NASCAR Media Group Chooses Quantel For Colour Correction

NASCAR Media Group has selected a Quantel Pablo non-linear colour correction system for the high end colour correction and editing suite at the NASCAR Plaza facility under construction in Charlotte, North Carolina.
The Pablo will be equipped with the stunning Neo control panel as well as Quantel's Stereoscopic 3D toolset. The Pablo will initially be involved in finishing and colour correction of the over 900 extensive post production projects done by NASCAR Media Group on a yearly basis.
The Pablo will also provide a full online post production environment, including handling native RED material and Stereoscopic 3D projects as NASCAR Media Group looks to embrace this new media opportunity for its wide ranging audience.
Jeff Lowe, NMG's Managing Director of Broadcast and Media Technology, said: "NASCAR Media Group is very excited to partner with Quantel in light of ever expanding needs for world-class colour correction of traditional workflows as well as new paradigm-changing technologies like that of RED.
"We are really looking forward to working with the new 3D option that allows Pablo to edit with 3D files in real time, something we could only do with Quantel. This fabulous system will be available for all major production projects in the south-eastern United States as NASCAR Media Group builds its state-of-the-art facility in Charlotte, NC."
Ray Cross, Quantel Chief Executive Officer, said: "With its reputation for excellence and the enormous audiences it commands, NASCAR Media Group is undoubtedly one of the world's leading sports media organisations.
"We're delighted that they have chosen Quantel technology as an important part of their future and we're very proud to be part of this exciting sport."
