Control Dailies - Fully Concurrent (Four Nodes) - Control Dailies offers Post Production facilities a highly concurrent environment that doubles throughput compared to traditional dailies workflows and allows the facility to deliver high quality results on time and on budget even with the high volume of footage digital cameras now produce. With a workstation dedicated to each operation and a high-bandwidth SAN, Control Dailies completes ingest, logging and synchronization, color correction, and encoding simultaneously.
MTI Film customizes each installation of Control Dailies to fit the customer’s existing equipment and workflow. Modules can be selected to support any configuration of camera and deliverable formats and can easily be expanded to support additional formats as new projects demand.
