While working on special effects for Ridley Scott's blockbusting film, Gladiator world-renown production house The Mill needed to send material for the director's approval from London to Los Angeles daily. The production team pioneered a system of transporting electronic media via the Internet rather than using overnight couriers. Realizing that this solution was a technological building block that could benefit similar industries they established BEAM.TV. Today the company is the media industry standard for digital archiving and delivery. Core services include storing TV, radio and print material as digital files on the web. BEAM.TV has more than 70,000 registered users and over 500,000 pieces of archived media. Their entire application is written in PHP.
