly, efficiently, and with high standards.
TCS is now committed to extending its scale and heft into the opportunity of making the play more dominant in other verticals - specifically its Brands offerings. The digital age requires brands to communicate around the clock across various formats and platforms.
TCS creates post-based content for quick deployment and re-purposes legacy content or re-packages existing content in fresh ways to fit a business' evolving needs. These include product pack changes, AVs, Animation work, Animatics/Narrimatics, 3D Models, print artwork and much more.
PFT also powers TV Ad spot delivery to several of the country’s top brands ~ delivering ads to TV networks takes time and effort. It gets all the more complex when many networks & channels are involved, and the ad spot has multiple duration & language versions, too. PFT's proprietary Cloud technology CLEAR® Express is a super-fast solution that manages all these complexities with speed and security.
