Hi. I work for a video company and have been for a few years already. We've accumulated a huge amount of footage.
All our films are made with FC Studio.

We've done a lot of research on Google but the only professional software that we've found so far that would enable us to manage all our video is Final Cut Server for 2000$.
All other softwares under $2000 vary around $30-50 and are useless and unmanageable.

I'm looking for a software that would work like Aperture but for video. So that whenever I am looking for a specific clip type, I can easily find it (city, company, etc..)

There can't possibly not exist such a software.

Do any of you know any? And how do you organize your footage?



Thank you in advance.

Have you looked at CatDV (http://www.squarebox.co.uk/index.html)?

Hey.
I downloaded both and tried both...
FileMaker is a bit weird and less easy to understand and use than CatDV.
So I'll stick with CatDV.

Thank you to both of you for replying and helping me. :)
