Pipes are now Packets: What you really need to know about QC, monitoring & maintenance for IP

Fixes for the challenges of working in HDR and virtual production.
If you’ve ever been surprised by how color, lighting, or color difference mapping show up when working in HDR and virtual production, this podcast will explain how you can take control of and manage the picture you get on set.

Here’s what you’ll discover:

• How you can get consistent exposure levels across the screen (and why it’s so important)
• Why David can’t live without a waveform monitor on set
• A clever way to see where the deficiencies in color are
• What to do about the challenges of lighting when you’re using video arrays
• How you can handle the difficulties of lighting human faces under different lighting conditions
