Eye And Eye Productions: A Creative Hub in Guadeloupe
Raysync: Hi Patrice, Thank you for joining us today. Your journey as a journalist, producer, and independent production director has been quite diverse. Could you share more about your experiences and your current role at Eye And Eye Productions in Guadeloupe?
- Patrice Abaul: Hello, it's a pleasure to be here. I'm Patrice Abaul, and I am an associate of Eye And Eye Productions. I live in Guadeloupe, where I have a production company that specializes in cinema, commercials, TV shows, and more.
Raysync: Guadeloupe’s natural beauty must offer a rich backdrop for your creative projects. Can you highlight some of your recent endeavors?

How Patrice Abaul Streamlines His Workflow with Raysync
Raysync: You've mentioned the importance of keeping Guadeloupe technologically connected. Before discovering Raysync, how did you handle large file transfers like FTP? What led you to explore other solutions, and how has Raysync improved your workflow?
- Patrice Abaul: I've used various solutions such as Raysync, Masv, Aspera, and Signiant, each with varying results depending on the project. However, Raysync has notably enhanced efficiency, particularly evident in reducing transfer times from days to mere hours for substantial data volumes.
Raysync: How did you come across Raysync, and what benefits have you observed in your production processes since adopting it?
- Patrice Abaul: I discovered Raysync while browsing the web during a layover at Miami Airport. I was looking for a solution to transfer large files quickly because FTP was just too slow. Since using Raysync, the efficiency of our file transfers has significantly improved. For instance, transferring 3 TB of files, which used to take 2 days, now takes just a few hours!

Raysync: Considering your extensive experience, how would you rate Raysync's customer and technical support in addressing your needs?
