With the asset sizes they are talking about (hundreds of terabytes), how does it make it feasible to do this over the wire? Even with 1Gbps connection, it will take ~10 days to upload a single 100TB original camera file. And there could be several.
Wouldn't surprise me if they had something like this in a few cities with big production teams. There must've been pipelines in place from when 35mm was the standard for movies, and crews needed to get hours of footage developed and over to various people for review each day.

A single file isn't 100TB - an entire production of OCF is ~200TB. A single take is typically 10-200GB depending on a variety of factors.
