Pablo Rio Completes First 6K Post On 'Gone Girl'
Quantel's Pablo Rio colour and finishing system has been used by Hollywood post house Light Iron to complete the world's first 6K feature post production on 'Gone Girl'.
The David Fincher thriller was finished at Light Iron's Los Angeles facility following the upgrade of one of the house's six Pablo Rios, with additional GPUs to support the 8K workflow. A Quantel Genetic Engineering 2 shared workflow system was used to complete the 6K colour correction.
Shot in 6K on an EPIC RED Dragon, 'Gone Girl' is the third David Fincher movie to go through post at Light Iron, following 'The Social Network' and 'The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo'. The film is an adaption of Gillian Flynn's 2012 novel and tells the story of a writer (Ben Affleck) who becomes a suspect when his wife (Rosamund Pike) goes missing.
Pablo Rio runs on PC hardware and uses NVIDIA Maximus multi-GPU technology to deliver realtime performance at 4K 60p. Pablo Rio is available as both software only and as a range of Quantel-backed turnkey systems. Genetic Engineering 2 provides shared storage and workflow for up to four Pablo Rio systems.
Light Iron CEO Michael Cioni said: “We had to have an 8K DI system in house to accommodate the immense size of the Gone Girl 6K workflow. Together with Quantel we boosted our Pablo Rios and built the world's first 8K DI system, giving us 6K playback in realtime, in multiple rooms. Pablo Rio and GE2 is the future; its power and storage is unbeatable as the industry looks to 4K workflows and beyond."
Quantel Marketing Director, Steve Owen, said: "Light Iron is leading the post industry with its pioneering high resolution workflows. Michael and his team are always looking ahead to what's next in the industry - Gone Girl is the latest example of how they push the boundaries of what's possible. It's great that Pablo Rio and GE2 are supporting their vision for post."
