Band Pro Film & Digital - Cine Gear LA 2015

About

An interview from the 2015 Cine Gear LA Expo at Paramount Studios with Bobby Maruvada at the Band Pro Film & Digital Booth. Band Pro is the most comprehensive resource for digital cinema equipment and technical information in the industry. Band Pro sells a full array of carefully selected, high-end production acquisition equipment and accessories. In this interview Bobby, a Colorist and FilmLight expert, talks with us about FLIP & Daylight, which incorporates the full color-finishing toolset available in Baselight.

Daylight is designed to handle the end-to-end requirements of your dailies workflow, from ingest and review through to the generation of material for editorial, VFX and other deliverables. The application makes use of the core technology from full Baselight systems, but in a Mac OSX software-only package that you can deploy into your near- set environment. The sophisticated look of productions continues to evolve and underwrite the value of the final deliverable. In this environment, colour grading can become too restrictive when it is the final, isolated step in the process. Creative capabilities are transformed when you can develop the look on set with products like FLIP, and access the same information in editorial and VFX via Baselight Editions—so the intent can be communicated early and refined as the production develops.

FLIP is a real-time image processor which applies lookup tables, grades and filter effects to the live output of your camera while you are shooting on set. Inserted directly in the single or dual-link HD-SDI feed between camera and monitor, it utilises GPU accelerated hardware combined with Baselight grading and Truelight 3D LUT technology
to apply looks to your raw footage so you can see exactly what the final grade is going to look like in post.

FLIP removes the need to process raw digital files before you can review your shots and gives you complete freedom to interactively experiment with and compare looks, adjust filters, and push things to the edge, trading off what you can do on set with what is possible in post.
