10/12 bit log/linear, uncompressed/wavelet compressed, single file stereoscopic recording, realtime FCP color and geometry, more
Cineform:
-12 bit linear/10 bit log uncompressed/wavelet compression tech
-workflow solutions - Adobe & FCP pretty well worked out
-new stereoscopic recording formats - left/right eye in one file - big deal
-new FCP workflow allows for realtime, while playing color and making stereoscopic adjustments on the fly AS IT PLAYS
-other tools and niftiness
-playout to Kona card for 3D stereoscopic display
My takeaway - I’d long admired their compression tech, but since it lived outside of the RT accelerated engine, whaddaya gonna do? It is still outside the engine, but they are making it do realtime color correction, realtime stereoscopic geometry corrections (X/Y offsets, keystoning, etc.)
Should run even better on Gulftown based Macs sometime (next year?), with 6 cores per processor - with they have dual or quad processors then (12 or 24 procs)?
DAMNED impressive! Read on after the jump.
