EditShare Adds ASSIMILATE to List of DI Workflow Partners

Saturday, April 18, 2009

EditShare has announced a technology partnership with ASSIMILATE, a leading developer of high-resolution and stereoscopic applications for the DI market. The new development combines EditShare's XStream shared storage solutions with ASSIMILATE's SCRATCH Digital Process Solution, enabling real-time DPX and RED 4K workflows across DI and non-DI post-production equipment. This new integration offers EditShare's highly-popular Project Sharing with unmatchable real-time performance to SCRATCH artists.

The newly integrated solution will be demonstrated at NAB 2009 (April 20 to 23 in Las Vegas, NV) at EditShare Booth SL6420.

"For many years, EditShare has been at the forefront of Network Attached Storage solutions for popular post-production tools from Adobe, Apple, Avid and more. With the introduction of digital cameras such as the RED ONE Digital 4K Camera providing stunning performance, there is now a significant move toward DI workflows. EditShare XStream is a key component in enabling DI production pipelines to be fully integrated and tapeless from acquisition to finishing," comments Andy Liebman, CEO and founder, EditShare. "EditShare guarantees real-time performance and image quality while facilitating cross-workflow media sharing with non-DI applications and systems, freeing facilities from bringing work into digital and putting it back to tape."

EditShare XStream allows an entire facility to be connected, from ingest to delivery of the final cut. EditShare is agnostic to any specific manufacturer so EditShare XStream has been engineered to work seamlessly with any application supporting Gigabit Ethernet and 10 Gigabit Ethernet. EditShare XStream takes advantage of PCIe infrastructure to combine high data rate streams such as DPX with a large number of simultaneous video streams and almost limitless storage capability.

"SCRATCH includes a rich tool set of cost-effective real-time post tools - conform, construct, color grading, and finishing - which have made it a key enabler in the migration to digital intermediate pipelines by post production houses for many years now. While SCRATCH is resolution independent, it's ideal for tapeless workflows at digital 2K and 4K," says Jeff Edson, CEO, ASSIMILATE. "Combined with EditShare XStream storage, users will experience a seamless, extremely efficient workflow that can greatly increase productivity."
