Core Post Selects FORscene

Forbidden Technologies has announced that new post-production house Core Post has incorporated FORscene into its workflow.
Founded by industry veterans and former Sumners department heads Tony Greenwood, Matt Brown, and Kate Mather, Core Post opened in October across the road from MediaCityUK.
"FORscene gives us a cloud-based platform for working with footage both within the facility and off site, adding flexibility that is vital, especially for large-scale productions with large volumes of media," said Lucy Swann, facility manager at Core Post.
"We wanted a system that would eliminate the need to create DVDs of rushes and would offer clients an easy way to view and work with their rushes — and the associated metadata — all in one place, and FORscene does just that. The second a media file hits our storage, it is already transcoding to the cloud, allowing production personnel to view material sooner than ever before."
Producers can log in to FORscene from anywhere to view rushes before the edit start.
Uploading the material to FORscene during the ingest process allows producers to view, log, and edit sequences before arriving in the edit suite. Rough cuts created off site can easily be imported into Core Post's Avid® editing environment.
Core Post has already begun using FORscene for a large BBC production called 'Junior Paramedics — Your Life in Their Hands', which follows a group of paramedic science students at different stages of their course.
FORscene was also able to integrate into Avid Unity™, ISIS®, and EditShare® storage environments.
"As the broadcast and production industry in the North of England grows, so, too, does FORscene's presence," said Stephen Streater, Forbidden CEO. "The fact that Core Post has included FORscene in its technical offering from the outset shows that the company recognises the platform's ability to help it attract more clients, particularly when it comes to high-shoot-ratio projects."
