The Northlight 2 is a pin-registered film scanner that
supports 35mm, 65mm and 16mm formats. The scanner will allow Avenue to work
with 2K, 4K or 6K log scans that feed the Baselight grading system. The scanned
frames will be transferred over the studio’s high-speed network to create a
tapeless environment, and the final sequence will be generated by Baselight to
any SD or HD format.
The Baselight Four includes eight Dual Core Opteron grading
processors, plus dedicated I/O and GUI control system PCs. It is designed for
HD, 2K and proxy-based 4K grading. Its advanced multi-node architecture
accelerates all the features of the standard Baselight system by a factor of
four.
