The problem
Placeholder — replace with the real client context. A media production studio was spending hours manually transcoding and watermarking video assets. They needed a desktop tool their non-technical team could operate.
The approach
I built an Electron app with a drag-and-drop queue, spawning ffmpeg child processes for each job. A simple preset system lets the team save and reuse encoding profiles.
The outcome
Processing time dropped by 70%. The tool is now a daily driver for the studio's 20-person team, replacing a mix of manual CLI commands and expensive third-party software.
