# Media processing use cases

This section illustrates [media processing](https://doc.sitecore.com/ch/en/users/content-hub/media-processing.html "Media processing") best practices with concrete use cases.

## Use case 1

As a Sitecore Content Hub external agency user, I want a downloadable, high-resolution rendition to use in my local design applications, so I can deliver it to my client as a banner for their next marketing campaign.

Proposed solution:

- In the **Image** flow, create a high-resolution JPEG, 16:9, 3400x2200 rendition, and save the link as new.
- In the **Vector** flow, create a high-resolution PNG, no background, 16:9, 3400x2200 rendition.

## Use case 2

As a Content Hub Digital Asset Management (DAM) user, I want a downloadable, low-resolution rendition for stock images or brand photography, stored in DAM for use in my PowerPoint presentations.

Proposed solution:

The desired resolution is lower than the *Preview* rendition resolution, so you can create a low-resolution rendition from the *Preview* rendition.

## Use case 3

As a wCMS user, I want different crops available for our website components to embed as a public link in our corporate website and marketing campaign landing pages.

Proposed solution:

The following table lists [transformation](https://doc.sitecore.com/ch/en/users/content-hub/create-a-transformation.html "Create a transformation") examples that you can use.

| Component name | Dimension | Suffix | Notes |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Hero Banner -Medium | 1008x952 | HeroMedium_Dt | Retina ready |
| Half Width Banner | 564x475 | HalfWidth |  |
| Auto Play Video | 530x370 | AutoVideo |  |
| Teaser Component | 542x326 | Teaser |  |
| CTA with Background Image | 570x344 | CtaBackground |  |
| CTA Overlapped Image -Left | 707x392 | CtaOverlappedLeft | This crop needs to apply transparency. |
| CTA Overlapped Image -Right | 597x400 | CtaOverlappedRight | This crop needs to apply transparency. |
| Insights Article -Hero | 960x540 | InsightsArticleHero |  |
| Insights Article -Feature | 716x465 | InsightsArticleFeature |  |

> [!note]
> Extending the logic in wCMS automatically adds the transformation query string inside the public link when embedded in specific components or page templates.

## Use case 4

As a social media manager, I want a few standard crops available for social media campaigns on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Instagram.

Proposed solution:

Create the following renditions.

| Platform | Dimension | Suffix |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn | 1200x628 | Social_1200x628 |
| Instagram | 1080x1080 | IN_1080x1080 |

> [!note]
> If there is no integration to a social media management platform, make the renditions downloadable for offline processes.
