Three-dimensional conversion tables.
Formats suitable for processes
postproduction
Video Assist generates open format files, which avoids leading to
complete the transcoding process. These are compatible with all
postproduction programs available on the market, so
you can work with your preferred software, for example, DaVinci Resolve
Studio. Also, Video Assist lets you record in ProRes or DNx format
10-bit connecting it to compatible cameras. Blackmagic RAW is the

Integrated indicators for
meet different standards
Video Assist devices include representations
signal graphs that allow a precise exposure level
in cameras and also guarantee compliance with the standards
telecasting. In this sense, they function as a monitor shaped
portable wave that gives the possibility to see the level of luminance
from the source or the signal reproduced. For its part, the vector
shows color intensity to a 100% SDI reference level.
In turn, the RGB chart is ideal for setting chromatic levels
suitable, while the histogram provides information about the
distribution of lights and shadows or loss of details. Cabe
highlight that these indicators can overlap the image, and its
time this can be seen in a small window at the top
Right of each indicator.
Recreates cinematic styles
with 3D conversion tables
When recording, digital cinematographic cameras use a space
logarithmic chromatic to preserve the dynamic range, which is
ideal for the postproduction process. However, when you are
images are seen on a monitor, they may look off, without
too much contrast. In this sense, the conversion tables
3D are the ideal solution, since they allow to attribute
a certain appearance during the shooting to have a better idea of how
He'll look at the material when he edits it. These can be applied temporarily
monitoring image quality or integrating files
Blackmagic RAW to use them when editing. Video Assist 7” 3G es
