DIGITAL VISION, a provider of picture enhancement systems for film and television post-production, showcased the latest version of its Film Master grading and finishing system, v3.6, and gave a first look at their FILM MASTER 4.0, which has real-time 4K capabilities and a new render accelerator, Turbine. With Film Master v4.0, facilities will be able to begin editing, conforming, grading, and finishing 4K material instantly, without any ingest delays, saving time and storage costs. Unlike 8-bit or 10-bit processing, which can produce crushing and banding in low-detail areas of the color space, Film Master v4.0’s floating point processing will not clip, crush, or generate banding when performing extreme grading or lighting changes. |
