Multidyne To Unveil Two Cinematic Workflows

MultiDyne Video & Fiber Optic Solutions returns to NAB New York this week with two cinematic workflow demos that show the strength of MultiDyne's proven technology to prepare and remotely power cinematic cameras for live multi-camera productions.

The demonstrations will pair Sony cameras with signal transport and power extension products from several flagship MultiDyne product lines.

The primary demo will showcase how MultiDyne’s Silverback-V 4K1 fiber camera adapters convert Sony VENICE 2 full-frame cinema cameras into live event cameras, applying the aura of cinematic storytelling to the more direct broadcast-style workflow that SMPTE studio cameras provide. That means greater ease of use, reliability and control for camera crews during productions while retaining benefits like 4K resolution, HDR and Wide Color Gamut that inject the dramatic look and feel of cinematic productions into live and live-to-tape events. The demo will also feature a studio viewfinder for the VENICE 2 cameras.

SilverBack-V fiber transceivers are adaptable to any digital cinema or broadcast camera, and multiplex video, audio and data signals for multicamera 4K/UHD productions onto a single tactical or SMPTE hybrid fiber cable with robust connectivity and remote powering. The primary NAB New York demo will also leverage MultiDyne’s small-footprint VB Series as a base station for signal transport, and MultiDyne’s JUICE-48 SMPTE hybrid fiber power supplies to send power to cameras over fiber.

MultiDyne will showcase a similar cinematic multicamera workflow to achieve the same production benefits for live events featuring PTZ cameras. This secondary demo marries the cost-efficient VB Series fiber transceivers with Sony FR7 cinema full-frame PTZ robotic cameras. This demo will employ technologies from MultiDyne’s APE family of advanced power extension solutions, including MultiDyne’s HUT-APE SMPTE hybrid power supply.

This demo accentuates MultiDyne's specialised technologies for demanding accessory power requirements, including a separate VB Series signal transport configuration using POE++ to power FR7 cameras over the network. It will also provide HDMI 2.0 support for menu feeds, demonstrating MultiDyne’s emphasis on addressing connectivity challenges for an increasingly diverse array of cameras.
