Dropbox launches products built for creatives

Dropbox has launched several features designed for the creative industry.

The announcement:

The sudden shift to remote work accelerated existing trends like the rise of the creator and freelancer economies, expansion of distributed teams, and the increased use of rich media and video files. As more work is done in more places using more types of files, distributed teams and creatives need solutions that allow them to work anytime, from anywhere, across all their workflows. That’s why we’re introducing three new product experiences that help you do more with your content in Dropbox.*

Communicate clearly and save time with Dropbox Capture
For many, remote work has meant endless hours of video meetings, constant chat messages, and long emails in place of the kind of dynamic communication that comes from being in the same room. Customers who work across time zones have told us they need new ways to provide context for their content without adding more meetings and emails.

Dropbox Capture is an all-in-one visual communication tool that helps team members share their work and ideas asynchronously.

Replace lengthy emails and documents with short video messages to communicate with your team in less time
Bring clarity to your message by visually presenting your work through easy-to-take screen recordings, GIFs, and screenshots
Convey context and connect more deeply with personalized messages
Free up your calendar and avoid impossible meeting scheduling across timezones by recording and sharing status updates and work-in-progress with your team

Today, Capture is in beta across personal and business plans and can be accessed on its website.

“I often struggle with time zones at my company because we operate internationally. It’s hard to share ideas, because there’s only so much you can get across over written messages. With Dropbox Capture, you can actually show the person what you’re looking at, point things out, and convey it with your own voice.”—Mackenzie Davis, a Dropbox customer in the consulting industry
