Digital Vision, a supplier of picture enhancement systems for film and television postproduction, announced at NAB its latest technology developments, including a new product called Digital Vision Dailies. Additionally, significant investment in R&D has enabled Digital Vision to add On-Set capabilities to the Film Master color enhancement system and Spirit Telecine Control for all of its products.

Digital Vision Dailies
Digital Vision Dailies is a future-proofed platform that provides a complete workflow solution encompassing all facets of the dailies process, increasing throughput and providing more flexibility to productions, whether shot on film, video or data. Multiple workstations can work together to streamline workflow, allowing all logging, ingest, syncing and output to be handled through a simultaneously accessible common database.

Integration with popular telecines such as the Digital Film Technology Spirit and Cintel C-Reality is included with the Dailies product and is available as an option on all of Digital Vision's other software products. Audio can be synced on the timeline or via metadata and shots then output to QuickTime H.264 and ProRes, MXF Avid DNxHD, DVD, Blu-ray, HD and SD video.

”Digital Vision Dailies empowers a nonlinear dailies environment and offers unparalleled flexibility to meet clients' needs for a wide variety of deliverables,” comments Digital Vision president Simon Cuff. ”No other dailies solution offers the versatility, speed and flexibility of Digital Vision Dailies, which can be bundled with DVO Enhance to further improve picture quality at lower bit rates.”

Digital Vision Adds On-Set Capabilities to Film Master
Digital Vision will be adding On-Set capabilities to the Film Master system, bringing the power of its DI solution onto the shoot itself. Designed to be used standalone or combined with Dailies, it allows productions to track color decisions made during the shoot. Material can be monitored though 3D LUTs, and users can create and apply different looks to the footage in real time, storing grading notes in either ASC CDL format or, for more advanced multi-layered effects, Digital Vision’s own Note format. The On-Set module can integrate with field recorders such as the Codex system and provide real-time monitoring of the look directly off the camera feed.

Digital Vision Joins ARRIRAW Program
Additionally, Digital Vision has joined the ARRIRAW partner program to allow real-time deBayer of D21 signals along with the color correction.

”Whether you are shooting digital film on location, working on VFX at full uncompressed resolution, offline editing sound and pictures, or simply checking shots on a laptop, Digital Vision gives you what you need in the form you need it, when you need it—set-wide or worldwide,” concludes Cuff.
