GLASSWORKS CHOOSE DVC’S CLIP RECORDER XTREME FOR NEW TELECINE SUITE
Glassworks, renowned special effects and post
production house based in Soho, London, has chosen a DVC
ClipRecorder XTreme 2K disk recorder as the ideal complement to
its recently installed state of the art Telecine suite. The
ClipRecorder will be used to capture high-resolution material,
up to 2K, and store directly to the Glassworks Storage Area
Network (SAN) in DPX file format.
Richard Underwood, Head of Engineering at Glassworks, outlined
his reasons for choosing the Clip Recorder over other solutions:
“The Clip Recorder gave us the functionality we required for the
suite in a cost effective way. We were looking for a disk-based
device to give instant playback of material, for example to
allow the editors to compare multiple grading shots side by
side. The fact we were able to take the Clip Recorder without
storage and connect directly to our existing SAN means it slots
into our workflow seamlessly.
The device was supplied by DVC’s UK reseller, Pixelution and
will be installed this week.
