Digital Dailies

In recent years more and more production companies have come to see the disadvantages of a typical telecine-based workflow. Colors, geometries and the complete look of the offline image data can be dra- matically different to how the final result will appear after high resolution scans. Very often the director or DoP will be puzzled by inconsistencies between the offline cut and the final online edit.

With the ARRISCAN these inconsistencies need no longer exist. Dailies can be scanned at a reduced resolution very quickly and stored on disks for further use. Once the edit decision list is available the film can be scanned at a higher resolution and higher dynamic range, and the results will match the color and geometry of the lower resolution dailies.

The ARRISCAN has opened up dramatic workflow enhancements:

nDailies and high resolution scans will match in color and geometry

nGrading of digital dailies can be easily reproduced in the final grading process

nDigital dailies data can be used for direct low res distribution

n2K dailies data can even be used for final results

nData can be directly stored on mass storage, with no transfer engine or color space conversion required

nOne device (ARRISCAN) can be used for dailies and finals
