BMF
Exchange of BMF-Compliant Metadata in TV Production
The BMF standard provides the universal exchange of metadata in the television production. Furthermore, BMF is the basis for bringing down costs and risks when integrating data interfaces.
Standardised Metadata Exchange with BMF 1.2
IRT’s class model for BMF in the consolidated and advanced version 1.2 is now available.
The BMF class model supports all the television production processes like programme planning, production planning, production, exchange and publication including the documentation. BMF is designed as a non-proprietary class model for metadata and describes the business objects required for the production process as well as their properties.
Interested companies can receive a detailed specification of the BMF class model after online-registration.
