ROOT6 Technology adds digital dailies workflow for RED ONE camera to ContentAgent (20/10/2008)

ROOT6 Technology will demonstrate an end-to-end automated digital dailies workflow for users of the RED ONE camera via ContentAgent, ROOT6 Technology's universal content management, repurposing and distribution platform.

Besides transcoding RAW R3D files or low-res proxies for offline editing, HD mastering or 4K finishing on Mac and Avid systems, ContentAgent can also transcode R3D files to all commonly used file formats for output and distribution to parties involved in the dailies production process. Associated metadata may either be burnt-in or included as part of an XML file.

The dailies workflow may be fully automated and output options include ftp, email, web, RSS and interactive DVD with no authoring experience required. And, in the case of DVDs, workflows may easily be constructed to produce individually branded copies for the Director, DoP, Cameraman etc. Once established, the automated workflow is infinitely repeatable by non-technical operators.

Commenting on the support for the RED ONE camera by ContentAgent, ROOT6 Technology's MD Marcus Hume-Humphreys said, "The industry's enthusiasm for RED ONE is entirely understandable; making the codec available on ContentAgent ensures that the dailies community will have ultimate flexibility to create and automate its workflow, producing appropriate and cost effective deliverables."
