Right: The Bones Dailies system utilized in DP Dailies incorporates the ASC CDL to track color metadata through every step of the workflow. Below: A dailies room inside Mega Playground’s facility. The DP Dailies pipeline bridges dailies and the DI to protect the cinematographer’s intent from the shoot to the finished film. same look to the new scans. “The density values would be the same,” says Brown. “It’s just a different file resolution.” One of the things Brown hopes to improve with DP Dailies is the relationship between the dailies timer and the cinematographer; the gap between film capture and digital dailies can sometimes create a disparity between the cinematographer’s intent and the interpretation of that intent by the person sitting at the controls in the timing suite. “The dailies colorist should be there to watch the cinematographer’s back, because he can see things in scene context and can grade and balance from scene to scene,” says Brown. “This can also benefit the editor, because he can get the footage in the proper order and see how it’s going to look,” he adds. “Everybody wins, but the person who wins biggest is the cinematographer.” At press time, DP Dailies had been used on four feature films: In Northwood, Last Night, Paperman and Solitary Man. On a recent visit to Los Angeles, Brown ran the specs by Curtis Clark, ASC, chair of the Society’s Technology Committee, and Clark was optimistic about its potential. “Terry is addressing the challenges that exist [in film dailies], creating a closed-loop system and linking it to the DI finish,” he says. “If you’re using a system like that, it’s easier to make sure the information will transfer in a more accurate way.” Crudo notes: “The solution to this problem has to be simple, because simple is better. The person who creates a technology that fully puts image control back in the cinematographer’s hands will have found the Holy Grail.” I 62 July 2009
