Codex Digital is currently providing digital laboratory and related workflow technology to Los Angeles-headquartered Pivotal Post to support its new Digital Mobile Lab service.

Pivotal Post, which supplies state-of-the-art editorial systems to film and television productions worldwide, is using Codex's Digital Lab system as the hub of a new mobile workflow for backing up digital camera media, processing dailies and preparing deliverables for editorial and other post production processes. The service, which is designed to support the many film productions currently using Codex recording technology, allows film and television productions to perform on-set or on-location much of the digital laboratory work that formerly required a post production facility.

Lightcraft Technology, a developer of advanced visual effects technology for the film and television industries, announced the sale of a Previzion system to Wicked Liquid FX for use in multiple production projects including several infomercials. Lightcraft’s Previzion is a visual effects system that provides a combination of real time high precision camera tracking, sophisticated rendering, and VFX quality keying that makes it the ideal solution for use in on-set compositing of virtual backgrounds and CGI characters.
