On Sight announces its Mistika Finishing Suite is a World First
The combination of an SGO Mistika and dual cine80 projectiondesign projectors has given breathtaking results.
London, UK, 16 March 2010: SGO, a leading European developer
of high-end solutions for the post production and broadcast
markets is proud to announce that one of its key London Mistika
customers, On Sight, have declared that their Mistika finishing
suite is a world first. Soho-based On Sight are experts in
support for High Definition and 3D content creation and
management.
The company brings 21 years solid reputation in technology
innovation. Starting out as a post-production equipment hire
company, they were early adopters in high definition and a
result opened up HD Lab, a purpose built HD facility in Soho to
deal with clients growing requirements.
Early 2009 saw them acquire camera rental company Axis Films and
a second base in the heart of the film making community at
Shepperton Studios. Axis Films had worked on the World’s first
live 3D sports broadcast in early 2007 (via BBC Sports for the
Calcutta Cup Rugby) and have a wealth of 3D rigs and acquisition
experience. With On Sight’s forward thinking approach, it was
only natural for the company to continue to invest into both 3D
production and post services.
Later on that year, and as a direct result of Axis’ clients
growing 3D work being passed onto the HD Lab, On Sight purchased
an SGO Mistika 3D stereo editing system, the first company in
London to place an order. Geoff Mills, Director of Sales and
Operations of SGO UK stated: "We have worked closely with On
Sight to provide the perfect tool for their needs." On Sight’s
SGO Mistika is used for high-end stereoscopic finishing and
handles files up to 4K in resolution with real time stereoscopic
editing and 3D colour grading.
Using their London Soho base, On Sight’s 3D Mistika finishing
suite would require the very best in projectors. After much
research, it was projectiondesign that had the best solution
resulting in the first 3D 3-chip DLP stereo projection
installation in the world. projectiondesign suggested using dual
cineo80 projectors in a stereo configuration. The projectors use
ACOP optical colour processing technology and by combining fixed
and motorised optical filters for each colour channel, the
projectors can be optically calibrated with near infinite
accuracy.
The new suite completes an entire 3D solution from On Sight,
with their camera rental department Axis Films offering an array
of 3D rigs and camera systems such as RED and SI-2K. On Sight
have recently worked on a number of 3D projects for music,
commercial and feature clients. The combination of an SGO
Mistika and dual cine80 projectiondesign projectors has given
breath-taking results every time.
