One of 1080 Inc.'s creative
services is 1080 Entertainment, a TV series and feature film content
development and distribution company, which is currently working with the San
Antonio branch on 10 one-hour episodes of Jurassic Fight Club. The History Channel program will offer a new look
at prehistoric animals and the battles they fought millions of years ago.
"The name 1080 tells people where we are today," says
managing partner Don White. "For
30 years Match Frame has been a good name, but it really refers to the era of
one-inch linear edit bays. We've
gone beyond that with extensive HD post production for programming and
spots. So we're uniting our post
group under the 1080 banner, a name which immediately positions us in the HD
arena."
Match Frame has been posting hours of HD programming at the
San Antonio facility, while the Austin studio has been busy working on HD
spots. Earlier this year, the Austin branch moved to a new, larger, facility in
the heart of the city's Market District. The location is home to Autodesk
Inferno/Smoke with 2K capabilities and can handle HDCAM SR material in
4:4:4.
