LipSync Post installs Genetic Engineering
and improves efficiency by 50%

LipSync Post recently
installed a Quantel Genetic Engineering shared workflow solution
to support its two Quantel Pablo color correction suites and
iQ DI system.
All three systems can now work with the same shared media
without wasting valuable time transferring media between suites
or having to manage multiple different versions. As a result,
Colorist Lee Clappison estimates that LipSync Post is already
benefiting from a 50% improvement in efficiency, and anticipates
further gains "as we learn how to get even more out of
the new workflow possibilities that Genetic Engineering offers".
The majority of LipSync's work is movie DI, with the company
frequently handling all post production from scanning, effects,
sound and grading to deliverables. 'Sex&Drugs&Rock&Roll'
and 'Nowhere Boy' - recipients of six BAFTA nominations between
them - are two such recent projects.
LipSync has also just been awarded the post production for
the Ruby Films' production 'Jane Eyre', directed by Cary Fukunaga.
LipSync also specialises in longform TV - The BBC feature
'A Passionate Woman' starring Billie Piper is currently nearing
completion.
"We're able to do prep work such as dust busting, dropping
in effects shots, sync checking and versioning on the iQ while
the creative work continues uninterrupted on the Pablos. It's
a much better way to work from a creative point of view because
you don't interrupt the flow, and it's also greatly appreciated
by clients because it eliminates the hanging around waiting
for non-creative jobs to happen," Clappison explains.
As well as installing Genetic Engineering, LipSync has also
upgraded all its Quantel systems to the latest V4 software
and added the Stereo3D option. "We see the Stereo3D market
taking off rapidly now and offering real potential revenue
streams," Clappison adds, "We have run extensive
3D tests and we are now in a position to offer full-on Stereo3D
post production alongside our 2D expertise."
