External producers cut and pull clips based on creative direction. I don't believe we do web-based transfer/viewing. We send out Digibeta's to all the vendors since these are features (Home Entertainment not Television). Clips for web-based media technically are pulled in-house, where I'm given timecodes and speak to specific vendors to have those clips created on BetaSP's or MiniDV's which get encoded out of house to their respective websites. Amazon is the only site we send DBC's directly to, AOL and Fearnet.com have their own liason I work with, who orders through me.
