Triangle Post Becomes Canada's First Forscene Service Provider

Forbidden Technologies has partnered with Toronto post-production house Triangle Post.

The company has incorporated Forscene into its post-production services business, making it the first in Canada to do so. Forscene will be available to Triangle's clients and the Toronto broadcast community to complement existing Avid nonlinear editing (NLE) systems.
Forscene integrates with existing infrastructures to complement pre-existing workflows and, because it is cloud-based and available on any computer, tablet, or smartphone with an Internet connection, production teams can use Forscene for any or all parts of the production process including logging, editing, review, and approval from anywhere in the world.
In Triangle Post's case, Forscene offers clients the ability to prepare for their edit before post-production begins. Online access enables Triangle's clients to work with media stored on servers and to collaborate with others to log, edit, and review their project from any location, before transferring to Avid.
It also enables production staff who aren't well-versed in Avid to begin the shot selection and editing process. A producer can create a rough cut in Forscene and then transfer the project to an Avid suite for further editing and finishing.
Matthew Bush, president of Triangle Post, first became aware of Forscene at this year's NAB conference. He said: "At first I thought it was too simple, but then I realized that simplicity was the key. Forscene worked, and it was easy to understand. I also saw how well it integrated with our existing Avid workflows."
"With Forscene, Triangle Post can offer its clients a lower-cost, easy-to-use, yet powerful option to supplement the Avid system. And being able to offer the convenience of the cloud and enable remote collaboration is a bonus for everyone," said Jeff Krebs, Forbidden's regional manager for Canada and the Eastern US. "Forscene's ease of use allows anyone on the production team to be up and running in minutes. It includes familiar storytelling tools to satisfy editors and it is fast and efficient from ingest to distribution."
