Fusion complete post on 'Treasure Hunt'

Fusion Post Production have finished all picture and audio post on a 5x60' pilot series of 'Treasure Hunt' for Chatsworth TV, which is to broadcast on BBC2 from Monday 16 - Friday 20 December at 6pm each evening.
The original Channel 4 series, which featured Anneka Rice and Kenneth Kendall, was last seen in 1989. The new version features BBC Breakfast presenter Dermot Murnaghan in the studio and Suzi Perry, Grandstand's Superbikes commentator, in the helicopter.
Hester Davies, Series Producer at Chatsworth TV, said: ''We have tried to modernise the show without losing the essence of the original format.
"We decided to put all five programmes through Fusion, from offline to audio dubbing. It was a great test for a facility that had just opened and Fusion came out of it really well. We are hoping to make a full series of Treasure Hunt for the UK and are discussing overseas possibilities, and we will certainly go back to Fusion for the post-production."
The offline was completed on five Media Composers linked with Fusion's recently purchased Avid Unity LANshare shared storage system.
The series was graded using Pogle and conformed on Fusion's new Symphony systems, with the online completed in the linear suite. The audio was mixed using Pro Tools.
