Backlight’s iconik Media Management Solution Integrates with Final Cut Pro, Providing a Faster, Streamlined Workflow for Video Production

Integration empowers Final Cut Pro users to search for media across any storage and bring it directly into their editing timeline

BOSTON — (BUSINESS WIRE) — November 27, 2023 — Global media and entertainment technology company, Backlight, is making video creation workflows easier and faster with a new integration between its cloud-native media management and collaboration hub, iconik, and Apple’s Final Cut Pro (FCP). The integration aligns iconik’s flexible and accessible media management, search, and collaboration tools with Apple’s Final Cut Pro’s editing workflows.
