Technician

With the advent of Digital Cinema, the job of DIT was created. And with ever growing resolutions and recording bitrates, entire days work can be lost if it is not left in the hands of a secure data handler.
Acting as the bridge between on-set workflow and post production, the DIT is responsible for bringing all video material shot safely and securely onward into post production.

The Benefits

> Security

All files are backed up and QC'd using Pomfort Silverstack Lab, which verifies every bit of data transferred, so there’s no loss of information, and with an option of having a calibrated color monitor as well for grading and monitoring.

> Speed

With resolutions of up to 8K, the turnover on each camera card can be greatly improved using fast RAID systems utilizing the latest technology.

> Faster Editing

Everything is boosted by on-set creation of offline proxy files for editing, applied with LUT of your choosing, or graded from scratch on set.

> Mobility

Using a 3.6 KW Ecoflow Delta Pro generator (with a 2kw gas generator for backup) and a 4x4 Ford 150 Pickup, I’m able to reach most locations in Iceland, and operate a DIT lab out of it, regardless of conditions. And as the Ecoflow Delta Pro generator is charged using green energy, that drastically reduced my dependency on carbon fuel for electricity.

If you need to send video material internationally through the internet, or have questions regarding technical issues, I’m your man.
