The Fort Smith International Film Festival is conducted with the goal to build a vibrant film culture in the region. This was the second edition of the Fort Smith International Film Festival and was held between Aug. 26-27 2022 at Fort Smith, Arkansas, USA.
This year, FortSmith changed the format of the event and was showcasing the movies at a single physical location. So, the organizers wanted to showcase a set of films in multiple rooms at a fixed schedule. Since the screening schedule for each room was fixed, they wanted to explore an automated manner in which the films can be screened without installing any heavy and expensive equipment or hiring manpower. For them, content security was of utmost priority and concern as a lot of content screening at the film festival was not yet commercially released in the market. Also, the venue had an issue with poor internet connectivity which made things complicated.

‘Building a streaming platform from scratch gives more control’ is a myth. In reality ‘build’ entails engineering, infrastructure, maintenance, compliance, upgrades, scaling, etc with additional cost barriers and time restraints. This webinar breaks down the real-world cost, time, and scalability implications of building vs buying a streaming platform, using a practical checklist approach. The session will help businesses cut through common myths around custom development and understand why many modern streaming businesses choose SaaS platforms like Muvi One to launch faster, reduce risk, and scale globally—without hiring large tech teams. Things the webinar would cover: What “building” a streaming platform actually involves today (engineering, infrastructure, maintenance, compliance, upgrades, scaling). The true cost of build vs buy, including hidden and long-term operational costs. Time-to-market realities like how long ‘buy’ vs ‘build’ realistically takes and the business impact of delayed launches. Scaling challenges across devices, geographies, and monetization models. A decision-making checklist businesses can use to assess readiness, risk, and ROI before choosing build or buy. How SaaS platforms like Muvi One enable faster, lower-risk, globally scalable streaming launches.
