Digital Vision Supplies The Farm

Digital Vision, a supplier of picture enhancement systems for film and television post-production, has announced that leading London post production company The Farm Group has purchased a second Film Master colour grading system.
The second machine is installed at Farm-subsidiary Uncle, where it has so far been used on projects as diverse as The Mighty Boosh (BBC3) and Wild at Heart (ITV1).


David Klafkowski, Technical Director at The Farm Group said: “Our colourists saw all the nonlinear devices currently available but for the type of work that we were going to be doing they simply preferred the Film Master.
"The functionality of the GUI and control surface was right for them, the panel has the feel of a solid piece of engineering.”


The Film Masters are running on the DVS Workstation and SANs and complement the linear grading suites are still run across the group. “Our initial brief was to be able to replicate what could be done in our existing linear suite,” said Klafkowski.
“The Film Master came closest to that mark but it also brings a whole load of other things to the table: the ability to add an indefinite number of layers, noise reduction, clean-up tools, motion tracking and so on.”


“We are delighted that The Farm Group has added a second Film Master system, confirming its ability to grade quickly and reliably for broadcast where deadlines are tight and you typically only get a day to finish an entire programme, “ added Simon Cuff, President and COO, Digital Vision.
