Expanding German post and restoration facility increases Nucoda solutions
London, UK, 21 February 2012 – Image Systems has announced that Studio Hamburg, a major post production and broadcast services provider, has further expanded its Nucoda DI suite within its post production department. Following a rigorous testing period that saw Studio Hamburg review a number of high-end colour grading systems, the facility selected a third Nucoda Film Master with Precision control panel.
The Nucoda system was chosen due to Studio Hamburg’s strong confidence in the system, its high recommendation by colourists and its ability to fully meet the workflow requirements of the facility.
The Nucoda Film Master systems at Studio Hamburg are used to restore and grade television, film and archive projects. Christian Schöppl, head of film- and video-department, Studio Hamburg Postproduction explains, “Our suite of Nucoda Film Master systems provides us with the most efficient workflows enabling editing, de-graining and grading for projects that have very tight deadlines. We often have a fast rotation between systems and it’s important for us to maximise the time available to achieve the highest quality work. As an existing Nucoda house we have great confidence in the system and now with the new Precision panel we have further improved flexibility and performance.”
The Nucoda Film Master systems enable Studio Hamburg’s colourists to create complex visual looks and styles for projects including 2k and 3D stereoscopic. Studio Hamburg has already graded a music project for Sony: Lang Lang – the third dimension at Berghain in 3D using the system. Schöppl concludes, “We’re delighted that we’ve been able to expand our Nucoda restoration and grading offering providing our customers with a state-of-the-art suite that meets all of their requirements.”
