TORONTO – Dax LLC, a Los Angeles-based provider of media asset management and distribution services for the TV and film industry, has launched a Canadian office in Toronto.
The company, formerly known as Sample Digital, says U.S. film clients shooting in Canada, or Canadian clients shooting worldwide, will now be able to take advantage of Canadian tax credits thanks to its new Toronto office, which will be called Dax Cloud ULC.
Heading up the DAX Cloud office in Toronto is managing director Thomas Walden, who has worked in a variety of finance and operations functions for some of Canada’s largest entertainment companies including Alliance Atlantis, Cineplex Odeon and Concert Productions International.
Dan Duffin joins the DAX Canadian team overseeing and servicing accounts after a five-year stint as director of professional authoring services and more recently the Capsule Asset Management System for Toronto Post house Creative Post.
Steve Hancock is on the DAX Cloud board of directors. He was founder/CEO of adbeast, the SaaS digital asset management company serving the advertising industry, acquired by DG.
Dax describes its proprietary platform as a highly-secure innovative web-based community used by most major studios and television networks for collaboration and distribution management of content during the production process, for marketing and distribution of final product, and for accessible library management for re-use of production elements, including video, audio, photos and documents.
