Martin Bennett, VP Worldwide Marketing explains, “We‘ve always been highly regarded for our image science and premium solutions and with this new product range we continue that high standard. Customers at all levels can benefit from our technology with an array of solutions and price points that address specific tasks. Add to this our continued commitment to develop and include industry-leading tools for stereoscopic 3D workflow and image enhancement. In short we are enabling our customers to deliver the highest quality content to clients at a price to suit all budgets.”
Nucoda, the leading grading and finishing Nucoda platform now has a new pricing structure and two new solutions. The premium flagship Nucoda Film Master solution, as used by leading content creators including Pixar, has an entry price of €62K. To address the mid-range DI grading and dailies market, Digital Vision has released Nucoda Fuse with a retail price of €37k. Nucoda Fuse provides a comprehensive toolset for film, video and digital projects creating unique looks and visual styles in SD/HD, 2k/4k and stereoscopic 3D. At the entry-level, Digital Vision has introduced Nucoda Compose, a multi-faceted workstation for commercials, film and television post, which can also be used as a preparation station for Nucoda Film Master or Nucoda HD. Nucoda Compose has a retail price of €8k.
Digital Vision‘s continued commitment to the film/image content restoration sector, has seen the release of a totally new product range. Phoenix Finish is the flagship end-to-end restoration, re-mastering and delivery system, the mid-range solution Phoenix Refine, provides a complete toolset for advanced image restoration and enhancement, and the entry-level Phoenix Touch enables automated and manual image clean up and retouch.
At IBC 2010 leading colourists will demonstrate the 2010 software’s feature-rich toolset and extensive capabilities including additional stereo 3D tools and viewing modes, a new colour isolation keyer (I-Keyer) and updated file format enhancements including Arri Alexa support, MFX OP1a publishing and ALE file export.
As part of the 2010 software release, Digital Vision has included applications to increase the performance of these new products. The first, Turbine, introduces integrated and distributed background rendering for Phoenix and Nucoda solutions allowing rendering of multiple projects and compositions without tying up the client’s workstation. DVO Clarity, the next-generation of noise and grain reduction technology features automatic profiling of the source media for producing stunning images, virtually artifact free that retain original sharpness, whilst the speed and ergonomically enhanced DVO Fix automatically repairs imperfections associated with degraded film and image media.
Bennett concludes, “Our products have always been competitive and these new lines address the way in which the market has transformed over the last couple of years. It has always been our intention to deliver mid-level and entry-level systems because we know this is a requirement for some of our customers and it also allows us to continue to develop our business in new markets. When you buy into the Digital Vision philosophy you’re not just buying a system, you are buying into a hugely successful history and first-class support. We believe in taking our customers on a journey that continues and develops over many years; we don’t just sell systems and shut the door.”
