CARLTON TV ORDER DISCREET FLAME

CARLTON TV Birmingham have become the latest broadcasters to order a Discreet flame.
The company have also purchased two combustion desktop compositors and a full set of Sapphire sparks plug-ins. All the systems were sold and will be supported by full-service resellers Red Lorry Yellow Lorry.
The flame will be used for creating title sequences, graphics and commercials, and for producing sophisticated output for Carlton's expanding sports department. The system will be used for programmes such as 'On the Ball', 'The Big Match' and 'UEFA Champions League'.
Peter Smith, Controller of Broadcast Design at Carlton TV, said: "We chose Discreet graphics products because our team of designers felt it gave them a the chance to work on a much broader range of creative features than any other system out there. Being able to add effects by importing plug-ins is essential as projects develop over time."
Promos for Carlton and CITV will benefit from the flame treatment and the combustion systems will be used to pre-build many of the graphics components before they are transferred to the flame for final compositing. (CD)
