The Best Storage Solution for Streamlining Your Post-Production Workflow
Jul 31, 2024
As a video creator, your camera source video and audio files are the most valuable asset you have. While project files are typically small and easy to back up, and almost everything else can be recreated, losing your source video files means losing everything.
Post-production involves handling enormous amounts of data. From raw footage to final edits, sound files to special effects, the volume of data can be overwhelming. Reliable, fast and easily accessible storage ensures that all these assets are securely stored and easily accessible.
ORICO offers efficient storage, backup, and data sharing solutions, significantly optimizing video production, enhancing collaborative environments, and protecting all files. Whether you are an individual YouTuber, filmmaker or involved in on-site DIT media management and post-production collaboration workflows, you can experience unprecedented productivity.
Recommends on Reliable Post-Production Storage
Pre-Production
The management of files on a film set is of utmost importance, which is why modern production teams are increasingly valuing the role of the DIT (Digital Imaging Technician), especially in a large-scale production team.
ORICO Data Matrix provides real-time hybrid storage for post-production productivity.
In pre-production, Data Matrix provides DIT imaging management, powerful transcoding capacity and meets initial editing needs. After filming, DIT (Digital Imaging Technician) can import the camera source files into Data Matrix’s built-in SSD at a high speed of CFe 1500MB/s, save then start post-production immediately when back to studio.
On-site personnel can immediately output the footage from the Data Matrix to a large screen via HDMI™ (8K@30Hz) for detailed viewing and confirmation, resulting in clearer image quality. The team can also perform first cuts on-site using Thunderbolt™ 4, significantly reducing the workload of the post-production team.
Overall, with Data Matrix, pre-production team can experience as below:
- 1500MB/s High-speedimport of memory cards to Data Matrix
- On-site playback via HDMI™
- On-site rough cut with direct connection to workstation via Thunderbolt™ 4 port
Post-Production Powerhouse
After import into Data Matrix, built-in SSD delivers up to 3000MB/s editing speed. You can work with massive 3D environments that were previously impossible to render. Run complex particle simulations. Perform fast video processing, video editing, 3D interaction, video transcoding, code compiling, color grading, photo editing and more in real time, without latency. The challenges of 4K/8K large file loading, editing, and saving have never been disturbing.
With Data Matrix, post-production team can experience as below:
- USB-C 40Gbps supports Thunderbolt™ 4/3/USB4 and backward, directly connects to Mac
- Fastest I/Operformance
- USB 3.2 Gen 2high speed transfer
- Daisy-chain up to 5 Data Matrixs or DAS for expanding fivefold storage space
- 8K UHD display
Seamless Access to a Long-Term File Repositor
After completing the current audio and video editing tasks on the Data Matrix, save the finished files to the WD Red HDD in Data Matrix. Or externally daisy-chain and connect the other Data Matrixs to keep the storage space available for the next project. You can also project the video via HDMI 8K@30Hz for playback and verification at any time.
Private Cloud Storage Enables Remote Collaboration
ORICO NAS (MetaBox and MetaCube series) also offers real-time data storage for team sharing and collaborating. During post-production, large volumes of media files and folders can be transmitted between you and your colleagues at lightning-fast speed.
