Telecine
Film to Video and Video to Video Transfer
Telecine transfer is made for commercials, music clips and also for short and long feature films with color correction, one light or keycode. Sound synchronization is also possible and in this way the producer obtains in a very short time the video transferred material with images and sound, all together.
Syncsound in Telecine
The Aaton Keylink telecine film code reader is currently the only contact-free, 100% frame accurate available machine: no dust generator while shuttling freshly processed negatives. Also, it brings the colorist permanent control over the physical transfer parameters which makes all the difference between a 98% and a 100% accurate code reader.
Keylink is to date the only system that accurately identifies 24 fps film images in the PAL world under the 24+1 pull-down system. It handles real-time 23.98 fps shooting for NTSC and 24 fps film timecode on telecines running at 30 fps.
The flex files the editor receives contains all the possible technical specifications and data available: audio timecode, video timecode, keycode, video tape number, lab reel number, scene number, take number, shooting date, camera speed, sound roll number, camera reel number + comments.
The correct reading of keycode is double checked:
transfer file list with all keycode punch numbers for every camera reel made during the telecine preparation
tape checking in telecine after recording
Besides the flex files (FLX) we can deliver on request also, ALE, ATN, FTN and ODB files.
Sound synchronisation is made by using smart slate and normal slate as well in the same fast conditions.
It can be done also with In Camera Aaton Code or Arri Code if the shooting crew uses this system.
Indaw & InstaSync deliver location recordists and telecine colorists from the "seven-seconds-before-camera-start" preroll hassle. InDaw never require the play-back machine to stop, nor does it lose the slightest audio sample on Smpte timecode breaks induced by recorder stops and starts; a unique feature. It all starts with the InDaw workstation designed to handle all the audio sync situations a transfer facility encounters - including the 23.976/24.002/29.97 ndf ones. The InstaSync option which turns Keylink into the fastest syncing machine around: with a 2/100 sec. seek time it surpasses the 1 to 5 sec. of the best existing audio synchronisers. InstaSync is so fast. it totally eliminates the start - of - take sound voids commonly found in one-light non - stop transfers.
