Digital Dailies
In recent years more and more production companies have come to see the disadvantages of a typical
telecine-based workflow. Colors, geometries and the complete look of the offline image data can be dra-
matically different to how the final result will appear after high resolution scans. Very often the director
or DoP will be puzzled by inconsistencies between the offline cut and the final online edit.
With the ARRISCAN these inconsistencies need no longer exist. Dailies can be scanned at a reduced
resolution very quickly and stored on disks for further use. Once the edit decision list is available the film
can be scanned at a higher resolution and higher dynamic range, and the results will match the color
and geometry of the lower resolution dailies.
The ARRISCAN has opened up dramatic workflow enhancements:
n Dailies and high resolution scans will match in color and geometry
n Grading of digital dailies can be easily reproduced in the final grading process
n Digital dailies data can be used for direct low res distribution
n 2K dailies data can even be used for final results
n Data can be directly stored on mass storage, with no transfer
engine or color space conversion required
n One device (ARRISCAN) can be used for dailies and finals
Digital Dailies Base Package
In addition to these advantages, the ARRI team has developed
specific features for the digital dailies workflow and made them
available in the Digital Dailies Base Package option.
In this software update, the ARRISCAN operator will get a live
preview while winding. This preview is a monochrome image
showing the content of a film reel 'on-the-fly'.
The base package also includes an additional speed increase:
n 1.5 fps for 6K oversampled to 4K
and 6K oversampled to 2K
n 5 fps for 3K oversampled to 2K
