Award recognises innovation in camera equipment.
(Verneuil sur Avre, France) Transvideo, a leading company in electronic design
for the film, video and avionics industries, is delighted to have won a prestigious
cinecAward for its CineMonitorHD 3DView monitor, the world’s first HD
SDI monitor with synchroniser for 3D D-Cinema field use. The award was presented
at cinec 2010, held in Munich 18-20 September 2010.
Just six cinecAwards are presented by the Bavarian Society for the Advancement
of Film Technology (FGF), for innovative and trendsetting products for motion
picture technology. Transvideo won the Camera Equipment award.
Jacques Delacoux, President and Managing Director, Transvideo, said, “We
are proud and delighted to have won this prestigious award. Transvideo is constantly
monitoring trends and developments in the motion picture industry, and planning
ahead to create tools to aid content creators. As the nascent 3D industry really
begins to flourish, we already have a monitor that 3D stereographers can trust,
with the functions they need.”
The CineMonitorHD 3DView is currently being used by Wim Wenders and Alain Derobe
on the forthcoming feature film Pina, as well as several other movies around
the world, including Harold & Kumar and Darkest Hour.
The CineMonitorHD family includes monitors with a synchroniser to fulfill the
requirements of the growing digital community that wants to shoot 3D films with
two DSLR cameras or other non-genlockable cameras. It also includes some wireless
units which give freedom to the Stereographer on the set. The CineMonitorHD
3D View includes several modes to help the operator to correlate cameras and
to preview the image in false colours mode. It also features multi-format inputs
(HD/SD-SDI, HDMI and composite video) and a useful genlock analyser that precisely
analyses the synchronisation status of the cameras in a graphical way. The 3DView
family comes with 6” to 15” screens.
