Taiwan's Modern Cinema invests in Nucoda Film Master

London, UK – 28 June 2010 Digital Vision has today announced that Modern Cinema based in Taipei City, Taiwan has selected a Nucoda Film Master grading system to form the heart of its colour grading suite. The system significantly improves speed and creativity and is being used to grade and finish movies, commercials and music videos. The system was installed by Altec International Ltd.

For the majority of projects material is captured from Red One and Canon 5D/7D, 35mm/16mm film. After preliminary editing and acquiring an EDL, footage is conformed and graded by colourist Chad Yang using Nucoda Film Master. According to client requirements the result is output to HD cam, Digital Betacam or TGA and TIFF sequences.

  • Keyer + shape partial grading
  • Layer grading and editing
  • DVO effect in grain/fix/dust/steady/flicker
  • Non-linear mode of operation
  • EDL conform operation process
  • Auto level function
  • Unlimited use of colour grading tools

Shawn Chen, General Manager of Modern Cinema, explains, “The first Film Master project, which was completed last month, was a three minute colour commercial for Ta Chong Bank TV for Greatland Films. As expected the toolset worked perfectly and we are looking forward to further projects in the coming weeks.”
