Services – Roush Media

Now offering 4k HDR color grading & mastering

ROUSH Media is now mastering HDR10 and Dolby Vision for streaming services.

4K HDR has improved picture quality with enhanced dynamic range and a wider color gamut. This new master and deliverable can open more distribution options as HDR content is in high demand from the streaming services like Netflix & Amazon. The images will blow you away. It’s like Dolby Atmos for picture.

Image matters and Quality counts. That is why we both care about HDR (HIGH Dynamic Range) and once you see it you will too.

Cameras have been able to capture high dynamic range color for a long time including film negative stock. Our ability to see all of it at one time was not possible till now. Our Sony BVM x300 monitor can show 10 times the amount of light of a standard r.709 monitor

The new suite also features our new DI system & our most powerful color system yet, capable of working in 8K!

“4K HDR is a much bigger & better canvas for your colorist to paint your pictures onto. Now we can make your pixels better not just bigger. This all leads to creating the best audience experience we can. ” Keith Roush

HDCAM SR Mastering

Services

When you need to master your project to HDCAM SR or other format allow us to help you do it right the first time at great rates.

HDCAM SR tapes hold images at a resolution of 1920×1080 and the typical frame rates are 23.98psf, 25psf, 50i, and 59.94i. Color space choices are RGB 4:4:4 or YUV 4:2:2 and will vary depending on the end use and source material. This format has 12 channels of audio which allows you to place your discreet 5.1, Lt-Rt, M&E and anything else you might need. These choices coupled with the best picture quality available on tape is why HDCAM SR is the current industry standard for distribution of your film or TV program.

We can master and QC this format from just about any file based digital format. Typical source files are QuickTime ProRes HQ & 444, uncompressed 10bit, & DPX image sequence files.

From your drive and we will load your media into our high speed fibre channel connected SAN (RoushSAN) and perform a series of checks and setup procedures. Some of the checks are to format bars, tone, slate, audio channel assignment, timecode format the tape, ensure the correct color space for the files, and check the video and audio levels to meet with the SMPTE specification. This is all done to insure the master is good before it is made. Then we do a spot check of the tape to verify the integrity of the mastered program. Optionally we can provide a full written Quality Control (QC) Report of the master where a trained QC Operator views every frame in multiple passes to alert you to any potential issues that may arise. We will explain to you in plain English what, if any, issues there are.

Systems that we employ for output are DVS, AJA Kona, Black Magic, Final Cut Pro, Avid, Nucoda, & Da Vinci Resolve.
