Thomson contributions to IP-RACINE
Viper
In the beginning……….. there was VIPER, but the workflow was cumbersome
and not well understood by everybody
and then IP-RACINE came along and We started to work together with theEuropean players active in DC
What we did in IP-RACINE;For the VIPER camera we worked on
VIPER colour characterisation with Filmlight and othersMetadata solutionsRecording solutions
For the future we researchedHigh bandwidth flexible transmission systemHigher frame rates and mechanics
Viper
VIPER unique characteristics– Maximum possible colour space from CCD sensors
– All output from sensors available for storage
– Straightforward operation, easier familiarity for film crews– Minimal use of menus and video style feature set
– On-set preview of clips, including trialing of finished look– LuT can be applied and tested, while still on set
– Compact and lightweight mechanical structure.– Camera can be placed in very confined spaces
Viper
Metadata solutions– Viper outputs metadata direct to the HDSDI stream
Follows the SMPTE standard, and remains with the stored material in to post production
– User defined metadata can be entered separately, and is stored with each clip (assumes Venom recorder)
Metadata can be entered via bluetooth transmission
Viper
VENOM recording solutionIn IP-RACINE we complemented the VIPER camera with the
Venom FlashPak: a complete, portable solution for digital cinematography content origination. Dockable, solid-state recorder No moving parts, compact, lightweight Creates a complete, portable production solution that is durable and ruggedExtends the capabilities of the Viper FilmStream™ Digital Cinematography Camera System
Viper
When Viper was first introduced it was a radical departure fromall that had gone before
– Five years on it is still able to compete successfully and producecomparable results to the best new product available.
We think that to offer a make-over for Viper would be a understate the Cinematography industry, and the product we candeliver
– Its more sensible to stretch beyond and push the development further, – Flexing and stretching newer technologies to get the best from them– giving a better toolbox for the Cinematography Community with new
features and major performance improvements
Digital Cinematography, moving on
Research: higher bandwidth transmission10Gig Ethernet file based transmission has been researched
for the futureEnough bandwidth for all applicationsReduce wiringFlexible: can carry all types of signalsSend DPX files instead of video streams
Viper
Core items that are now of greatest interest– Dynamic range– Colour Space– Transmission methods and bandwidth– Storage
Digital Cinematography, moving on
No specific information is available at this timeBut please stay tuned
THANK YOU
