“This is excellent news for both Lightworks and QScan customers,” comments LWKS CEO, Peter Lambert. The QScan AQC software is used by high-profile media companies such as NHK, Apple and Netflix, as well as leading post production houses, broadcast facilities, OTT operators, media management companies, and anyone involved in the media content creation and distribution workflow to ensure that content meets the appropriate technical standard. Featuring a simple and intuitive UI, easy timeline editing and trimming, and real-time audio and video FX, it is an increasingly popular choice for a new generation of content creators on platforms such as YouTube and Twitch. Lightworks was used on projects which lead to Oscar wins for Best Editing including ‘The Departed’, ‘The Aviator’ and, most recently, it was used on Academy Award nominee Netflix’s ‘The Irishman’. With an installed base of over 1 million users and a rich heritage of work, including ‘LA Confidential’, ‘Pulp Fiction’, and ‘The King’s Speech’, it has been used in many high-profile television and film projects. Lightworks is one of the industry’s most prominent and successful NLEs. Key members of the Lightworks and QScan software development teams are also joining LWKS, ensuring continuity of development efforts.
The new company is being led by Chairman, James Richings, previously the joint managing director of EditShare EMEA and CEO, Peter Lambert, previously EditShare’s Asia VP of Sales and a former Country Manager with Avid. LWKS Software Ltd is pleased to announce the acquisition of two market-leading products from EditShare – Lightworks NLE and QScan AQC system.
