Signiant, the market leader in intelligent file movement software, today announced that Smoke & Mirrors , a leading visual effects and post production company, is utilizing Signiant’s Media Shuttle ™ hybrid SaaS file transfer solution to move large media files quickly, efficiently and securely among more than 1,000 customer, partner and internal users.
Using the Signiant platform, Smoke & Mirrors now moves large files several times faster than it did before when using FTP technologies. The speed and reliability of the Signiant transfers has also enabled the company to cut back on shipping content physically on CDs and media drives and establish more streamlined, efficient workflows, according to Adam Jakubowski, technical operations manager at Smoke & Mirrors.
“Media Shuttle has helped us be more flexible in our own processes – to work much quicker to meet clients’ deadlines and avoid situations where content may not reach its destination at all,” Jakubowski said. “Whenever we talk with people on the frontlines – customers, partners and our own staff – there’s always more of a comfort level now that we’re sending media files over Media Shuttle. Plus, it’s given us more visibility into the volumes of content that are moving through the system.”
Smoke & Mirrors now moves most of its media files using Media Shuttle, sharing content with media professionals who need to review content in various stages of development. File sizes moved over the system range from just a few MB for small audio files to more than 100 GB for larger, extended rich media content.
“We’re actually encouraging users to use Media Shuttle for everything – smaller files all the way up to full TV commercial campaigns – because it’s so efficient,” Jakubowski said.
In the first seven months of active usage, Smoke & Mirrors moved more than 30 TB of content, averaging nearly 1,000 transfers a month and 5 GB per transmission.
“Having access to Media Shuttle has helped Smoke & Mirrors meet a number of deadlines and accelerate the pace of certain projects at strategic times,” Jakubowski said. On one job, a creative agency partner in New York projected that it would take a 280 GB batch of content 24 hours to arrive at the Smoke & Mirrors Shanghai office via FTP. Smoke & Mirrors equipped the partner with a Media Shuttle portal, and the same content moved in a third of the time.
“Smoke & Mirrors provides a perfect example for how Signiant Media Shuttle’s fast, reliable and secure technologies can drive significant improvements in various media workflows,” said Margaret Craig, CEO at Signiant. “We’re thrilled with the results Smoke & Mirrors has been able to achieve, and we look forward to continuing to help them and others in the industry improve efficiency and accomplish their business goals.”

Forrester: Three Years Into GenAI, Enterprises Are Still Chasing Its True Transformative Value2.4.2026 16:00:00 CEST | Press release
Low AI fluency, uneven adoption, and marginal productivity gains are limiting enterprise-scale impact According to Forrester’s (Nasdaq: FORR) latest report, Accelerate Your AI Voyage, most enterprises are struggling to turn growing AI adoption and investment into measurable business impact. One of the key factors holding businesses back is low artificial intelligence quotient (AIQ) — Forrester’s measure of AI aptitude — with many employees lacking a clear understanding of how to use AI. Other barriers include an overemphasis on productivity-focused use cases, difficulty measuring impact, and siloed adoption within individual functions. While these challenges can leave firms frozen in doubt or indecision, the wait-and-see approach to AI adoption is no longer viable. To unlock AI’s full potential, organizations need to focus on four key areas: Define the business outcomes and success metrics for what they want AI to achieve; identify specific use cases for AI deployment aligned to those
