DVS and Ascent Media enhance HD-digital-intermediate workflow

DVS Digital Video and Ascent Media Group have announced the development of a method for enhancing HD-digital-intermediate (DI) workflow.
The newly installed uncompressed HDStation2U units from DVS provide multiple concurrent real-time HD in- and output for Ascent's 17TB SGI TP-9500 SAN system, making work with the 'virtual telecine' up to four times faster than before.
With DVS and SGI cooperation the Ascent Media Group in Burbank, California, have created a virtual telecine around their SAN system. This encompasses the entire post process including non-linear mastering - from transfer to the final product - through real-time and concurrent execution of multiple processes.
"The through-put of data in our new system allows more time for critical artistic decisions," said Kevin Sanders, Ascent's Director of Engineering.
