HTC by Public Pool

The Team at "www.thepublicpool.com" brought me some RedCam footage to grade for HTC's new TVC's. Online Flame done by "www.voodoofx.co.za/"
Public Pool are also heading up monthly film forums, which have become great networking & learning events - http://www.theforumsa.com/
Together we have also done a few tests with the REDCAM to find out the true exposure latitude of the camera. Expect the result to be released soon on "theforumsa" site.

Fokof Polisiekar - documentary feature

I was privileged enough to grade the "Fokof Polisiekar" film.
Well done to the "Fly On The Wall" team for making the best ZA music Rockumentary
unfortunately the low digital projection quality in most local cinemas doesn't do justice to the work put into the grading.

Before Grading

RED CAMERA R3D Grading


Been doin a number of tests on BaseLight with the R3D files from REDONE camera.
So Easy!!!!! - copy R3D files to BaseLight system - Choose output format eg. HD,2K or 4K - grade or one light - real time render of prefered format eg. DPX or QuickTime for edit master. DONE.
We would usually keep the master R3D files on our system for conform at later stage or make a clone to HDCamSR for transport or conform.


FilmLight Baselight Cape Town South Africa ZA

I recently joined HDHUB Digital Post Services in Cape Town South Africa.
Happy to be working on the BaseLight finally, Even happier to be back in Cape Town ZA.
BaseLight is certainly the most sophisticated and ergonomic grading system Ive ever used.
Set up in a TrueLight Certified DI theater with 4k Sony projector with xenon bulbs
