11. ls Most commercials are finished in HD resolution and therefore do not require resolu tions higher than 2K The ARRISCAN Speed3K model features a maximum scanning resolution of 3K oversampled to 2K and is designed for precisely these kinds of applications It delivers high end image quality at a superior speed and fits seamless ly into a tapeless workflow Scanning in 2K resolution and simultaneously storing 1K proxies allows for a highly paralleled workflow The 1K proxies are used for best light color correction because many agencies like to work with material that already has the look of the commercial in the edit suite The deliverables for the edit can be generated traditi onally as tapes or rendered in DNxHD format which allows for fast import into an FILM SCANNING O ra n T 9 T Avid system What makes this workflow so interesting is the fact that visual effects work and color grading can begin before editing is finished because all the footage is present on disks with the full latitude and in high resolution Tape to tape color correction processes such as a first transfer become obsolete and the time that is apparently lost by using a non real time film scanner can easily be regained The advantages for a commercials workflow at a glance Complete negative information will be transferred to digital data No artist is necessary for the scanning processes Full grading can be done on the scans No additional equipment l
