About
An interview from the 2014 International Broadcasting Convention with Nicolas Bourdon of EVS. EVS Broadcast Equipment designs leading broadcast and media production systems for sports, news and TV entertainment. Its innovative Live Slow Motion system revolutionized live broadcasting, and its reliable and integrative tapeless solutions are now widely used for non-linear editing and 3D HD productions across the globe. In this interview Nicolas talks with us about updates to Xsquare and IPLink.
A new software update for Xsquare will allow EVS files to be streamed to shared storage and then imported into FCPX. (Whilst still recording!) This matches the very familiar tried and trusted workflow that EVS had with FCP7.
The choice of codecs are ProRes 422, DVCProHD, AVC Intra 100 and, should they get enough requests for it, XDCAM HD. The later needs some more work as although the file will get imported, some artefacts are present.
IPLink for Adobe is a plugin panel extension for use with Adobe Premiere Pro CC. It can be used in those situations where it is desirable to be able to access clip elements that are made available for editing by IPDirector whilst the live event is taking place. In this case, access to the underlying media files are made using shared storage that is managed by IPDirector.
The IPLink for Adobe plugin panel allows the users to be able to search for clip elements based upon the IPDirector held metadata (Clips, Bins, Logs) and be able to preview and use the associated files stored on the shared storage. In this way the users do not have to navigate and import clip elements directly from the shared storage and allow direct access to the files from Premiere Pro CC without having to move or copy files to the local workstation storage.
