Geneva October 27th, 2012. Once more we are committing to our philosophy and implementing new standards in our products. New standards help postproduction companies, digital labs and archive workflows to become simpler and faster. VERSION 3.0 . use of a Flow Graph to define templates for render jobs for dailies, grading and IMF/OPL supporting different nodes like RESIZE. OUTPUT, etc. support of multi streaming rendering simultaneously, working in real time depending on the hardware IIF/ACES support for the complete postproduction pipeline: Onset and NearSet dailies, conforming, color grading, DCI DCP and IMF mastering IMF implementation (SMPTE standard) using a flow graph including IIF/ACES support new OnSet product called “MISTsolo” for 1.3K EUR software only for DIT OnSet dailies supporting any native camera format with HD rendering output. uncompressed recording from any camera using single or dual SDI to DPX, TIFF or MXF PDF report generation for dailies support of rendering PROres 4:4:4 in Windows improvements on JP2K speed and rendering speed. creating DCP JP2K for 2K in real time without encoding board (Software Only) KDM and DKDM support for DCI Mastering HFR support direct GPU support for BlueFish (direct video and audio sync) native support of new WEISSCAM RAW format native support of CANON C300 native support of newest digital 4K AATON Penelope Camera Raw and ACES http://www.fdtimes.com/2012/09/11/aaton-penelope-delta/ generalized gang/group modes for metadata editing not just color correction parameters more color grading features: new features for Keyer new features for Shapes new blending modes for secondaries IIF/ACESsystem has been developed by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences technology committee IIF stands for “Image Interchange Format,” which refers primarily to the file format proposed to carry ACES information, which is itself based on ILM’s Open EXR format. ACES stands for “Academy Color Encoding Specification,” which refers to the color space used by the process. It is that color space that is the key to the proposed system. IMF “Interoperable Master Format” standardized from the SMPTE “Society Of Motion Picture and Television Engineers” is designed for a file based architecture (image, audio and subtitles) that creates file-based packages for many video distribution channels. IMF allows flexible versioning and stores differences between versions, not flattened linear versions, IMF can use mezzanine level compression and offers Interoperability through constrained standards IMF is the fastest way to create final masters file based, storing video, audio, subtitles and rendering using MXF and XML lists and supporting versioning.

The addition of ACES and new cameras, along with the grading and mastering tools sounds great. It would be nice to see screenshots or videos of some of these new features if you have them.
More video tutorials about IMF mastering for tape less workflows and other quick start videos about how to use MIST and RAIN are coming. We are also doing some workshops with DoPs for hands-on demonstrations of real time workflows using the newest Aaton Penelope and also ARRI Alexa, RED Epic, Sony F3 & F65, Phantom and Weisscam. Hopefully also soon in US. It would be great having some feedback from colorists trying RAIN or MIST. Our products run on win7 64bit and supports NVIDIA GPU.
