BZ It’s not just the cost of the storage per TB. It’s the processing of that storage that carries an exponential cost. That expands in the cloud as well with every file transfer and download you request. The additional cost of that data storage travels throughout the pipeline and then the additional time to move it around has a people cost. That speed is so important on set and that is why High Density Encoding (HDE) has such a huge value as well as a data savings of up to 50%. It’s about DYNAMIC fitting in to create those efficiencies as an operational partner.
AR It’s an area where costs can run out of control. Looking forward, the world of virtual production requires more and more data - and data processing - again and it requires a simple unified, robust and fast workflow.

in training our team and we’re always linked in globally. When you’re getting CODEX products from DYNAMIC, it feels like you’re getting it from CODEX themselves and with ARRI’s camera growing even more popular, it enhances their cameras’ workflow.
BZ Support has never traditionally been linked to sub-rentals and this has always been a mainstay of DYNAMIC. We changed that. Any extension of the DYNAMIC portfolio has to carry that support, that brand value with it.
AR CODEX is offering the support and the user education alongside us. It’s not just CODEX selling us some products but about making it available to this market.
BZ CODEX isn’t just for the big studios and our goal is to broaden CODEX use as it offers so much to a broader cross section and once they fully understand it, they can adopt it.
THE CODEX PERSPECTIVE
Brian Gaffney, VP of Business Development at CODEX, an X2X Media Group company
Collaborative workflows save time and money. The MediaVault D1200 delivers high performance shared storage in the field with options up to 168TB
“The CODEX RAW workflow has become ubiquitous due to its reliability and support for High Density Encoding. We are very excited to be working strategically with Dynamic Rentals to be able to deliver this workflow as a standard for SONY, ARRI and RED based cameras.”
The MediaVault R3600’s 36 disks can be configured with a total
For professional networking, the CODEX MediaVault R1200 has six 10GbE ports as standard and the option to add 4 more 10GbE ports or even additional 25/50/100GbE ports
capacity up to 504TB, to handle projects of larger scale

“As the data flows, the storage grows on a production as the data is migrated from set to post-production. Just as Dynamic Rentals has been there for their industry rental partners, supplying the latest cameras and capture media, now they can provide the production and post-production companies with shared storage, dynamically delivered, to any of our customers on a global basis.”
TOM JAY SMITH, Chief Sales Officer The way it works is that if a customer takes a 12-month contract, once a project has finished and they’ve backed up the data, we take the units back, clean them and set them up and deliver them ready-to-go for the next project. We’re providing this high-end luxury hardware to give them the most seamless experience without the responsibilities.
Cinematographers love to shoot on the ARRI Mini LF but they are data hungry. With HDE, CODEX have taken that data challenge and reduced the burden by 40 to 50% in simple storage terms and that data saving travels with the data the whole way through the pipeline. CODEX have the best storage solution in the market that bridges on-set with post and you don’t have to worry about buying it anymore.
There’s a security aspect to the story. CODEX is proprietary hardware. When you’re taking a Transfer Drive and putting it into the Vault, nobody can make a copy of it. It’s the integrity of that data as well.
