Data Lab
We offer full native support for a myriad current digital camera formats. Locomotive can process any file format and provide any format in return.
Locomotive offers dailies/rushes solutions for all budget types — including audio sync, color grading, transcoding, Avid / FCP / Premiere project setup, data backup, and secure online screening solutions.
Our engineers and systems are capable of very fast turnarounds. Frequently there’s no need for overnight lab processing, so digital dailies can be processed same-day — often the editor can be working on that morning’s footage by the time the shoot-day wraps.
Metadata
Data-centric workflows offer filmmakers great opportunity for swift, efficient, and flexible data management solutions. Metadata embedded within media files can not only aid in the organization of clips as they circulate throughout the production and post pipelines, but it can also track, protect, and breathe new life into content as it moves into distribution. Proper management of metadata is an essential element of tapeless workflows and modern media distribution.
Locomotive works closely with our clients to customize media-management solutions for each project based upon its workflow and distribution pathway.
