Post Production Linear and
Non-Linear Editing
The editing
facilities at OCT consist of a digital linear inter-format
suite and three Final Cut Pro suites
The digital
linear suite is composed of digital beta, betaSP and DVCam
machines tied together with an EditWare 500 series editor
and Ross Synergy switcher. This suite is can edit up to 3
hrs digitally on DVCam tapes, easily handling multi-cam and
long format projects. This suite is also equipped with a Pinnacle
DVE Extreme effects unit and a Pinnacle Deko 2000 character
generator for complete post-production editing.
The three
Final Cut Pro suites can ingest media from either BetaSP,
or DV Cam, or Digital Betacam via the Omneon file server.
Both suites are equipped with Adobe photoshop and Adobe after
Efx. Both suites are equipped with FinalCut Pro HD, DVD Studio
Pro 3 with LiveType and Motion for animated graphics. An AVID
Unity system facilitates the storage of media and networking
among the non-linear suites. External audio boards and video
scopes enhance the quality control of media in all of the
suites.
All non-linear
suites are interconnected to the server, allowing the editors
to transfer files and completed projects between each suite
and directly to the on-air server for broadcast, keeping the
projects in the digital realm. The on-air server broadcasts
at DV25 level.
