MCMILLAN INSTALL AVID DS V4 AT FINISHING POST

MCMILLAN, broadcast specialists, are working with Post-production Company Finishing Post to install the newly arrived AVID DS Version 4.0.
The installation is likely to make Finishing Post one of the first post-producers in the country with the ability to transfer projects and media between a Media Composer and the new DS system.
The new V4 pioneers a number of features new to editors and digital artists providing them with unlimited opportunity for experimenting with and fine-tuning within their environment.
Key features available in DS V4 include remote processing capabilities, expanded interoperability with other Avid systems, OMF audio for tighter integration with the Digidesign Pro Tools system, faster and more effective conforming with OMFi compositions and support for Softimage XSI software on the same system.
The extended workgroup support provides the ability to share DS media across projects, import sequences and clips from remote machines and automatically outsource effects to third party applications. The remote Processing option allows more simultaneous options producing a better result and final rendering times can be cut dramatically.
Finishing Post have previously post-produced work for companies including Honda, TNT, Unilever and Jaguar. (CMcL)
