cineSync gains a better view for Vantage Point

Sunday, 30 December 2007

Production and post for Columbia Pictures' new film Vantage Point was based in London, but Vancouver based Rainmaker Digital were called on to complete many of the film's complex effects shots. To enable London based VFX supervisor Paddy Eason to easily communicate with the Canadian crew, he utilised cineSync.

From the article:

Eason supervised all of Rainmaker's work from the production's base in London via daily cineSync sessions. “Rainmaker would FTP 1K QuickTimes, and we'd go back and forth, drawing on frames. My notes would then be inserted into their tracking database. Then we'd do the final approvals at 2K. It only took a couple of iterations at each stage, so it was very efficient,” Eason says. “Of course, I wasn't in Vancouver day-by-day, feeling the pain of getting this done.”
