POST
FUTURE WORKFLOWS
Over the following pages I have asked some of
the post community’s more prominent voices to share their thoughts. How they are applying the latest technology solutions now and how they see remote workflows evolving.
THE TELEVISUAL VILLAGE FETE ON SET DEMONSTRATION
The Televisual Village Fete took place in the Montague Street Gardens back in the summer. Working with Tom Mitchell, Technical Director at Mission, we built the better part of a picture post house with a live demonstration showing a full colour pipeline from camera negative (straight from a Sony Venice 2.0) to edited 4K HDR IMF deliverable with full 4K HDR monitoring at every station, including DIT, live grade, lab, LTO back-up,
editorial, grading, remote review complete with two- way internet connectivity for VFX pulls and editorial. The production village was set up in the
morning and de-rigged by 8.00pm. It was an exemplary demonstration of what can now be done on set and during production and by early evening we had a short film edited and graded. To make the demonstration work we invited
best of breed vendors to contribute with Mitchell designing the workflow and overseeing the whole. The Sony Venice 2.0 was recording the garden party to 8K X-OCN sitting atop Motion Impossible’s Agito – a modular robotic dolly with full pan and tilt that somehow defies gravity – recording both to media cards and sending proxies to the DIT station via Teradek Bolt 4K for a live grade with SanDisk Professional SSD drives copying CDLs (Colour Decision Lists). The DIT
used AJA’s FS-HDR to switch instantly between SDR and HDR when reviewing the files. The camera cards were copied in the lab
station to Jellyfish OWC’s 10G NAS storage and backed up to Quantum LTO tape drives with copies for physical transit on ArmorLock. From here the media could be viewed in editorial and the grade at the best possible resolution, with Symply Spark local high-performance Thunderbolt 3 storage caching the files. In the editorial station we showed Avid
Media Composer working on Mac Studio and demonstrated a new application that Mitchell had developed called Origami for seamless VFX and DI pulls from on set and working with LucidLink we were able to get them straight to the cloud and the VFX vendor in a managed way where they could be processed and rendered and passed to
REMOTE GRADING FROM THE SOUTH OF FRANCE
Rob Hardy, BSC on set
"The world changed in 2020 when Covid struck and we were forced to work completely remotely. This ultimately led us to take the decision to pull out of Soho and Pinewood as the flexibility of working this way proved to be an absolute game changer. Now based in the South of France (with 1gb internet), we are just completing the grade for Spy Among Friends a 6-part 4k HDR series for Britbox, Sony Pictures and ITV Studios which is being attended by production in Soho.
“Using a selection of platforms, (
Frame.io, Clearview, Davinci to Davinci) we are working on several projects, either arranged direct with production or via local post production facilities in London where the client remotely attends the grade in a review suite connected to us."
